Kintra Spirits 2002 The Rum Mercenary Black Label Collection Port Mourant Demerara 17yo 51.7% 700ml is a captivating rum that offers a blend of traditional craftsmanship and distinctive character. This limited-edition release, distilled in 2002 and bottled in 2020, hails from the renowned Port Mourant distillery in Guyana, celebrated for its unique wooden pot stills that impart a rich and complex profile to the rum.
On the nose, the rum presents an intense array of aromas, including leather, woody notes, figs, anise, and papaya. However, it also reveals surprising metallic notes intertwined with a mix of fruits and spices such as apples, pears, cloves, nutmeg, and ginger. The palate offers a harmonious balance of woody, allspice, anise, ginger, Demerara sugar, vanilla, and a peppery kick, complemented by a hint of bitterness and noble wood.
The finish is long and memorable, characterized by woody, burnt sugar, salty, peppery, and dry notes, with an intriguing cappuccino nuance. This rum provides a monolithic yet satisfying experience that reflects the essence of the Port Mourant distillery's style. Despite some metallic and unusual notes, this 17-year-old expression remains an authentic and enjoyable representation of Guyanese rum.
The Port Mourant distillery is renowned for its traditional wooden pot stills, which impart a distinct, complex character to its rums, setting them apart from other distilleries.
You can expect a complex and multifaceted flavor profile with woody, spicy, fruity notes, and hints of sweetness and warmth.
While this rum has already been aged for 17 years, it can still be enjoyed immediately or preserved for further aging, depending on your preference.
The Kintra Spirits 2002 The Rum Mercenary Black Label Collection Port Mourant Demerara 17yo is a well-crafted rum that stays true to the essence of Port Mourant.
