The Masam Port Mourant 2003 is a rare gem from Guyana, distilled in the Double-Wooden Pot Still at Demerara Distillers Limited (DDL) and aged for 17 years in Scotland. Bottled at an impressive 53.5% ABV with only 198 bottles produced, this rum offers a complex and rich experience. The nose is characterized by a blend of exotic fruits, vanilla, woody and smoky aromas, alongside signature Port Mourant notes such as olive, anise, and citrus fruits. Despite the oak influence, the rum remains delicately fruity on the palate with flavors of lime, cedar, almonds, and a slightly metallic note that adds to its complexity. Sweet woodiness and subtle spice lead to a medium to long finish, highlighted by barrel notes, licorice, and dark chocolate. With a charming nose and a complete, intricate palate, this Port Mourant stands out as a gourmand's delight, offering both sweetness and depth.
Sourced from the private collection of Silvano Samaroli and bottled under the Masam label, the Masam Port Mourant 2003 is a testament to the exceptional quality of rums curated by the brand. With its subtle wood notes and balanced fruitiness, this rum exudes an elegance and maturity that belies its 17 years. The combination of zesty fruits and spicy undertones makes for a delightful tasting journey. Although the finish might not be as lengthy, the overall impression of this Port Mourant is one of sophistication and satisfaction. As a top contender amongst rum aficionados, this bottling showcases the best of Guyanese distillation traditions and aging techniques, making it a must-have for collectors and connoisseurs alike.
