BOW (91)

Port Mourant Still.
2 Years Tropical Aging

Serge Valentin (91)

Not a session without a Demerara! This one from the Port Mourant still, matured for two years in the tropics, then in Europe. The cognac cask was one of Hine's. Colour: gold. Nose: goodness gracious, this is perfect diesel oil blended with engine grease, anchovy brine, clay, Dutch liquorice (no wonder here), green bananas and black tapenade. With water: pure cane juice coming out, wet ashes, something basaltic, vinyl… And the smell of an old lamp amp on eleven. Quite. Mouth (neat): it's very tart, almost brutal, pungent, blade-y, full of salted liquorice and concentrated lime juice. Some ashes. With water: more salt, more brine, seawater, more anchovies, olives, sardines, cod brandade… Finish: long, on lemon and salt, plus olives and liquorice, and a little sweetness in the aftertaste. Mangos again? Comments: I'm not sure I got the cognac, but I sure got the greatness.
