Tasting Notes

Nose

Layers of sweet molasses over clean barley leads into rich, oily, viscous aromas. Red toffee apples, pear drops, baked pear, sweet vanilla crème anglaise and warm apple strudel.

Palate

Perfect texture. Sweet oak layered with dark treacle molasses, muscovado sugar and sweet vanilla. Stewed fruits, candied orange, marmalade, with hints of cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg and rum ice cream. Sticky toffee pudding, crème brȗlée, blue mountain latte and banana bread.

Finish

Rich, oily and viscous. The sugars combine with the malt’s natural oils to coat the mouth sublimely with pure molasses, treacle and buttery barley. Then cream soda , candied orange, banana bread and dark rum.

Colour

Pure liquid gold meets wild meadow honey.

This is a whiskey that responds to warmth and develops in the glass.

Description

Dunville’s VR 18 Year Old Port Mourant Rum Finish Single Malt Irish Whiskey

Those casks previously nurtured an incredibly rare 41 year old Demerara Rum from the world’s last surviving double wooden pot still. Founded in 1732, Port Mourant Estate produced some of the world’s finest Demerara Rums. Their casks were lined with rich dark molasses treacle, giving an intensity of flavour that new resonates almost half a century later through the nose, palate and finish of this rarest of whiskeys.

Alongside this award winning whiskey, collectors can enjoy a sample of the 41 year old rum that was disgorged from the Port Mourant casks which gave this whiskey its stunning flavour. Beautifully presented in a bespoke box alongside a replica Dunville’s Irish Whiskey antique mirror and a book detailing the Dunville’s story from its beginnings in 1808 to its revival in 2012. This carefully curated set is an exciting proposition for any whiskey or rum collector.
