Uitvlugt Port Mourant 27 Year Old Tasting Notes

Picture this: A Jacuzzi in the garden surrounded by pine trees. Bathing caps keep long coconut-oiled hair out of the lavender-scented water and away from the flotilla of rubber ducks.

Colour: Apple juice.

Nose: Cinnamon-dusted pineapple en papillote and barbecued chops. Parmesan-crusted rodizio pork on metal skewers with a chrome pot of chimichurri sauce. Pineapple and banana fritters in syrup with dulce de leche ice cream and a coffee pot of rich coffee with hot cream and sugar crystals on the side. A newly polished silver vase of peonies, tulips and daffodils.

Palate: Mouth coating. The esters sing along with grilled banana, apple slices and pineapple dipped in thick Manuka honey served in a rubber pot. Sage, lemon verbena, chocolate black, coffee and nut cake and liquorice and blackcurrant sweets.

Finish: Grandma's gingerbread brushed with butter and dipped in spiced honey with star anise and cloves.

Meet The Founder

Michael Barbaria

Swell de Spirits was founded by Michael Barbaria in 2021. Michael's two great loves in life are exceptional spirits, and surfing. So he launched independent bottler Swell de Spirits to combine his love of both.

In a relatively short period Michael has made a big mark on the world of artisan spirits. And gained quite a fan base around the world. Rather than focus on one particular spirits category, Michael bottles them all - as he loves them all. From world whiskies, through rums, to cognacs and more. But what they all have in common is that they really are exceptional quality. Michael has an excellent palate and leans towards big flavour bombs. Each of his releases is beautifully present, and some of the label designs are works of pop art in their own right.
