Dark chocolate, dried plum and black tea run through this cask-strength Enmore REV from Guyana. The nose wins most people over — malty, fruity, resinous wood — while the palate turns intensely bitter, salty and charred. Several tasters call the 2006 a lighter, fruitier "REV Light" next to the legendary 1994s. A faint soapy violet note bugs a few. Give it long air.
The community says- Deep complex nose
- Chocolate & mocha

Summarized by AI from 81 community reviews.
Dark, bitter Enmore with a stunning nose Loved for its deep, complex nose and dark chocolate-mocha-dried fruit profile. The recurring catch: a strong bitterness on the palate, and a floral-soapy note some tasters can't unsee.

On the nose mainly dried fruits as well as subtle spice and wood notes. Surprisingly present on the palate, slight bitterness, plus the obligatory dried plum, leather, licorice, wood, also caramel sweetness – compared to the other 2006s with the most bitter note, which for me still remains in good balance. Aromatically quite appealing complexity. Besides the SBS my favorite, because compared to the rather round SBS a few more edges and corners appear here, which provides pleasant tension. Compared to the 1994 versions with much less weight, the plum notes here appear more in combination with currant, the dark tones of wood, licorice, leather and caramel are much less pronounced. Despite the aromatic complexity of this bottling, I am inclined to call it "REV Light." The spectrum of the 2006s also has its charm and the character is unmistakable, but in my eyes the REV profile benefits extremely from the long aging and the resulting complexity. The reference points for the younger bottlings are almost unfair, especially for dedicated lovers of the 1994 REVs. As an introduction to the fascinating world of heavy Demerara profiles, however, one of the best options, especially since the price points here are mostly still within a reasonable range.

Very spicy
Review by DomM
On their first encounter, SBS and Nobilis are very much toe to toe. Nose goes to Nobilis for a little more openness and complexity. SBS takes the palate with (comparably) less wood/bitterness which leaves more room for some dried red fruits, which I don’t really find in the Nobilis very much - on my first try at least 🤔 Both very nice REVs, if you do enjoy this kind of dark and bitter profile.
Review by Basti
In a direct comparison with the S.B.S 2006, both bottlings don't differ much on the nose. On the palate, the Nobilis brings out more roasted/spicy aromas and the fruity notes fall by the wayside. Overall, also slightly bitter. For me, both REVs are on par. Edit: Had it several times again in the glass, but there's something floral that I don't like so much on the palate. I still like the SoR a bit better.
Review by Thomas Wille
Beautiful REV 2006
Review by zabo
Edit: another direct comparison between the Rum Club and the Nobilis. Nobilis is ahead again this time. At the Franconian Tasting Gang Rum Grillen Summer Event, I let it compete against the S.B.S Guyana. In my opinion, I find this one a tick better. The third in the round was the new Rumclub Edt. 46, which was an uneven comparison as it couldn't keep up at all.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Very tasty! The first 2006 REV that reminds me of the SBS. Very harmonious and much less bitter and tiring than the romdeluxe. Really cool REV in top form. I celebrate this mocha, caramel note.
Review by Tschusikowsky
For me the best of the vintage so far. Slightly rough alcohol. Beautiful Guyana notes reminiscent of old bottlings. Molasses, licorice, tobacco, oak, dark chocolate. All relatively concentrated. Water brings even more wood and tobacco to the fore. Fits me very well overall.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
#5431 26.06.2025 Enjoying some samples while arranging my bottle collection, can see that it'll take a while before I'm done 😂 Nose Medium intense, wood, roasted, light anise, plum, faint leather, light berries, faint coffee. Palate Oily, round, balanced, wood, roasted, faint tannins, light tobacco, prunes, faint caramel, spice, faint pencil shavings, faint glue. Finish Long, wood, light roasted, light tannins, light berries, faint chocolate, light tobacco, faint herbal, prunes. Empty glass Light herbal, prunes, wood, faint metallic, light coffee, faint chocolate, light caramel. Needs to rest for a while to really open up.
Review by Jarek
Post-tasting with Franconian Tasting Gsng: Slight addition in the tasting because of the nose. I find it very tasty and pleasant today. Palate still can't quite keep up, even if I find the slight violet note less disturbing. A REV tasting today... there are four 1994s (Wild Parrot LMDW, RumClub Ed. 22, Rum Artesanal Ed . 2 and Valinch & Mallet). In addition, the 2006 from Nobilis is a little out of the ordinary. The Nobilis is on the fruity side and the least woody due to the shorter ageing period. The alcohol is very well integrated. A delicious drop! Addition: I left all five in the glass for a long time afterwards (>1h). And then the violet note already described by others came through more or less in all of them. For me, it is rather disturbing, soapy. It was strongest in the Nobilis.
Review by Pavel Spacek
.. Enmore - drive distillery, now just a functional distillation device. Probably the only wooden distillation device in the world that is very popular. Enmore rums have flavors of ash, leather, heavy wood, which especially excites lovers of smoky whiskies. And if the producer adds a bit of molasses to the rum in the traditional Guyanese way, you have a unique, very strong and heavy rum in the bottle. One of my favorites.
Review by Mike H.
I tasted this rum at a store this week and it simply blew me away. Extremely complex and tasty.
Review by RumTaTa
Nose: very fruity, versatile and decidedly beguiling. On the palate (unfortunately) with a strong bitterness that extends far into the finish. Overall, however, very good and complex.
Review by Frank
Once again a REV and I like this style very much.Full and complex nose: dark malty, dark fruity and dark spicy at the same time. Dried black currant and pickled Amarena cherry with some raisin. Chocolate and vanilla powder right next to it. It seems slightly burnt and charred, plus sweet pipe tobacco and neat dry wood as well as some Maggi and licorice. Still blood orange at the back. Yummy!Intensely salty-bitter-woody and distinctly sour on the palate, lots of wood acidity. Strongly burnt, dark and somewhat metallic-artificial-dirty. I find some lemon zest and dried plum. Spicy in the back, resinous with some black tea. In the finish bitter, burnt, woody, some licorice.Nice and compact on the nose, a bit too acidic on the palate for me. But a good one!
Review by Serge
Tastes the best of the 2006 REVs I've tried so far, I think (from memory at least). Doesn't come close to the 94 Vintage, but it's a good one. Tastes good to me, you can take it for UVP.
Review by mto75
again a good 2006 REV, maybe a tad better than the S.B.S
Review by Timo Groeger
Oh man, yes this is a really awesome rum. Very tasty Nobilis. Dark chocolate is definitely noticeable on the nose. On the palate, there are also many dried fruits as well as some black tea.
Review by Gregor
What a mild but still very intense enmore. I like it very much. The alcohol is well integrated. A little soapy on the finish. Which I can't explain.
Review by TheRhumhoe
A worthy heir to its alembic, this REV-style Diamond / Enmore nonetheless looks a little grey at first, with a rather light, shy nose of dried fruit, dark woody notes, sweet spices, chocolate and molasses. Although there are a few typical markers (leather, malt, dark chocolate and coffee), this is a fairly discreet rum lacking the floral exuberance of the 1994 vintage REVs. The attack on the palate is intense and particularly bitter. The dark side of Enmore is counterbalanced by salty notes, burnt sugar, aromatic herbs, molasses and dark chocolate among others. Spices (licorice, cloves, chili), leather, caramel, black tea and malt are also present, creating a profile that is as confusing as it is generous. The alcohol is well integrated. The rum needs plenty of aeration to show its full potential. The finish is bitter, long and dark. Black tea, spicy wood and the coffee/dark chocolate/leather combo are more intense than dried fruit and herbaceous notes.Without comparing it to the 1994 vintage, it's interesting to see the differences and similarities between rums of the same style from different eras. Without being the most incredible Diamond / Enmore ever, it's a pretty captivating profile that could do wonders in a few years' time.
Review by Djehey
Compared to the 1994, it doesn't have that rotten wood aspect that I don't like. On the other hand, I think they've added a big ladleful of molasses to the barrel, which makes it very round, even nauseating. One glass at a time is more than enough for me. I also find the nose surprisingly discreet, perhaps a little closed because of the additions... With oxidation, the nauseating side disappears. It's simply an excellent rum.

Yes, "he makes the mocha round"! see RX11234
Review by LukaŽiga
8,9:On the nose, charred wood, oak notes, dark like dark chocolate, leather, roasted nuts with pecans, spicy, perhaps the wood is cherry, thick molasses with licorice, black tea, raisins and prunes, black berry, bump into our nosetrils. On aeration, the burnt sugar is caramelized, perhaps like crème brûlée, malt, umami notes are out, perhaps soy sauce, dried currants and the molasses becomes vegetal with celery, maybe fennel 8,8:On the palate, the attack is thick, dark with charred wood notes like leather, burnt sugar, spicy with Maggi, perhaps clove, salty, slightly resinous, fruity with dried fruits like raisins, prunes, apricots, dates, some marmelade plums, in the end citrus fruits, as the molasses is bitter with dark tea, soy sauce, licorice, vegetal and slightly herbaceous on oxidation. 8,9:The finish is round and long, dry and tannic, the molasses is dark with licorice, black tea, vegetal with cereal, fruity with citrus and fruits, sour cherry, the wood is burnt with notes from palate, mocha and nuts join again..
Review by Lukas Jäger
REV simply tastes good, even if it's the 2006 Little Brother Vintage! Incredibly delicious on the nose, I almost couldn't sit still next to the glass and let it breathe, I wanted to taste it straight away. Dark aromas of berries, resinous wood and bitter molasses entice you to try it. On the palate, the bitter representatives predominate and hit the tongue with an old wooden bar. Still cool, still delicious REV, but a clear drop compared to the nose. Nevertheless, a strong bottling that is a pleasure to have in the glass.
Review by Boletus
Once again a great 2006 REV, which seems to me like the link between RX11234 and RX16863, which I already had in the glass. Not quite as dark, roasted and burnt as the RumClub bottling, but more zesty, sour fruits in the taste similar to the S.B.S bottling. However, this Versailles from Nobilis does not have their latent floral soap note but only a subtle floral hint of violets in the aroma structure. Very tasty!
Review by Beau de Vries
Greatest Guyana I've had the pleasure of tasting!
Review by Florent Apl
Today, a face off between the Nobilis REV 2006 (RX12424) and the SBS REV 2006 (RX11234). On the nose, the Nobilis has more dried plum and chocolate, the SBS is more about raisins. On the palate, the Nobilis feels more hot, woody and bitter. The SBS is more fruity, but still has chocolate and bitterness. Overall, they're quite even. With experience, they are not as nice as I found them before. They are ok price wise.
Review by TheJona'Spirits
This is not indicated on the product sheet, but the barrel was very certainly sauced (at least with an addition of food caramel for coloring) and underwent tropical and continental aging. On the nose, at first it's the notes of dried fruits (raisins, cherries) that dominate, along with a bitterness driven by the liveliness of the alcohol in the form of peppercorns tickling the nostrils. Then, with aeration, I distinguish candied orange, zest, and dark chocolate like opening a box of orangettes at Christmas. It's also indulgent with rich, concentrated caramel, with beautiful aromas of mocha (coffee, cappuccino, buttery, cocoa powder). More scattered, I have a mix of Kub Or, licorice rolls, and cigar tobacco leaf. Here we have a nice big aromatic molasses. At the start of the palate, it is quite round and syrupy. The fruits are still dry, accompanied by caramel cooked in the pan. This relative sweetness lasts only a second. In the middle and end of the palate, an obvious note of licorice stick appears! Then a bird's eye chili seed bursts out 🥵 It's quite dirty, bitter, salty, woody, and acidic. I also have lime zest. In fact, I would even say sweet and salty soy sauce. There is an umami aspect. The alcohol is well integrated and delivers a warm and comforting mouthfeel. The finish is carried by a burnt wood side, very well burnt even, and a bit of that aluminum tank sensation. Then, black tea, plums cooked in the pan at the end of cooking, kitchen spices (cinnamon, red berries). Ultimately, despite the bitterness present from start to finish, it did not bother me. Although we are quite far from a REV 1994 (in terms of density and concentration), this successful selection easily delivers a nice representative of the "semi-heavy" style of Guyana. Dark, complex, layered, and indulgent, I had a very good time. PS: The empty glass develops strange soapy smells at first, then after an hour or two, well-salted bacon (the taste of bacon-flavored chips).
Review by Chrischi78
Another REV whose style I really appreciate: dark nose with malt, cassis, amarena cherry and raisin, plus chocolate, tobacco and wood. Powerful on the palate, salty-bitter, dark and resinous – for me a good companion.
Review by Johannes
I love the REVs. The 94s are already a bit better, but the 2006s have a very high quality besides a slightly bitter off note. This one is one of them!
Review by Thunderbird
This 2006 Enmore is of the very dark kind... which in this case is a good thing. Lots of spice, wood, and dried plum is quite amazing... but for my taste, it could have aged a bit longer.. it doesn't seem fully matured to me yet, it lacks a bit of balance.
Review by Skyfly
Great rum, but as a recent comparison I have to prefer the Black Cat from Precious Liquors. From nose to finish you experience the typical aroma spectrum with dried plum, burnt sugar, leather and black tea, whereby the "burnt" plays a much stronger role this time.
Review by Tim
Strong REV, what I especially liked was the good balance of plum/blackberry, roasted malt, spices, and other dark aromas. Licorice, burnt sugar, wood, spices, and dark chocolate, all found on the palate with great intensity. Tasted together with Bellamy's MDR and the REV feels noticeably more elegant and round on the nose.
Review by Alex Kunath
A really strong representative of its jarhgang and mark. Top rum!
Review by Rumclub Latvia
Probably one of the best Guyanas in this year for me. Impressed.
Review by John Coffey
One of the best Guyanese tasted... This taste chocolate and coffee in mouth is great!
Review by Alessandro
I have a bottle at home that I still drink very gladly. On the nose a lot of fruit and also the classic REV notes, on the palate I found a particular bitter note that personally made me appreciate it more.
Review by Agricoler
Day 4 Sample de Luxe Tasting. Delicious 2006 REV but actually a little too tea-heavy and not plummy enough for me. Basically just not necessarily my profile.
Review by Maxime Clr 🇫🇷
Taste the Society Rum.
Review by Wernie
Was that my first REV, I don't know? Supposedly caramel is odorless and tasteless, apparently not in combination with alcohol :-D, I immediately got it in my nose. Apart from that, I quite like the nose. In terms of taste, it's a tad too bitter for me, too much burnt barrel, plus black tea and slightly salty. Great rum, no question, but perhaps not quite my cup of tea ;-)
Review by Adrien B
90 Dark nose of dusty old parquet. Heavy ripe pear fruit. Fig Prune. Roasted. Distant freshness of rosemary pizza. Palate. Cool I was craving this tonight. Licorice. Dark chocolate, burnt tiramisu. Orange citrus. Medium length. 86 ed., downgraded because it's quite astringent and the soapy vegetal comes through quite well.
Review by Alexander Rasch
Tasted the evening before GRF2025. An excellent REV 2006. Very nice fruit and dark notes. I like it very much. A bottling to enjoy. Clearly rounder than the new 2014 REV. Much more body and the alcohol much better integrated. Therefore no competition from the little brother.
Review by Maik Schütte
My first Enmore. Really tasty. Has been worthwhile to buy the sample👍 I must say but, it is not so my strength to smell out / taste the different characteristics.
Review by Jakub Hrubý
Strong, quite alcoholic, but with a wonderful aroma. When savoured for a longer time, it impressed.
Review by Filip Šikula
This is exactly the type of rum I've really liked lately. A heavy oily piece that you still notice the next day. Like all REV rums, this one offers the scent and taste of dried plums, chocolate, wood, and leather.
Review by Lot-NAS
A great drop but the slight bitterness in taste and finish prevents a higher rating.
Review by Tomer
Amazing REV! At the start was little disappointing but after one month of oxidation it's perfect.
Review by Léo Delek
Quite indulgent as a Guyana.
Review by Mr. Stups
The marque is unmistakable! Nevertheless, the 1994s have more depth and are more balanced. But who still wants to get to nen REV for nen affordable price, is in good hands with the 2006s

Expert review by Zucker und Zeste
Great REV! Dark, malty and complex. The fruit is not in the first place, but always accompanies the aromatics. One tastes the eight years of tropical storage in my opinion very well, thereby the barrel has worked well. Bitternotes are quite present, but not yet exaggerated. 2006 can definitely also what.
