Nobilis Enmore (Versailles) No. 15 REV 2006
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.

Aggregated 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.

Review by Jonathan Massard
Cela n'est pas indiqué sur la fiche produit, mais le fût a très certainement été saucé (au minimum avec un ajout de caramel alimentaire pour la coloration) et a subit un vieillissement tropical et continental. Au nez, c'est dans un premier temps les notes de fruits secs (raisins, cerises) qui dominent ainsi qu'une amertume poussée par la vivacité de l'alcool sous forme de grains de poivre qui viennent chatouiller les narines. Puis, je distingue avec l'aération de l'orange confite, zeste et chocolat noir comme à l'ouverture d'un ballotin d'orangettes à Noël. C'est aussi gourmand sur du caramel bien gras et concentré, avec de belles odeurs de Moka (café, cappuccino, beurré, poudre de cacao). Plus éparses, j'ai un mélange de Kub Or, de réglisse en rouleau et de feuille de tabac à cigare. On a là une belle grosse mélasse aromatique. En début de bouche, il est assez rond et sirupeux. Les fruits sont toujours secs, accompagnés d'un caramel cuit dans la casserole. Cette relative douceur ne dure qu'une seconde. En milieu et fin de bouche une note évidente de réglisse en bâton fait son apparition! Puis une graine de piment oiseau vient d'éclore 🥵 C'est assez sale, amer, salé, boisé et acide. J'ai aussi du zeste de citron vert. En fait je dirais même sauce soja sucré salé. Il y a un aspect umami. L'alcool est bien intégré et délivre une bouche chaude et réconfortante. La finale est portée par un côté bois brûlé, très bien brûlé même et un peu cette sensation de cuve en aluminium. Puis, du thé noir, des quetsches cuites à la poêle, en fin de cuisson, des épices de cuisine (cannelle, baies rouges). Finalement, malgré l'amertume présente du début à la fin, celle-ci ne m'aura pas dérangée. Bien qu'on soit assez loin d'un REV 1994 (en terme de densité et de concentration), cette sélection réussie haut la main à livrer un joli représentant du style "semi-lourd" de Guyana. Sombre, complexe, étagé et gourmand, j'ai passé un très bon moment. PS: Le verre vide développe d'étranges odeurs savonneuses au début puis au bout d'une heure ou deux, du bacon bien salé (le goût des chips goût bacon).
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 Jakob
On the nose, predominantly dried fruit and subtle spice and wood notes. On the palate surprisingly present, slight bitterness, plus the obligatory prune, leather, licorice, wood, also caramel sweetness - compared to the other 2006s with the most bitter note, although this remains for me still in good balance. Aromatically quite with appealing complexity. Next to the SBS my favorite, because here compared to the quite round SBS also a few more corners and edges appear, which makes for pleasant tension. Compared to the 1994 representatives with much less heaviness, the plum notes occur here rather in tandem with currant, the dark tones of wood, licorice, leather and caramel are much less pronounced. I am inclined - despite the aromatic complexity of this bottling - to speak of "REV Light." While the spectrum of 2006s also has its charm and the character is undeniably recognizable, in my eyes the REV profile benefits extremely from the long aging and resulting complexity. However, the reference points can also be described as almost unfair for the younger bottlings, especially for proven lovers of the 1994 REVs. As an entry into the fascinating world of heavy Demerara profiles but one of the best options, in particular, because the price points here are usually still within tolerable limits.
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 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 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 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.
Review by Pavel Spacek
.. Enmore - drive destilerka, nyni uz jen funkcni destilacni zarizeni. Patrne jedine drevene destilacni zarizeni na svete, ktere se tesi velke oblibe. Rumy Enmore totiz maji prichut popelu, kuze, tezkeho dreva, coz nadchne zejmena milovniky nakourenych whisky. A pokud tradicnim Guyanskym zpusobem prida vyrobce do rumu trochu melasy, mate v lahvi unikatni velmi vyrazny a tezky rum. Jeden z mych oblibenych.
Review by zabo
Edit: another direct comparison between the Rum Club and Nobilis. Nobilis is also ahead this time At the Franconian Tasting Gang Rum Grillen Summer Event against the S.B.S Guyana. In my opinion, I think this one is a tick better. The third in the round was the new Rumclub Edt. 46, which was an unequal comparison, as it couldn't keep up at all.
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 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 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 Basti
In direct comparison with the S.B.S 2006, the two bottlings are not much different on the nose. On the palate, the Nobilis has slightly more roasted/spicy aromas and fruity notes fall by the wayside. Also slightly bitter overall. For me, both REVs are on a par.
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 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 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 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.

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.
