Made for people who chase old Demerara: a dark, 31-year Enmore full of licorice, leather, tobacco and stewed prunes. What sets it apart from other 1992 Enmores is balance — heavy and roasty but, as several tasters put it, "not too woody or bitter." A few wish for more fruit, but most call the wood restraint and long finish the whole point.
The community says- Balanced, not over-oaked
- Long finish
- Deep licorice-leather profile

How does Enmore Rum Sponge No. 15 1992 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Balanced old Enmore, licorice and leather A near-unanimous favorite among old-Enmore fans: dark, roasty and licorice-heavy with wood that never dominates. The only real gripe is a lack of bright fruit.

Review by Jakob
Wow! Enmore at its finest: licorice, leather, anise, allspice, plum, wood... exquisite! Despite the many heavy aromas, it has an almost delicate profile, a bit lighter than the other releases, allowing a bit more roasted notes on the palate. It’s precisely this “lightness” in a positive sense that makes this distillate stand out and gives it its own character. Once again: Enmore 1992 guarantees excellent rums.
Review by Stefan Persson
Overall the best Sponge rum I’ve tasted. The aromas is a little weak but it’s possible to detect some smoke, tobacco and leather. At the palate it really explodes with flavors of smoke, tobacco, leather, oak and licorice. Wowwww!
Review by Oliver
Lots of dark, toasty associations. Lots of licorice and plums. Demanding rum that needs a lot of attention, but then rewards with an uncanny complexity and sophistication. Outstanding 1992 Enmore!
Review by Thunderbird
An excellent Enmore, less heavy and strong, but with all the markers that make an Enmore! Beautiful, dark and heavy. Lots of spice, dried fruit, dark chocolate and a wonderfully long finish, and it all harmonizes in a very balanced ratio!
Review by cigares
A rum tasted online with Angus MacRaild. A strong color. Angus seemed proud of his choice for this Enmore, a distillery (mark) he considers the most interesting in Guyana. The nose is dark and deep, with sandalwood and licorice, but also fresh tobacco. The palate is a continuation of the nose, with more vigor. Still sandalwood and licorice, but also dried fruits (prunes). The finish is long, with the same sandalwood, woodiness and freshness. I never tire of smelling the empty glass, which tells a medieval story of a castle smelling of smoke, with the door to the herbalist's shop wide open. My favorite of the evening. Tasted again and still a very, very fine rum, balanced and lively!
Review by zabo
What a beautiful rum, the color, the smell and the taste simply delicious. The alcohol is well integrated, a real pleasure. These old Enmores are increasingly becoming my new favorite profile.
Review by Aussierumfan
Putting it simply, just lovely old Guyana rum. This enmore is so dark, rich and complex with a slightly restrained but delightful nose. It's tastes marvellous, old leather, tobacco, wood (but not too much), then sweeter notes of caramel, dark chocolates and some fruits. A finish that goes on forever. A must try for lovers of old Demerara. I really hope that later vintages come out like this as they approach 30 years of age so we can keep tasting this!
Review by Mirco
many dark/beautiful tones grandiosely combined.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Very heavy, thick, complex, concentrated and oily enmore. Lots of licorice, dark almost burnt caramel, some incense, dried fig, lavender, sea salt and cocoa. Alcohol well integrated, not too much barrel influence. Beautiful thing. Only thing is, I'm still warming up to these intense licorice notes of this enmore style, unfortunately. The more you get into it and let it breathe the more dried fig, lavender and sweet mocha combine together on the finish. Beautiful part!
Review by Rodolphe
A very old enmore with its typical markers: dark wood, candied prunes, chocolate, spices, old leather. Super tasty, super well made. Very nice selection. Thanks to the app and to rum sponge for the game that allowed me to win the samples!
Review by TheRhumhoe
An Enmore from a surprisingly unexplored vintage, despite its incredible qualities. The nose is very warm, bursting with spices of all kinds (pepper, licorice, vanilla) that combine well with the dark, sweet oakiness typical of Enmore of yesteryear. Empyreumatic notes (smoke, roast, tobacco) are counterbalanced by prunes, raisins, tea and aromatic herbs. A homogeneous, intense and elegant nose. On the palate, a gripping, complex and aromatic rum is revealed. Empyreumatic flavors lend a dark, powerful edge to the palate. This sensation is reinforced by wood, leather and dried fruit, giving a warmer, more tannic feel on the palate. However, floral, tea and herbal scents provide a welcome breath of freshness that balances everything out. The alcohol is well integrated. The interminable finish is bitter, heavy and rich, with notes of dried fruit, tobacco, wood, spice and empyreum. A final, rather greedy but dry sensation that signals the end of the final bouquet. An exceptional Enmore, very well selected by the bottler.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Wow, this is a very good Guyana. Extremely well balanced not only in the ABV but also the wood. Usually this old rums are dominated by the wood, but not this one. Fruity with some really nice spices and caramel. The finish is extremely long and nice. I had to drink water 3 times before I was ready for the next sample! Draws really nice curtains in the glass and the empty glass is equally wonderful and I can pick up some chocolate and faint leather.
Review by Adrian Wahl
Wow. Actually my first Enmore 1992 and this is an outstanding bottling. You can smell & taste forever and always find something new. Great experience drinking it at the April Lottery Tasting with Angus. Also exciting to hear the background story.
Review by SaibotZtar
Powerful 1992 Enmore... nice and oily in the mouth . Dark fruits (plum, cassis, berries) licorice ...some candy . Bitter chocolate and some dark caramel. Great stuff !!!
Review by Frank
Rum Sponge - RumX-live-Tasting, the third of the evening and for me a highlight, as I had expected. Old and real cask strength. Nose: incredibly dense and intense aromas. Very full-bodied and delicate. Very dark-roasted and yet fruity. Dried plum, dried apricot and dried bitter orange. There is also plenty of liquorice, baking spice and leather as well as old furniture polish. A nose to sniff forever. 9.2 Palate: yes, wonderful! Full-bodied, intense and yet balanced. Woody, roasted and spicy, but not too much of everything. A good shot of wood acidity at the beginning, followed by liquorice, fat pecan, umami, perhaps also tonka bean. Lots of sour-tart treacle. But also dried plum and dried blood orange. Great aroma 9.2
Review by Tim
A very dark, floral and smoky Enmore, with a good load of earth and leather. Unfortunately, there's not much fruit. Very briefly even some bacon on the nose, which rather repels me than turns me on. Dark, lots of leather, spicy and earthy in the mouth. Fortunately, a little more fruit with a heavy sweetness on the finish. Overall, unfortunately not my favourite aromas, but I recognize that this is a complex and high-quality rum.
Review by Gregor
Wow what a great enmore. The best I've had so far. Clean licorice with beautiful intense and long-lasting roasted aromas. The alcohol strength is absolutely perfect and the rum is wonderfully harmonious. Definitely try it
Review by Christian Rudt
RumX Community lottery tasting and the highlight nicely placed in the middle. An Enmore that makes you shine. Not too intense there are others. But fantastically balanced and aromatically diverse. With a little time in the glass even a little spicier. There remains only thanks to RumX and Angus that I was allowed to try this great stuff 😊
Review by Mike H.
A very good Enmore that is missing a little fruit to reach the 90 or more points level. Still has a lot of aromas to give in both the nose and the mouth with a nice long finish.
Review by RumTaTa
Powerful and heavy aromas rise from the glass! After a while, however, delicate components such as fruit and esters join in. The alcohol does not interfere a bit. This is already off to an excellent start! On the palate, the impressions of the nose are mirrored almost one-to-one and the emphasis shifts towards wood, licorice and dark chocolate. It becomes bitter but not too bitter. The flavors stick to the palate for a very long time. With more fruitiness, this would be a near perfect rum for me. Unfortunately, these old Enmores are not cheap.
Review by Boletus
The first contact of the smell is like taking a deep sniff from a richly stocked spice shelf made of polished oak; allspice, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and cardamom flood the nasal cavity and are complemented by massive oak with emissions of eucalyptus and incense. Only after a little standing time does the rum open towards dried fruits as well as dark notes of chocolate, mocha, licorice, and molasses. Everything remains elegant and balanced with very substantial aromatic density. Guyana dream stuff!
Review by Johannes
Without direct comparison, a rather dry, somewhat less fruity 92 Enmore with a lot of barrel influence.
Review by Lukas Jäger
Tasted at the April Lottery RumX tasting with Angus from Rum Sponge, number 3: I was looking forward to this one the most, Enmore 1992 is an exclamation point on the label for now! And wow, this rum does not disappoint! Fruity-sweet, with lots of dark notes, proper wood and lots of depth. Unlike many other 92s Enmores but not too woody or bitter, but wonderfully balanced. This one is really fun, I'd love to have more of it! So far, clearly the highlight and I suspect the following will not come close to this rum!
Review by Serge
Best (but also not cheapest) from the tasting. Good Enmore with great (but typical) flavors
Review by Pavel Spacek
... Enmore - drive distiller, now just a functional distillation device. Apparently the only wooden still in the world which is very popular. The Enmore rums have a flavour of ash, leather, heavy wood, which will delight especially the lovers of whiskey. And if in the traditional Guyanese way the producer adds a little molasses to the rum, you have a unique very distinctive and heavy rum in the bottle. One of my favourites.
Review by Jarek
Oh, I'm really glad I managed to get a bottle and a sample! Dried plum, licorice, burnt sugar. Spicy, woody, delicious. The notes run through the nose, palate, and finish. One might find it boring, but the combination is just good.
Review by Alex1981
Highlight for today! Great Enmore that deserves more time to enjoy. Full bodied, heavy with a complex profile of bread, licorice, wood, medicinal, chocolate. All well integrated with a long finish that shows more flavors over time. Top notch!
Review by Piotr Ignasiak
As expected, an intense experience with a dark spicy wood and leather. A type of rum i drink a little spoon or two of, such a big character.
Review by Vincent D
Superb. An explosion of flavors. Licorice, wood, leather, tobacco, prunes. Candied. Very earthy. Glued to the ground. Magnificent.
Review by Filip Šikula
Diamond Advent RFC 2024 calendar. The name decadent drink and the rum sponge graphic are both very refreshing things for me, which actually don't offer big expectations if you don't know what it's about. But the opposite is true, and even in this case, I get an incredible sample of Enmore 92. Wood, spices, totally balanced rum. Great stuff!
Review by Djehey
Wow, this one's a killer. A dark and delicious profile! And the balance is just magnificent! It looks old indeed. The nose is quite discreet.
Review by Buddudharma
Beautiful, elegant Enmore with a nice intensity and complexity. Overall, however, not my preferred profile, as I find the fruitiness somewhat lacking and I always have slight associations with Maggi or soy sauce. However, it is certainly a highlight for lovers of this type of rum.
Review by Maxence
A nose of great complexity that gives this rum remarkable elegance, followed by a more classic palate with a fairly dark profile, typical of the distillery. A very fine selection from Decadent Drinks.
Review by Pavel Ungr, RumRock
Vintage 1992. I rate it 8.8 out of 10, an excellent rum that ranks high even among my more than 1,300 ratings.
Review by Awik
WoW I would like that in my collection
Review by gacasti
Intense darkened flavours from longer tropical and continental maturation. Nose: leather, licorice, stewed pineapple, and white sugar. Palate: it follows the nose, but now tobacco, green notes, vanilla and coconut. Finish: medium to long.
Review by Ed Stark
Amazing rum very rich and flavorful it was so great to taste such flavors from such a legendary distillery.
Review by Jags
Well I gave in and had to try this 1992 Rum Sponge Enmore 29yr @ 58.4% ABV WOW, this is my first sample of Enmore rum and WOW. So complex, so many flavours, so smooth, an absolute delight. I can’t get over how good this rum is. Will now try and find new Enmore rums for sure.
Review by Richard Krupa
Licorice, plums, lots of spices, pronounced and long finish.
