"Very complex and fascinatingly developing flavour" is how one member sums it up, and that's the split here: pencil shavings, anise, dried apricot and herbs on a dry, spicy old Enmore frame. The nose wins most people over — floral, fruity, fresh. On the palate several find it thinner than they hoped for 32 years, with herbs and light bitterness taking over. Give it an hour of air.
The community says- Floral, fruity nose
- Well-integrated alcohol
- Keep in mind: Palate falls short

How does Enmore Rum Artesanal Guyana Rum MEV 1990 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Dry, herbal old Enmore with pencil-shaving character Loved by fans of the classic pencil-shavings Enmore profile, though a good few feel the age left it a touch light and the palate doesn't quite match the gorgeous nose.

Opens up properly after an hour. More cask influence than the Our Rum & Spirits. Beautiful apricot note that harmonizes with the typical pencil profile. Great 1990s Enmore. I like it very much!

Lots of herbs, not much else. Alcohol bites a bit at the back.
Review by Jakob
RumX Community Tasting with Rum Artesanal for the Tasting Lottery June 2023 / Enmore 1990 Crosstasting: Crisp Versailles from 1990, great profile that absolutely stands on par with the best releases from this vintage. Pencil shavings, anise, wood, dried apricot, subtle citrus notes - a bit sweeter on the nose, then very balanced on the palate, dry with accentuated wood, spice and cask notes. Great release.
Review by cigares
A sample collected at the German Rum Festival in 2024. A lively, fresh nose, different from other Demeraras, with herbs, herbal candy and barely ripe exotic fruit. The alcohol is very present in the first mouthful, then all the aromas of the nose appear and persist. Little influence of wood and unripe fruit, this is a fresh rum. The finish is moderately long and delicate, with almost green fruit and the same light woodiness. You can smell spices and green fruit in the empty glass.
Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
Tasted as part of the RA online tasting for the RumX lottery 06/2023. In the nose anise, pencil shavings, a slight sweetness, but above all fruit, herbs barely perceptible, reminds me surprisingly of the last Worthy Park of RA. Balanced on the palate, but here the herbal notes now come out and gain the upper hand over the fruit. I wonder if this is due to the one hundred percent continental aging. A fine dry rum, of which, however, one sample is enough for me.
Review by BTHHo 🥃
Very spicy and powerful taste, with fruity notes of apricot, notes of leather and herbs - no sweetness that could be expressed here - The aftertaste is long and dry with spice. I would like to express my gratitude to Rum Artesanal for the flavor sets 🙏🏻
Review by Thunderbird
A successful bottling, but it doesn't quite meet my expectations! It lacks a little complexity and intensity!
Review by Mirco
Typical representative of the 1990 Enmore bottlings. Fits into the usual taste profile from the nose to the finish. However, a touch more pencil and herbs. Still beautifully balanced, of course. Great bottling.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
#4180 I hope I step on no ones toes whens I say that this one was disappointing. To me a very light version. I think age caught up with it and thus most of its soul was gone.
Review by Lukas Jäger
Tasted on the 12th GRF: Solid Enmore with a passable basic taste. However, it lacks power, complexity or at least a few rough edges. Update: Better when tasted again, it just needs time. Nice Enmore taste with character, pleasant apricot and a good cask influence, but not too much. Not in the Champions League, but still a good rum from the brilliant Enmore distillery
Review by Christian Rudt
Somehow great but somehow also unsatisfying. With this rum, I hesitate as to whether I find it brilliant or simply superimposed. On the nose it is extremely floral and I like it fantastically, but on the palate this unfortunately drops off significantly. It remains a very good rum, of course, but one that has probably already passed its zenith. But again: on the nose it's right up there for me.
Review by Timo Groeger
Here a nice artisanal rum from Heinz Eggert. Very fruity on the nose, but also anise and herbs can be smelled. Most of it fades on the palate, only herbs and the fruitiness consisting of apricot remain. Furthermore, woody notes.
Review by zabo
A very fine representative of its kind. Edit: Tasted again calmly and individually. No idea, maybe the other rums during the tasting made me rate it better. I can't understand the good rating from back then and had to correct it significantly downwards.
Review by Tschusikowsky
Nice one👌🏼 Super balance, very harmonious rum. Fits from the nose to the finish.
Review by Frank
RumX Lottery June 23, RA online tasting. A beautiful 33 year old Versailles. I already tasted it at the 12th GRF, but today with a little more rest it comes into its own much better. Nose: intense, round and delicious. I like it very much. Pencil shavings and pencil lead are the first things that come to mind. Behind that a tart sweetness of molasses, licorice and slightly sour. Could also be wood acid. Dark roasted, but not too woody and bitter. A slight honey sweetness rounds off the finish. 8.7 Palate: intense and spicy. Again clearly pencil shavings in the foreground. Slightly bitter with treacle and liquorice. Sweetness from the fruit bread with this candied orange peel and candied lemon peel. Malty, roasted and herbal at the end. 8.5 Takes a while, but then has a very nice profile. The almost 60% are very well integrated. I really like this pencil aroma.
Review by Agricoler
Very nice MEV even if the profile doesn't quite match my taste profile. Lots of herbs paired with wood and a light citrus note. And yes, there was also the pencil, which I actually find acceptable in this bottling.
Review by Johannes
Without a direct comparison, I would prefer the ORS and the old RA. I'll have to compare them soon...
Review by Nivius
Together with the MEC of FRC at home after the Rumfest tasted again in peace. Yellow fruits and especially a pronounced pencil note, fruity and slightly alcoholic finish, only unfortunately a little short, as I find the whole rum, even for his age, aromatically a little weak on the chest, but for it nice and round. 200 for half a liter I find a bit expensive, even if the rum is quite tasty here.
Review by Beach-and-Rum 🏖️🌴
Surprisingly relaxed Enmore with little bitterness. I would have expected more barrel influence with the long storage period. The alcohol is extremely well integrated. I like it very much. Many thanks to Oli and RA for the sample.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Unfortunately, it doesn't suit me at all. There are clearly better enmores... Even if this Mark MEV is new to me. Find him quite exhausting medicinal and bitter. Alcohol could also be better integrated...
Review by Pavel Spacek
... Enmore - drive distillery, now just a functional distillation device. Probably the only wooden distillation device in the world that enjoys great popularity. Enmore rums have flavors of ash, leather, heavy wood, which especially excite 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 machlo
Generally, earthy like pu-erh with forest fruits on the nose and pallete as well. Quite likeable. :)
Review by Mateusz
Very complex and fascinatingly developing flavour. Love this one!
Review by Michael Schou
23-01-2025 By far not my best Enmore. This one is not for me. Missing the thick and oily classic old Enmore.
Review by Sebastian.W
A nice rum, but a bit too much licorice for my taste.
Review by Anonymous
A very beautiful 33-year-old rum that needs some time to breathe. Notes of yellow fruits and nuts. A very nice length on the palate and a very gentle finish! Really a very beautiful work by the cellar master!
Review by Carlitooo
For me, a bit too long in the barrel. I prefer the 25-year-olds from the 1990s. But considering what other bottlers currently charge, the price-performance ratio here is very, very good.
Review by Filip Lojín
Excellent, I enjoyed it! Unfortunately, I had too small a sample.
Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
From the RumX sample set. Nose: herbal. Pinewood. Pencil shavings. Weirdly spiced. No idea what to think of this yet. Taste: dry. Old wood. Hay/malty tones. Not much fruit to discover. Complex. Different layers of spices. Hard to describe and I wish I had more than 2cl so I could try it on a later date again. For now...I do like it.
