Enmore Flensburg Rum Company Guyana REV 1994
For experienced palates who enjoy dark, old-school Guyana rum. This 29-year Enmore REV leans heavily woody, herbal and tannic with bitter chocolate, coffee and licorice. Community notes praise its dry, smoky, medicinal style and long finish, while some miss the usual dried-plum fruitiness of other 1994 REVs. Best as a slow, contemplative sipper for lovers of oak-driven, whisky-adjacent rums.

Review by Gigi Balestra
This one is very good, but not on the same level as previous REVs. Still, I find it's medicinal/herbal side interesting. Oak, smoke, dark chocolate. A little unbalanced and not overly complex, not a typical REV representative. Still a great sip for dark Demerara lovers. 90/100
Review by Thunderbird
On the nose quite restrained, on the palate it is not as convincing as the RA' s in my opinion. Today the 2nd time in the glass and my first impression is confirmed: this REV lacks the fruit notes on the palate almost completely, wood, tannins and spice predominate
Review by ...and a bottle of Rum.
Beautiful REV! I do not like the herbal note so (therefore also applies to me SWR > REV > KFM). That note is not as pronounced here. Nicely balanced and drinkable. For REV purists maybe nothing, but I like it. In direct comparison to the Nobilis 2 points ahead. For 299€ already almost ne consideration worth.
Review by Mirco
For me one of the highlights of the German Rum Festivals 2023. Compared to other 1994 Enmore REV it is quite flat, but undoubtedly a sensational bottling that is a lot of fun. Much more complex than the new vintages.
Review by DomM
Nice REV bottling - more on the herbal side with only moderate hints of dried fruits. Side by side vs. others it becomes more obvious that this one is somewhat of an outlier with some herbs I don’t see in other bottlings. Still a very enjoyable dark Guyana profile which I enjoy very much.
Review by TheRhumhoe
An extremely dark, woody Enmore, aging here reaches the limit of its aromatic potential. Spices, licorice, bitter chocolate, oak, empyreumatic and roasted notes are omnipresent. Dried fruit and aromatic herbs come through only after long aeration in the glass. A slightly less enchanting profile than other, more concentrated Enmore REV 1994s. The palate confirms the impression of the nose: this is a particularly old Enmore, woody and tannic, with leather, bitter cocoa and smoky, toasty notes. Spices add further warmth to an already dark profile. Dried fruit, caramel and floral notes lend a certain suavity to the juice. The alcohol is well-integrated, even if age has not dulled the rum's liveliness. The finish is long, dry and tannic, with the spicy woodiness as intense as ever and dark markers of dark chocolate, coffee, nuts and malty, smoky notes. On the verge of burnt caramel. An intense, heavy rum, a little one-dimensional but captivating.
Review by Johannes
I have to adjust my rating once again. This time I tasted it sober and not after 10 other rums. Compared to the first RA, it has nowhere near as much plum and is already borderline bitter on the finish.
Review by Boletus
Ich liebe ja diese schweren dunklen Rums aus Guyana und da ist auch dieser köstliche REV keine Ausnahme. Vielleicht ein bisschen zu kräuter- und gewürzbetont, um für mich in die absolute Spitzenriege aufzusteigen, da die feinen Trockenfrüchte immer nur angedeutet bleiben, aber dennoch ein tolles Genusserlebnis.
Review by Agricoler
Kleines REV Tasting. In der Nase leicht modrig oder nasses Holz. Dies ist bei den anderen nicht erkennbar. Meiner Meinung nach auch am wenigsten fruchtig. Dennoch ein klasse Rum. Im Vergleichbmit dem Greenheart und dem Artesanal fällt er allerdings deutlich ab aufgrund weniger Komplexität angefangen von der Nase.
Review by Serge
Good, but not a particularly outstanding 94 REV. Smoky with lots of wood (still OK) and medicinal notes. Plum rather quiet accompaniment.
Review by Nika
Very nice, red fruits scent, but less in flavour. Great experience you guys :) recommend
Review by Timo Groeger
Eine absolute Granate. In der Nase hat man hier Holz und Kräuter. Am Gaumrn dann ebenso. Im ersten Moment kommt er sehr holzig rüber, fast schon zu holzig. Nachdem sich das gelegt hat kommen dann die Kräuter zum Abgang hin.
Review by F.L.O.
Ja mei….je öfter ich ihn probiere desto besser. Viel Holz, Lakritze und eine leicht medizinische Note sorgen für einen geilen Geschmack. Tannine schwingen auch noch mit. An REV könnte ich mich gewöhnen… Nur den Preis finde ich nicht angemessen. 200 wären ok.
Review by Frank
Ein schöner, wenn auch nicht sehr intensiver REV. Nase: würzig-holzig-röstig, zunächst mit ordentlich Bleistiftmine und etwas Seife, wirkt fast medizinisch. Wird zügig von Kräutern, Melasse und Lakritz abgelöst. Würziges Zedernholz und eine feine Orangen-Note mit Cassis und Dörrpflaume runden ab. Es gibt intensivere REVs, aber schön ist der hier auch. 8,6 Gaumen: auch hier zunächst Bleistiftmine und Seife, bevor Kräuter und säuerlich-lakritzige Melasse übernehmen. Wirkt angenehm röstig, getoastet und leicht malzig-nussig mit etwas Muskat. Lecker, wenn auch nicht hochklassig. Ein REV ist immer ein Erlebnis. 8,8
