CDI Enmore Guyana 1988
"An unmistakable Enmore," as one member put it — lots of leather and herbs with a little sour cherry on the nose, then leather, malt, dark chocolate and walnut on the palate. A long, earthy finish. The recurring gripe: at 48% several tasters wished for more punch, saying it thins out on the palate. A dark, woody Demerara for slow sipping.
The community says- Leather and dark chocolate
- Long earthy finish
- Keep in mind: Palate thins out

Review by Thunderbird
A wonderful nose with fruit, leather and nut!The palate can unfortunately not quite keep up, it offers many facets of the darker kind, but somehow not quite convincing and too light
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
full-length enmore rum. sensational. when you think he gets too bitter, he just gets the curve and is surprisingly fruity, fresh and not too woody. very nice part for the age!liquid forest walk! From moss to mushroom to berry to tree bark to pine needle.... Very horny and perfectly balanced at 48%.
Review by Martin Augustin
An unmistakable Enmore can be achieved. Lots of leather and herbs, complemented by a little sour cherry. Great. The taste is again full of leather, malt, dark chocolate and walnut. The alcohol is perfectly integrated, although it is too soft due to the reduction. Great finish of dried currant, leather, earth and licorice. Great rum despite the low percentage.
Review by cigares
A nose of old varnished wood, bitter caramel, ginger and Chinese spices. Lots of spices on the palate, ginger and spices. The wood brings a lot of bitterness. The finish is a bit short, except the bitter caramel that stays long. A nice rum very focused on bitter caramel and therefore a bit too monolithic for me.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
03.01.2020 In a cottage with friends for the weekend with a few bottles of rum. Notes: Dark in colour. Nose: Intense, wood, light roasted, raisin, plum, tobacco. Palate: Oily, wood, roasted, vegetal, nutty, cherry, light citrus, Finish: Long and warm, mineral, dried fruit, wood, nutts, faint smoke.
Review by Lukas Jäger
Strong Enmore! Initially somewhat disappointed by the few percent, I must say that it comes along incredibly balanced. Very complex, dark and deep with the typical distillery character, plus proper wood, but for my aversion of bitterness just right. With a few percent more he would probably still create a few points more, because he loses especially on the palate quickly in strength, but otherwise really great!
Review by Johannes
A beautiful Versailles! For my taste, it could use a few percent more.
Review by Radek Brix
Very pleasant aroma with a dominance of sour cherries and leather. The taste is rather woody with hints of dark chocolate and currant. The finish is very long, with sour cherries showing up again at the end.
Review by Pavel Spacek
So much taste in 48% ?!!! This rum in cask strength should be heaven in hell..! The wood is there, but not overhelming plumps and leather taste.
Review by Carlitooo
A relaxed, tasty Versailles, alcohol well integrated, subtly bitter but not unpleasant

Caramel wood and varnish with a hint of bitter on the nose. The bitter caramel continues on the palate accompanied by Chinese 5 spice and dried ginger. On the way down the varnish comes back again. Super interesting cask
