Enmore El Dorado Rare Collection EHP 1993
Most tasters land on the same verdict: a great nose, a slightly weaker palate. Expect dark fruit, varnish, dark caramel, chocolate and tobacco off this old wooden Coffey Enmore. A few find a spicy chili-and-bitter kick early in the mouth, and several note the finish runs short. Many call it an easy sipper for 56.5%, though a number rank the 1996 a step above.
- Excellent nose
- Dried fruit, chocolate
- Easy at 56.5%

Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Another tasting where all the likes have disappeared 🤔 26.10.2025 Part 1 Today we have an El Dorado Rare Cask online tasting and I've been looking forward to it. I will keep the score and just enjoy the rums and I have all of them on my shelves as well. ---------------- This is a great rum and it really stands out even compared to the other Enmore's. A very well balanced rum with one of the best noses I have ever sampled. A rum well worth the price tag.
Review by Stefan Persson
I like the standard range from El Dorado better, including the fantastic 25yo.
Review by Oliver
Sehr einladende Nase mit getrockneten Aprikosen, Rosinen und zarten Schokoladennoten. Der Gaumen kann dann leider nicht ganz mit der phantastischen Nase mithalten. Leichte alkoholische Schärfe wahrnehmbar - war kurz sogar bei ungezuckertem, spanischem Stil in Fassstärke. Das ist aber Kritik auf hohem Niveau. Relativ trocken, würzig und angenehme Holznoten. Sehr schöner Enmore!
Review by Giorgio Garotti
A really well done enmore from eldorado!An elegant and balanced rum in all its aromas!
Review by Joachim Guger
Very oily, wonderful red-golden color. A great nose!!! Very warm, perfectly balanced. Alcohol not noticeable. Very nice and spicy in the mouth. Strong and warm. Not woody despite the long storage in the tropics. Warm, beautiful finish. The perfect Demerara sipper and a "beautiful" rum.😀😀😀 However, it lacks that certain something to ascend to the Olympus of the Rare Collection.
Review by Tschusikowsky
Very good, especially the nose. The chocolate flavor I like extremely well. However, the citrus content is too high for me, neat acidity. And the finish turns out relatively short.
Review by Tim
Toller tropisch gereifter Enmore, der aber verglichen zum ED 1996 etwas schwächer abschneidet. Es fehlt die Komplexität und Intensität, vor allem am Gaumen. Natürlich trotzdem ein sehr guter Rum, der sehr lecker ist. Viel röstiges, Frucht, brauner Zucker und dunkle Fasseinflüsse.
Review by LukaŽiga
8,6:On the nose, the first impression we get is a combination of varnish, roasted wood notes like nuts, burnt sugar and chocolate, spicy with cinnamon, fruity tones with dried apricots and raisins, some perfume. On aeration, pencil shavings and minty molasses arise, yellow, citrus fruits and coconut, butterscotch and nutella. 8,9:On the palate, the attack is sweet, delicious with dried fruits, coconut, pairing roasted wood notes with butterscotch, chocolate, leather and some spiciness with pepper, vanilla, tobacco.When the rum is oxidized, it becomes really buttery, balanced, perhaps slightly meaty, Demerara sugar is there, citrus fruits with lime. 8,7:The finish is long, dry and tannic, the barrel impact is strong, with slightly smoky roasted wood notes, spicy, variety of fruits and tobacco.. Edit:10.10.25
Review by Jakob
Compared directly with the '95 Velier and '96 ED, it does surprisingly well - definitely an option within striking distance, although the Velier in particular is still a tad ahead.
Review by lukasdrinkinghabits
Habe die beiden El Dorado Enmores parallel im Glas. Mir fehlt bisher die Erfahrung mit dem EHP Mark. Die Nase vom 1993er ist sehr weich und gefällig: Kaffee (auch mit der Säure vom Kaffee), Röstaromen, dunkles Karamell, Nutella, Trockenfrüchte und etwas Grapefruit. Gefällt mir sehr gut. Der Mund ist überraschend leicht, saurer als erwartet, aber vom Profil ansonsten ähnlich. Aber weniger angenehm, verbrannt, bitter und sauer er teilweise. Es fehlt auch die Intensität, insbesondere hin zum Abgang. Der ist zwar schön nussig, aber sehr mild und nicht sehr lang. Ein schöner Rum, der aber unter seinem Potential bleibt. Mein Sample ist aber schon über zwei Jahre offen, die Oxidation kann den Eindruck etwas verfälscht haben. Insgesamt sind das zwei gefällige Rum, mit klaren Demerara Profil aber auch einer lechten Column Still Beliebigkeit. Der 1996er ist tatsächlich ein Stück besser als der 1993er
Review by Rodolphe
Match vs the 1996: the nose is quite similar but a little less caramel than the 1996. I found it nicer. On the other hand, for me, the 1996 easily wins. Deeper, darker and longer in the mouth. I found a little acidity on the finish in the 93 that the 96 does not have.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
crass sweet and quaffable enmore ! very horny! especially this lime, mint, plum and cocoa note is really fun 💯🤤
Review by Maxence
Very atypical profile for an Enmore. You expect something very dark and you find loads of round notes especially on the palate. It reminds me Enmore 1995 from Velier but less complex and expressive. A delicious easy sipper for sure 😋
Review by Serge
Out the back a bit sour and very very slightly bitter, roughly in the direction of how a lime disc causes it in a Ti Punch Vieux. Doesn't bother me too much, though. The nose is better than the palate, though.
Review by TheRhumhoe
A nice Enmore, offering fresh and varnished notes of dried fruit, prunes, raisins and citrus that mix with the more traditional chocolate, vanilla and woody notes.The rum is more spicy and intense on the palate, but offers some citrus notes (lemon zest) that sharpen its profile. The finish is quite short, however, with aromas of chocolate, wood, oak, vanilla, chili, with a hint of smoke and menthol. An authentic rum from the original Enmore still.
Review by cigares
Beautiful flavors of dried fruit, dried apricot, citrus, old varnished wood. But also caramel and dried herbs. The attack on the palate is disappointing in comparison with the nose, marked by spiciness/pimento, which is not very pleasant, then dried fruits emerge with old varnished wood. Everything falls back into place once the spiciness has disappeared, and the finish is beautiful, bitter, complex and long. A fine Enmore, atypical, I regret the spiciness at the start of the palate.
Review by Timo Groeger
Irgendwas fehlt diesem Rum, wenn ich nur wüsste was :-) Ist jedenfalls auch very röstig, jedenfalls haben wir hier reichlich Kaffee und Vanille. Aber auch ne Runde Pfeffer und Schokolade. Jawoll, die Bayern ...
Review by Mopar Rules
Different animal than yesterday’s Foursquare. I already smelled the rum when the barkeeper poured it into the glass, sitting in a corner in the bar. The longer it sits in the glass, the more flavors I discover. Dried fruits, oranges, a nice balanced sweetness. Vanilla comes through after a while. The rum is very balanced, the alcohol very well integrated, smooth and complex. Roasty aromas and a really nice influence from the cask. Long, roasty and woody finish. Very nice!
Review by Boletus
Der anfänglich eher scheue Geruch entwickelt sich mit der Zeit sehr ansprechend und lädt zum ausgiebigen Schnuppern ein. Im Mund ist der Rum dann sehr geschmeidig und durchaus komplex mit ein paar seifig-floralen Anklängen an Veilchen und Lavendel, um dann in einem feinen, aber leider etwas kurz geratenen Abgang zu münden. Ein leckerer Leisetreter aus Guyana!
Review by Henry Davies
The nose is pleasant with real caramel notes but on the lighter side. In the mouth the first feeling is that the alcohol is not as well integrated as it could be but again caramel and tobacco with some oak from the barrel influence. The finish is hotter than expected again with oak and coffee but not bad. My first DDL rare collection and while not up there with the best Demerara’s a perfectly solid rum

"I personally found it to be equally as good as some of the Velier Demerara's I have tried. As long as you understand what you are buying you cannot fail to be impressed with this rum. However, if you go into it expecting a rum which is "twice as good"..."Read full review →
