CoR Enmore Guyana 1994 VSG REV x Bar 1802 VSG REV

Strictly a neat sipper, and one that asks for patience. This 31-year Enmore pours dark and dry: leather, cold tobacco, black tea and prunes on the nose, with roasted wood and licorice building on the palate. Several members flag it as the woodier, more tannic side of the 1994 REV batches — the finish runs long and drying. At 47% the alcohol still shows more than the number suggests.

The community says
  • Deep aged Demerara
  • Leather & tobacco
  • But: Very dry, tannic

8.7/10

Mature Demerara with plenty of depth and a clear Enmore/REV signature. Dark fruits, tobacco, tea and a fine herbal spiciness on the nose. Complex on the palate with molasses, spice and prominent wood, but already at the upper limit of what the bitterness allows. As a result, it is not quite as harmonious as other representatives, but the aromatic diversity and long maturation nevertheless ensure an impressive, multi-layered profile despite the low ABV.

The result of a collaboration between The Colours of Rum and Bar 1802, this Enmore starts with a very round and elegant nose, slightly floral and carried by cold tobacco, black tea, and leather notes. The wood is very present but noble, perfectly accompanying winter spices and prunes with its dark notes. A classy and pleasant profile. The palate is marked by strong heat that goes towards spices (chili, licorice, winter flavors), hot caramel, and burnt sugar. The heat then fades and gives way to notes of tobacco, leather, black tea, and prunes. The profile is dark, round, comforting, slightly sweet but very deep nonetheless. The alcohol is still noticeable for the stated ABV, but it’s not unpleasant. The finish is long, dry, and tannic. You find the typical Enmore flavors with all its elegance (coffee, roasted wood, tobacco, leather, spices, burnt sugar, and prunes). A very nice profile and yet another superb bottling for Bar 1802 and The Colours of Rum, raising the bar after the green label batch which was frankly disappointing.

Enmore 

Avg Rating 8.8/10 over 210 Rums

Enmore gave the world the last wooden Coffey still, built here around 1880 and still running at Diamond. It is also one of only two Guyanese estates where you can actually buy rum distilled while the place was open: 17 vintages between 1962 and its closure in April 1994. On most Demerara pages that sentence is not true.
