CDI Enmore (Versailles) Guyana (Bottled for Denmark) 1988
Anyone chasing old wooden-still Guyana will feel at home here: 27 years off the Enmore single wooden pot still, dry and heavy with old varnished wood, dried dates, dark chocolate and espresso. One taster called it "a true Enmore," another caught hazelnut and a whole bag of fruit tea. Peppery and tannic, with a long waxy, rubbery finish. Not sweet, not gentle.
The community says- Deep old wood
- Dark chocolate, espresso
- Keep in mind: Tannic, drying finish

From community reviews · summarized with AI
Dry, woody old Enmore at full proof Loved by Enmore fans for its heavy varnished wood, dark chocolate and spice at full proof. A few found it merely pleasant rather than mind-blowing; most rate it very highly.

8,7:On the nose, the first impression we get is quite heavy with medicinal bias, roasted wood notes like dark chocolate, espresso, nuts, caramel and spicy with cinnamon/baking spices, anise, slightly waxy. On aeration, dried dates and cherries burst out, flowery molasses, some black tea, there are meaty, leather, metallic notes, sweet tones with Cola, brown sugar and some coffee. 8,8:On the palate, the attack is tasty with dried dates, raisins and prunes, pairing roasted wood notes with dark chocolate, toffee, quite spicy with pepper and cinnamon, waxy and vegetal with an olive, the molasses brings licorice and black tea.On oxidation, leather, roasted nuts join the game, caramelized Demerara sugar, slightly metallic patina and tannins, dried apricots, berries and citrus fruits from fruity aspect of this rum, full bodied, complex, yet balanced. 8.8:The finish is long, dry and tannic, waxy, round with dried fruits pairing roasted wood notes. Edit:21.9.25, an upgrade to 8.8, oxidation does its job

A pleasant nose with notes of dark chocolate, dried dades and spices. It’s rather mild on the tongue with peppery and sharp notes os the dark bitter chocolate and espresso. The aftertaste is long with characteristic notes of waxes and rubber. An altight bottle but not mind blowing
Review by cigares
A very Enmore nose with old varnished wood, wood varnish, dried fruits, nuts, and Chinese spices. The palate is beautiful, full, woody, and spicy. The finish is long, on the wood. Subtle until now, the bitter caramel takes more and more space.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Had a wonderful tasting event yesterday with only good CDI rums. This one is the second one of the six. This is a delicious rum bottled for the Danish Market. A strong rimum with a nice punch in the flavours. A true Enmore rum no doubt about that. A very well integrated proof but you may want to add a drop of water or maybe two.

08-11-2025 - Rate 9.1 25-09-2025 - Rate 9.1 28-03-2025 - Rate 9.0 This is one of the Enmore’s that I have tasted the most. Have always loved this bottle. And to a decent price. But today it had some more wet wood than usual. 27-03-2026 - Rate 9.3 Tasted blind.
Review by Johannes
A heavy, good, woody Versailles!
Review by Madi Dromamad
The bottle had just been opened for this tasting, and the rum would have deserved a longer opening time in the glass.

Expert review by The Dunder Hut
What a rockstar, the Danes again get a glorious full proof of the 88 badge. Here is a super fruity one that tastes like a bag of fruit tea fell in. Unswret hazelnut and varnish make the wooden flavours really broad. Fantastic!
