The Wild Parrot Enmore 1991

Sip this one neat and slow — it's a 28-year Enmore pot-still Demerara that fills the glass with plum, green tea, dark chocolate and dry pencil-shaving wood, with a background of varnish and tar. Several tasters call it complex and elegant but firmly on the dry, bitter side: the fruit lives on the nose, then the palate turns woody, tannic and licorice-bitter. Rewarding, not easy.

The community says
  • Deep aged complexity
  • Plum and tea nose
  • But: Distinctly bitter

The look inside the bottle

How does The Wild Parrot Enmore 1991 taste?

Summarized by AI from 23 community reviews.

Dry, woody old Demerara with real bitterness Loved for its heavy old-Demerara depth — plum, tea, tobacco, dark wood. The catch is a real bitterness (bitter coffee, tannins, licorice) that some find intriguing and others distracting.

Fans of heavy, dry old Demeraras and smoky whisky drinkers

A really excellent enmore with smells and flavors of noble wood that make me imagine being inside a room full of antique furniture! The rum is elegant and very balanced alternating notes of sugar, fruit herbs in a really nice way!

A lovely old rum from Guyana. The nose is amazing! Dark and heavy like all good Demeraras. Licorice, fruits, wood, dark chocolate, spicy, has a sweetness to it that I really like as well. I can detect a certain creaminess as well. A long finish with slight bitterness.

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.
