Sip this one slowly and neat — at 61% it needs time in the glass, and several tasters say it only unfolds after a long rest. Lighter and paler than you'd expect from a Demerara, with grapefruit and yellow fruit up front, oak, light smoke, raisin and a dry, tannic, faintly glue-tinged palate. The continental ageing keeps the wood in check. A long, dried-fruit finish closes it out.

Dry, balanced old Enmore, citrus and oak The handful of tasters here rate it high and land on the same words — intense, balanced, continentally aged Enmore — though one found it more interesting than thrilling.
Is it right for you?
Yes, if you're after bold, mature, oaky rums for sipping neat.

Review by Oliver
Slightly smoky, herbal nose with citrus fruits (especially grapefruit). Complex and balanced. Perfectly balanced on the palate. Excellent, continental matured Enmore!

Review by zabo
Many thanks first of all to Rumurmel for opening the bottle at the Franconian Tasting Gang meeting, as always a party in the Hobbit hole. Nice pencil shavings, but it lacked the kick for a better rating. And sorry again, it really was by accident my most expensive RumCola, but unfortunately not really good, but the nice thing was that we all laughed about it and it will haunt me for a long time.
Review by Pavel Spacek
The old Velier Demerara rums are the best you can taste in the rum world. The rums aged rather by accident for several years in the tropics, and no one topped up the barrel contents. The excise duty was 90% or more, which is why the taste is especially full and intense. Although it is an extra expensive affair, I recommend tasting a rum from this series at least once in your life.
Review by ArminK
He had a hard time competing in the tasting against a Caroni Kirsch. But he doesn't need to. He stands on his own. Extremely well-balanced both on the nose and the palate. Complex from start to finish, I won't list the aromas here separately. A truly special bottling.
Review by Jarek
Franconian Tasting Gang October 2026: At first, I found this very disappointing and rated the rum more around 8.5. But then, after some time in the glass, after a very long time, the aromas gradually appeared. Surprisingly little wood influence and unexpectedly light, which would fit the continental aging. Despite the catch-up, a rum I found interesting but not exciting.
Review by Buddudharma
I would guess Versailles here. Pencil, yellow fruits, wood, and a fine sweetness with nice intensity. Not my favorite profile, but nicely distinctive and well balanced. Thanks to Armin for the dram.
