The Auld Alliance - Corman Collins Enmore AWM 1992
People who chase old, wood-heavy Demerara will feel at home here: a 28-year Enmore pot-still packed with leather, tobacco, dark chocolate, dried plum and licorice, finishing on a cappuccino-bitter note. Most tasters love the depth and the well-tucked alcohol, though one or two found it almost all cask and heat, and a couple felt it needed half an hour of air to open up.
The community says- Deep leather & tobacco
- Well-integrated alcohol
- But: Very wood-forward

Old, woody Enmore with leather and licorice Loved by dark-Enmore fans for its leather, tobacco and bittersweet chocolate depth. A few found it wood-dominant or noted a strange peppery, cola-like edge — give it air.

The 1992 Enmores are simply on an exciting level. This release is no exception: leather, wood, dried plum, molasses, tobacco and licorice in an exciting interplay. Outstanding rum.

this was quite a bit disappointing. The cask is present but seems to be the only smell and taste. Alcohol is strong on the nose dominating all other fragrances that might be there. On the palate alcohol and wood, no fruits, no herbs, no nothing; might need to taste again on another day; may be the sample suffered somehow
Review by Maxence
Fantastic balance between sugary and bitterish notes. A masterclass among dark Enmore 🤩
Review by Johannes
In comparison, slightly more bitter notes than the Flensburg 92.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
04.09.2022 Meeting up for a nice after event party at my hotel. Good rum and food spread over a full day. Nose Wood, roasted, faint smoke, plum, light chocolate, anise, light caramel, faint earthy. Palate Oily, wood, roasted, spicy, fruits, anise, light chocolate, faint earthy. Finish Medium to long, wood, roasted, dried fruit, chocolate, light caramel.
Review by SaibotZtar
Nose relatively light leather, dried fruits, anise, slight menthol and currants. On the palate comes a nice burnt caramel sweetness... some dark fruits, anise, pepper and chocolate...
Review by Tschusikowsky
Great rum. I like it better than the Distilia. The flavors seem denser and more present to me. More fruity components. Very very tasty.
Review by Leo Krüper
Old Enmore. Comes heavy and dusty. Needs a lot of time in the glass, then clear old Enmore coffee/tobacco/salon notes. Nice rum, delivers what it promises and hardly holds any surprises.
Review by Vincent D
The rum's darkness sets the tone: intense woodiness, leather, tobacco, prunes. All on a rather sweet nose. On the palate, all this explodes and coats the whole palate. It's superb. The alcohol is peppery. Tobacco, leather and a superb cappuccino finish. Superbly integrated alcohol. Magnificent bitterness. Endless length.
Review by m8375e
Best Demerara I have tasted to date, a lot woodier than the rare collection 96 but the anise and licorice are quite stunning.
Review by alex
But what a treat to be able to taste this little juice 🤩🤩 A real bonbon It's very gourmand and at the same time very complex. I gave it a nice half-hour aeration before I started dipping my lips in it Beautiful aromas, of leather, chocolate, caramel, vanilla, a magnificent woodiness... Very good length on the palate, with very well-integrated alcohol. It's just magnificent 😍
Review by Pavel Spacek
... Enmore - drive still, now just a functional still. Apparently the only wooden still in the world that enjoys great popularity. The Enmore rums have a flavour of ash, leather, heavy wood, which will delight especially the lovers of whiskey. And if in the traditional Guyanese way the producer adds a little molasses to the rum, you have a unique very distinctive and heavy rum in the bottle. One of my favourites.
Review by Rodolphe
Intense and very good. I expected it to be better. But on the attack I was taken over by a slightly acidic tobacco taste, a feeling I didn't find pleasant. It fades quickly. I'll have to try it again another time to see if I get this feeling as much or maybe I just shouldn't have expected so much... aaah the psycho side... 😁
Review by Romanodeltauro
On the nose, this rum is very pleasant, on prunes and caramel with a few hints of spice and wood. On the palate, however, it's more difficult: a very strange sensation persists, on Coca-Cola with a pronounced spiciness. A few seconds after this unpleasant sensation, the rum gives way to burnt sugar and licorice, still with a hint of caramel and prunes.
Review by Filip Šikula
It's more restrained on the nose compared to the top enmorums, a little thinner on the palate, but on the other hand it offers a complex experience with wood and alcohol well integrated, and the fruit component comes through nicely. A nice piece
Review by Arthur Moreau
A different profile from my usual, intriguing, a marked woodiness without being sickening. A region to explore for a more pertinent opinion.
Review by P-O Côté
Very interesting! The nose is so dense and rich it's hard to get lost! Gourmand with a certain freshness
Review by Fred Rozier
Alcohol very well integrated. An elegant woodiness, a superb rum 😋😋
Review by Anders Bovien
Nose perfect mouth spicy and more bitter than I thought
Review by Adrien B

Expert review by Zucker und Zeste
A great rum that shows what an old Enmore has to offer. Already in the nose it is intense and powerful. The fruitiness comes through very well. The alcohol is incredibly well integrated.
