Enmore Flensburg Rum Company Guyana (Kirsch Whisky) KFM

"Compared to its 2020 predecessor, much more balanced and not as bitter. Nevertheless, borderline bitterness in the finish. Meanwhile, I can handle it better, however, and no longer find it annoying. Makes absolutely fun!"

"In direct comparison to the FRC predecessor, the nose is somewhat more restrained and the rum is also much milder on the palate than its predecessor. Both the tart tea note and the roastiness is much less intense here, but this does not harm the rum at all - rather, this actually creates an exciting bottling, which complements last year's release coherently. For me, the 2021 edition has the nose in front, because I like the balance on the palate a little more."

"WoW This is one of my favorite profiles 🤤🤤 Wonderfull mix of wood, licorice, minty, eucalyptus and herbal notes! Without being to bitter or astringend! The Alcohol is integrated very well 👍🏻 In direct comparison to the Flensburg KFM 1991 from the previous year and the nobilis no.10, this one wins by far."

"Ein sehr intensiver und ausgewogener guter Rum… eine angenehme Nase und Komplex am Gaumen … der Abgang ist lang, holzig und leicht bitter… Eine gelungene Abfüllung Edit: Ein weiteres mal im Glas: Im Großem und Ganzen bleibe ich bei meiner ersten Bewertung, aufgrund der Komplexität am Gaumen, gebe ich 0,1 Punkte mehr"

"The 2020 was not quite our rum, it was too bitter for us and thus quite one-dimensional. In the still one year older barrel, this bitterness and the tannins are also still clearly present, but surprisingly more relaxed and homogeneously integrated into the overall aroma. This leaves more room for the spiciness and dried fruit. We liked it considerably better. The finish is very long and varied with a very long final mint note."

"Until I tasted the Haubariria, this rum is my KFM-1991 reference. Fortunately, there is also this 2nd bottling from Flensburg, considered by many as more successful, still here and there almost at the release price 😉. A worthy and spicy conclusion to the weekend at the Pueblo del Ron in Nuremberg."

"What a beast! 90s Versailles they can in Flensburg. Yes, the rum is bitter, but it is also damn horny! You look in vain for fruit here - some dried fruit flashes through here and there. The dirty notes dominate: Tar, resin, swarming, leather, smoke and wood. This doesn't sound like my preferred profile, but it goes 100%. The mouthfeel is so intense yet well balanced with no off notes - this is very impressive. Compared to the RA, the bitterness is much better integrated into the herbaceous aromatic spectrum and the alcohol is very well integrated. Another top Demerera from FRC!Compared to the RA and the Nobilis also by far the best bottling."

"Für mich absolut an der Grenze was Bitterkeit angeht, daher kann ich leider keine höhere Punktzahl geben. Ich hab eben noch nie gerne an Bleistiften gelutscht oder Ledersessel gekaut✏️😝🤷🏼‍♂️ aber dafür deutlich besser wie der Vorgänger der auch weniger % hatte... Update: auch einige Jahre später nach wie vor für mich einer der schwächsten 91erKFMs. Leider kaum Fruchtnoten vorhanden, extrem trocken und adstringierend. Auch vermisse ist generell etwas an Komplexität."

"Very heavy on the nose. Honestly reminds me of SBS’s The Beast. The rest is much more balanced and enjoyable, however ;)"

"Almost syrupy wood and herbal blend with a long finish. On the palate, a specific herbal spiciness of mint and eucalyptus. Red fruits discreetly in the background that round out the whole. Alcohol perfectly integrated. Needs time to breathe."

"This is a super KFM in my mind and at release the price was really good compared to what you get. A heavy and dirty KFM with some fruit and nice herbal notes as well as leather and smoky wood. The finish is extremely as in extremely long and the empty glass is like heaven after an hour. Even the day after the notes were still present in the glass."

"Wonderful KFM! I like very well, even the bitterness mentioned by many does not bother me at all. Multilayered / complex rum that needs a lot of time."

"Really good rum. I like it very much. Beautifully complex and multilayered, long finish. But already quite bitter."

"Calendrier de l’Avant Rum Friendly Club, jour 23. Un nez très boisé et vanillé mais pas monolithique car derrière se cachent des fruits secs, pruneaux et noix et même un léger menthol et des fruits frais qui donnent ici une fraîcheur bienvenue. La bouche est austère, très boisée, un bois humide à la Enmore. Mais comme au nez, la complexité se révèle petit à petit et après les fruits secs et les noix, se révèlent quelques fruits frais, du cuir et une touche de menthol qui rafraîchit une belle finale longue, amère et marquée par le bois. Un très beau rhum ici, dans l’équilibre malgré une charge massive de bois."

"91er KFM mit den typischen Merkmalen. Nicht so bitter wie der Vorgänger, aber auch nicht so gut wie die Topvertreter des Vintage (Tamosi, Bellamy oder vor allem der Cadenhead). Aber dafür auch günstiger zu haben."
