The Whisky Jury Enmore 1988

 Classic profile of the 1988 Enmores, heavy dark fruits meet wood, leather and spice. Holds its own in direct comparison with other releases of the vintage very successfully, only the last tick of intensity is missing something for me.

 Sehr guter Tropfen. Super Gesamtkombo, die Volumenzahl lässt nichts vermissen. Er bringt eine schöne Balance mit, die sich sowohl in der Nase als auch im Mund vielfältig zeigt. Sehr lecker zu trinken.

 A very well balanced and complex rum where the ABV is perfectly integrated. The barrel is most present on the palate and the fruits are really nice and go well with the licorice and coffee. I really like the light floral/herbal touch in there.

 I like better than the Nobilis and even a little better than the Rum Cask. On the nose dried fruit (raisin,fig), leather, spices and caramel. The barrel impact is not too dominant for the 33 years that the rum has on the hump. Dates, leather, licorice and coffee on the palate. As with the other two 88 Enmores, the ABV is rather low, but the intense flavors here compensate for that extremely well.

 A good Enmore on the bitter woody side! Either you like it or hate it! Actually zuvieL Fasseinschlag is not so mine, but in this case it still fits and it harmonizes with the dried fruits, coffee and leather! Nothing for every evening ... but very enjoyable!

 Wonderfully balanced 88 Enmore. Spices, toasty aromas, dried dark fruits. Slight sweetness, but nicely cushioned with licorice and some pencil. For 92/93 points lack a few percent ABV, but overall really succeeded and clearly above the TRC Enmore 88 as a similar comparison.

 Already the sight of the red-brown rum in the glass raises expectations.The nose starts already phenomenal: candied dried fruit, rust aromas, wood and spice hold the balance wonderfully.This continues on the palate but with more emphasis on the barrel aromas and salty licorice joins.The finish is very long and again shifted a bit towards the barrel and tannins.This rum can not hide that he was 32 years in the barrel. The nicer that the typical Enmore profile is clearly recognizable. A rum for a whole evening!

 Very good Versailles, but rather on the bitter side.

 Very nice selection. The enmore of the dark side of the force 😁 This is also its weak point for me. The cask ended up marking this rum too much. I think I would have preferred it a few years younger. But this is purely a matter of personal taste.

 Very nice nose. Extremely well balanced. Palate is dryer with hints of smoke but it doesn't last very long. A strong release though 💪

 Last of the sample. Very well balanced and the alcohol is incorporated very well. Nuts, spices and wood. Maybe misses a bit of a punch for palate lately, but nonetheless quite good.

 Very nice profile. The long aging brings decent wood in the drop. Otherwise, less fruity, less bulky.

 Winner tonight, love the heavy/dark notes that wave from nose to finish. Dark fruits, leather, tobacco, mushrooms, roasted sugar. Very intense and yet well integrated with a long finish.
