     Definitely on par with the predecessor 94 REV from Bellamys. Flavors a little more cassis, more burnt caramel, dark chocolate and rosemary / lavender, as well as dried fig and grapefruit peel. Also very tasty but really hard to say which one I like better!Flavor-wise this one is a bit more intense and has the longer finish due to the more %, but the other one is a bit more complex if you let it and has the nicer nose. Both at eye level!

     Less intense nose than its predecessor. On the palate, however, the higher percentages do it very well. Relatively little herbs and licorice for a REV - I like!

     A nose to fall in love with: dark fruity, spicy and woody-roasted. The first thing you notice is pencil lead and pencil shavings. Then a pleasant vinegar note with a fine orange aroma. Slightly acidic, dried currant, cola. Very full-bodied with a hint of chocolate. Wonderfully full-bodied and complex on the palate. Spicy, roasted and woody. Here too, slight pencil shavings at the beginning, then dark malty, chocolaty-cocoa with a little aniseed and nutmeg. Dried oranges and dried plums meet brioche. Leather and tobacco on the back. Remains pleasantly woody, roasted and spicy in the finish. A great old Enmore. For me, as a Demerara fan, a real treat.
