“Wow! Enmore at its finest: licorice, leather, plum, wood...positive surprise! For me, in the absolute top group of 1992 Enmores, because here, despite the many heavy flavors, an almost filigree profile is created, which comes along a little less heavy than the other releases, but exactly by this "lightness" in a positive sense independence. Downright noble - or simply excellent.”

“Lots of dark, toasty associations. Lots of licorice and plums. Demanding rum that needs a lot of attention, but then rewards with an uncanny complexity and sophistication. Outstanding 1992 Enmore!”

“An excellent Enmore, less heavy and strong, but with all the markers that make an Enmore! Beautiful, dark and heavy. Lots of spice, dried fruit, dark chocolate and a wonderfully long finish, and it all harmonizes in a very balanced ratio!”

“A very old enmore with its typical markers: dark wood, candied prunes, chocolate, spices, old leather. Super tasty, super well made. Very nice selection. Thanks to the app and to rum sponge for the game that allowed me to win the samples!”

“Overall the best Sponge rum I’ve tasted. The aromas is a little weak but it’s possible to detect some smoke, tobacco and leather. At the palate it really explodes with flavors of smoke, tobacco, leather, oak and licorice. Wowwww!”

“An Enmore from a surprisingly unexplored vintage, despite its incredible qualities. The nose is very warm, bursting with spices of all kinds (pepper, licorice, vanilla) that combine well with the dark, sweet oakiness typical of Enmore of yesteryear. Empyreumatic notes (smoke, roast, tobacco) are counterbalanced by prunes, raisins, tea and aromatic herbs. A homogeneous, intense and elegant nose. On the palate, a gripping, complex and aromatic rum is revealed. Empyreumatic flavors lend a dark, powerful edge to the palate. This sensation is reinforced by wood, leather and dried fruit, giving a warmer, more tannic feel on the palate. However, floral, tea and herbal scents provide a welcome breath of freshness that balances everything out. The alcohol is well integrated. The interminable finish is bitter, heavy and rich, with notes of dried fruit, tobacco, wood, spice and empyreum. A final, rather greedy but dry sensation that signals the end of the final bouquet. An exceptional Enmore, very well selected by the bottler.”

“Wow, this is a very good Guyana. Extremely well balanced not only in the ABV but also the wood. Usually this old rums are dominated by the wood, but not this one. Fruity with some really nice spices and caramel. The finish is extremely long and nice. I had to drink water 3 times before I was ready for the next sample! Draws really nice curtains in the glass and the empty glass is equally wonderful and I can pick up some chocolate and faint leather.”

“A rum tasted online with Angus MacRaild. Strong color. Angus seemed proud of his choice for this Enmore, a distillery (mark) he considers the most interesting in Guyana. The nose is dark and deep, with sandalwood, licorice and fresh tobacco. The palate is a continuation of the nose, with more vigor. Still sandalwood and licorice, but also dried fruit (prunes). The finish is long, with the same sandalwood, woodiness and freshness. I never tire of smelling the empty glass, which tells a medieval story of a castle smelling of smoke, with the door to the herbalist's shop wide open. My favorite of the evening.”

“Rum Sponge - RumX-live-Tasting, the third of the evening and for me a highlight, as I had expected. Old and real cask strength. Nose: incredibly dense and intense aromas. Very full-bodied and delicate. Very dark-roasted and yet fruity. Dried plum, dried apricot and dried bitter orange. There is also plenty of liquorice, baking spice and leather as well as old furniture polish. A nose to sniff forever. 9.2 Palate: yes, wonderful! Full-bodied, intense and yet balanced. Woody, roasted and spicy, but not too much of everything. A good shot of wood acidity at the beginning, followed by liquorice, fat pecan, umami, perhaps also tonka bean. Lots of sour-tart treacle. But also dried plum and dried blood orange. Great aroma 9.2”

“A very dark, floral and smoky Enmore, with a good load of earth and leather. Unfortunately, there's not much fruit. Very briefly even some bacon on the nose, which rather repels me than turns me on. Dark, lots of leather, spicy and earthy in the mouth. Fortunately, a little more fruit with a heavy sweetness on the finish. Overall, unfortunately not my favourite aromas, but I recognize that this is a complex and high-quality rum.”

“RumX Community lottery tasting and the highlight nicely placed in the middle. An Enmore that makes you shine. Not too intense there are others. But fantastically balanced and aromatically diverse. With a little time in the glass even a little spicier. There remains only thanks to RumX and Angus that I was allowed to try this great stuff 😊”
