Silver Seal Enmore Demerara New Vibrations 1988
Highly praised for its elegant old-Demerara nose, dark fruit and leathery wood, with classic Enmore character. Some find the long aging makes it a bit too woody and tight on the palate.
Enthusiasts who enjoy mature, woody Demeraras with prunes, leather and tannins, especially whisky drinkers who like smoky or oak-driven profiles and want to explore old Enmore rum.

How does this rum taste?
Elegant, deeply woody old Enmore
If you like mature, oak-forward Demeraras like older Enmore or Port Mourant bottlings, this will appeal, but be ready for assertive wood and a drier, tighter palate.
Beginners, drinkers who dislike strong oak and tannins, or anyone seeking a rich, sweet, full-bodied sipper at lower price points.

A rum tasted at the WLP. A splendid nose of prune, wood and light leather. The palate is rather (too) tight and tannic, but with lovely stewed fruit. A fine finish, a little too woody. A rum that's a little thin and tight in the mouth. I expected much better.
Really tasted on the bottom of a glass, so it's hard to tell, but clearly it's wise. Perhaps even too wise, obviously 34 years old is a mark. The fruit and wood are there, but next to that it's timid, and after a roller coaster of 5 intense rums, here we see a few ageing flaws. It's still very good and ultra affordable, of course.
Dont keep great rums in cask so long. Could be much better if taken out 8years ago. Woooooood!
Unfortunately, it seems very thin, at least in view of other Demerara releases of a similar age and from the same vintage. The basic product remains inspiring, but a bit too flat here.
