Unexpectedly thin Enmore, despite appealing nose.

With a noteworthy nose of dried fruit and coconut, the Dos Delinquentes offers an unexpectedly thin and flat tasting profile, often described as uninspiring, despite its 26-year aging.

    How does this rum taste?

    The Flensburg Rum Company Dos Delinquentes, co-bottled with Wu Dram Clan, originates from the Enmore distillery in Guyana, distilled in 1998 and aged for 26 years. Despite its appealing nose featuring dried fruit, coconut, and sweet caramel notes, the tasting experience often reveals a thin, flat profile with pronounced vanilla and woody elements. Users note a disappointing discrepancy between expectations and reality, citing a soapy aftertaste and lack of depth. Opinions suggest this limited edition wasn't marketed accurately to rum enthusiasts seeking classic Enmore robust flavors. Engaging with a unique blend, it's either praised for its elegant nose or criticized for not matching the classic Demerara rum strength.

    "28.08.2024 Retasting after another sample was open for a few hours and then closed again. Today the sample has very different notes than at the first sampling. --------------------------- #4778 13.07.2024 Relaxing with a little sample 😊 This is very far from an Enmore and what you'd expect. Very light/thin with citrus touch and soap like on the palate. Will try to get another sample to make sure this is correct. Just checked the empty glass and i has a perfume/soapy touch to it."

    "First of all, I found the bottler's communication suboptimal. I would have preferred it to say directly: EHP, 26 years, continental. After that, you can let off steam in flowery sentences and teasers. But ok. The sample had already been ordered when it became clear that it was a continental EHP. So there were also few expectations. The nose is surprisingly delicious with coconut, chocolate, cinnamon, dried fruit but also a nice fruitiness and some mint. On the palate, however, it really can hardly deliver ... quite nice overall, but there are tropical EHPs for the price ... e.g. the 1996 from the rare collection. And there's a world of difference. So: not a bad rum, but certainly not worth the price."

    "Spontan Tasting mit FischeJ auf der Dachterrasse von unserem Hotel. Erstmal danke für die ganzen Drams und das nette Gespräch. Zum Rum selber, für mich ein total Reinfall. Entwickelt nach einiger Zeit eine seifige/parfümmige Note, die aber unangenehm ist. Zum Glück habe ich den ausgelassen. Insgesamt sehr dünn und nichtssagend! Hätte man sich auch sparen können. Leider keine Cola zum versenken gehabt"

    "Interesting and intense on the nose. Vanilla, wood, coconuts and some honey. The Armagnac finish clearly did some work here adding ample of grapes and dried fruits. There are also more earthy and herbal notes - I get menthol and eucalyptus. Interesting twist on an EHP nose with emphasis on the finish. Nice. Hm… on the palate it starts very thin and non-present. This turns into a very watered-down Armagnac sensation. There is some woodiness and a hint of spices. I don’t get much Enmore „feel“ from this. So all in all, this is wired. The nose is an interesting and enjoyable experiment. On the palate, however, this tastes to me like a thin „strange“ Armagnac of some sort. Not too bad, but nothing I would recommend. If you want an Armagnac- get one. If you are looking for an Enmore EHP profile (even a continentally aged one) you need to look somewhere else."
