How does this rum taste?
Versailles Foundations KFM is a rare rum produced in Guyana's Enmore distillery, selected by The Colours of Rum. Distilled in 1991 from molasses and aged for 33 years, this limited release of just 162 bottles offers a striking profile with a 48.3% ABV. Tasting notes reveal a distinctive aroma of rubber, barrel, and toasted elements, complemented by a taste that leans towards coffee and metallic tones. While some find it dry without bitterness, others feel the woodiness overpowers its complexity. Despite varying opinions on its price-to-quality ratio, enthusiasts often highlight its aromatic intensity and mature character, typical of the KFM mark.

Whisky Live Paris 2024: Very aromatic, intense rubber, wood and spice notes, after some time in the glass also subtle dried fruit aromas. Dry on the finish, but not astringent. Great cask, a KFM at a high level.
#4859 Whisky Live in Paris 27.09.2024-30.09.2024. Another great event meeting a lot of RumX new and old friends. This year three weren't as many new releases as in 2023, but I still had a great time. Nose Wood, light roasted, light mint, plum, tannins, faint citrus, faint leather, light caramel, spice. Palate Wood, light roasted, spicy, light leather, mint, plum, light herbal, medium dry, faint coffee. Finish Medium to long, wood, roasted, light tannins, light licorice, prunes, medium dry, light herbal. This is an OK rum but the price tag is once again outweighing the quality.
A charming, subtle Enmore, captivating the nose with its innumerable spices, dark, elegant old oak, chocolate, leather and roasted notes. Plum, prune and toffee give voice to a highly concentrated yet surprisingly smooth profile. Floral and herbaceous notes add freshness to this warm ensemble. On the palate, the profile is just as concentrated: dark, woody, roasted and spicy notes combine with dark chocolate, coffee, leather and other spices to keep the palate in their grip. Plum and grape complement each other with pretty medicinal and herbal notes that move on to black tea, molasses and a hint of bitterness. The profile is dry but not overpowering, disappearing fairly quickly in the end. The alcohol is well integrated for its relatively low level. The finish struggles to open up. The profile is dry but slender, with that concentration of spice and licorice, wood tannins, that grassy, medicinal edge and subtle fruit (raisin, plum, prune). A quality Enmore that has already exceeded its prime and clearly doesn't want its price tag.
Dark, rusty and very dry - but without becoming bitter. Great KFM!
