How does this rum taste?
The Botanica Series from The Wild Parrot presents a 33-year-old molasses-based rum distilled in 1991 at the Enmore distillery, Guyana. Through adept aging in Coffey stills, this rum is bottled at cask strength (49.8% ABV), capturing the essence of its long maturation journey. Aromatic complexities include woody, roasted, herbal, and minty nuances while its palate reveals deep leather, woody, and roasted notes with a slight raisin flavor, critically praised for its remarkable balance and lengthy finish. Notable for its refined woody finish and subtle mint undertones, it’s perceived as a smooth and approachable option though its price might deter some.

#4872 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, faint smoke, light herbal, light mint, plum, faint cherry, light leather, spice. Palate Balance, wood, light roasted, leather, light mint, light coffee, raisin, plum, spice, oily, light herbal, faint medicinal. Finish Long, wood, faint smoke, dried fruit, light plum, light tannins, faint leather, oily, faint coffee, light mint. A very nice and easy drinkable release though the price tage is relatively hight. ABV and wood integration is near perfect.
Relatively sweet and accessible KFM. Just right for a relaxed evening.
The Wild Parrot unveils here an Enmore that is, in my opinion, on the verge of aging too much. The nose reveals the lovely roasted, malty, cocoa and reglissed notes of old Enmore, with that baked caramel reminiscent of molasses and those rather greedy raisins and prunes. There's also a slight herbaceousness, a slightly more pronounced bitterness with wood and rather warm spices. The nose is elegant and shows a rum that has benefited from its advanced age. On the palate, this Enmore is like a grandfather telling stories to his grandchildren: calm, wise but a little less lively. Tobacco and leather round out a dark profile of dark chocolate, molasses, licorice, roasted wood, warm spices, dried fruit (grapes) and overcooked caramel. The rum is delicate and bitter, but lacks body and life. The alcohol is well integrated for the degree. The finish corresponds to the moment when the grandfather takes a nap, lacking a little length and becoming more timid. There's wood, pepper, coffee, leather, malt, dark chocolate/cocoa, licorice, raisins, but also notes of black tea and molasses that amplify the bitterness. A lovely Enmore with experience, but unfortunately no longer at its peak to claim the heights. Moreover, the price for a story of forebears is a little excessive compared to what's available on the market.
Whisky Live Paris 2024 (trade fair evaluation, only overall rating and personal recommendation to buy): Very tasty on the nose, with everything a KFM should have, unfortunately a little thin on the palate. Delicious again on the finish, with nice notes of mint. But I don't have to have a bottle of it.
