Demerara notes paired with ester and sherry. Wow, this one is really fun. A real experience!

Very nice marriage of glue with sherry, herbs and sea salt. I really like it! The crucial question is: how would it be without sherry finish? I could imagine he would go clearly in the direction of Velier Uitvlugt 97 not tropical....

Very nice rum, complex and very concentrated. But two concerns that prevent it from being at the top: too much marked by solvents on the nose and why finish in Sherry cask? It doesn't bring anything, it adds other aromas but it was not necessary... I would have preferred clearly without finish...

incredibly good and beautiful enmore! new cask strength reference for me! blatantly intense Oloroso Sherry notes, plus after 2-3 drops of water a nice menthol mint freshness, plus honey banana, maoam cola crackers and incredibly smooth and fruity, thick and oily. Zero too much wood as usual with enmore and just extremely harmonious! Fat!

Nose: Burnt molasses. Taste: Funky esters, but sweet - almost vinous - and easy to drink. Spices (cinnamon, cardamom, pepper) and caramel.

How can this be 58,7% abv?! Dangerously easy to sip. I tried taking a significantly bigger sip than I usually do, and yes, the alcohol is present, but damn what a mild and soft burn it gives, the alcohol integration is 10/10. Instead you are rewarded with an explosion of flavour. Oily, fruity, acidic, woody and full of spices, with smoke and glue in the finish. It resembles a little like a low-mid ester Worthy Park? This just gets better and better for each sip i take.. Definitely worth it's RRP, not easy to find anymore tho.

Je recherche encore le profil Enmore. Je suis clairement parti sur un profil Jam et non Demerara. J’aurais misé sur un long pond à l’aveugle. Superbe produit sauf si on s’attend à un enmore

Die Schärfe erschlägt alles. Auch nach 1h „atmen“. Das ist Schade. Ich frage mich nach wie vor, warum bei alkoholischer Faßstärke so eine Schörfe entsteht. Das ist bei Whisky viel besser eingebunden. Keine Köstlichkeit. Wer Klebstoff mag, sollte Klebstoff trinken. Man kann natürlich Demerara Distillers keinen schlechten Sprit vorwerfen. Zu viele Aldehyde! Methanol? Formaldehyd? Vorläufige Erklärung: Reifebedingungen bei hohem Temperaturen. Wasser verdunstet mehr als Alkohol.
