Aged for 23 years with an ABV of 57.6%, it showcases woody, vanilla, and tropical fruit notes, complemented by a whiskey cask finish. Despite its rich profile, some users feel the whiskey influence overshadows traditional rum characteristics, impacting the balance. While appreciated for its oily texture and integrated flavors, opinions vary regarding the blend of rum and whiskey notes. Suitable for those seeking a unique rum experience, this Enmore expression provides an intriguing and bold alternative to typical releases.

    Belle texture Huileuse très à mon goût ! Mais la finition en fût de whisky gâche un peu le plaisir

    I was a bit disappointed because these rare releases are usually pretty good. This one however fell outside the normal range and is a bit out of balance in my mind. I'd say their regular Small Batch Rare Rums Enmore is better. Price to quality is off on this one by quite a margin actually.

    Oha, there must have been a whiskey finish involved. It's not my taste, but the finish is at least discreet and not too ostentatious.
