Enmore S.B.S Guyana REV

Woody, licorice, and dark chocolate—bold Demerara character.

Aromas of wood, tobacco, and licorice lead into a palate of dark chocolate, prunes, and pronounced herbal notes. The consensus: layered and robust, with some bitterness but exceptional complexity—an authoritative Guyana rum for serious enthusiasts.

    How does this rum taste?

    Deep woody and licorice profile
    Very long, complex finish
    Smooth despite high ABV

    Intense licorice and rich woody notes headline this 26-year-old Enmore from Guyana, rounded out by dark chocolate, tobacco, and prunes. The profile is unmistakably mature and complex, presenting deep, bittersweet layers with a long, satisfying finish. A touch of bitterness is noted, but many find it balanced by elegance and remarkable drinkability at cask strength. Worth a sip for fans of old Demerara rums with a dark, contemplative edge.

     Not quite on the outstanding level of the other bottlings from 1994, which could possibly also be due to the lower alcohol content and the associated, somewhat reduced aromatics - but REV nevertheless remains an outstanding marque that knows how to convince constantly.

     Compared to other ‘94 REVs, this so far has the ‚darkest‘ and thickest nose leaning towards herbal and more woody/smokey notes. This is also reflected on the palate making this one the most woody of the batch so far.

     Overall, we like this rum very much. The nose smells dark chocolate, dried fruit and tobacco. In the mouth very complex, spicy, but also quite woody. It is also extremely soft and elegant with a slight bitter note. It has an incredibly long finish with flavors of prunes, spices and lots of licorice. Really great. But 320 euros? Phew. Cheaper you will get such a rum soon but no more.

     An exceptional rum, but too woody for my taste! But that's complaining on a high level! The rum is great! Edit: In the glass again today and I have to improve here. I suspect that my taste perception has changed somewhat. Today it seems much rounder and more accessible to me. Despite the relatively light ABV, it is very complex and deep. It develops a very wide range of dark aromas. 0.4 points upwards corrected
