CoR Enmore Guyana EHP 1993 29yr 43,5%

"It's clear to see what's happened here: the quality of bottled rum leaves much to be desired, and with ever-higher prices. Typical Enmore spices (aniseed, licorice, pepper), toasted oak, raisins and a touch of flowers and honey can be detected, but the nose remains very reserved, not to say insipid. The rum doesn't fare much better on the palate: the relatively low degree makes for a light, not so aromatic rum with an impression of dilution (even if it wasn't, in theory at least). Spices, wood, caramel and dried fruit make up the entire aromatic and taste spectrum, and this with low intensity. The finish is very short, with the same aromas. No sooner swallowed than forgotten, this rum will not be remembered by its bottler or distillery, except for its irrational price tag, especially when El Dorado releases an Enmore of the same vintage, under tropical aging, for half the price and twice the flavor."
