CoR Enmore Guyana REV 1994 29yr 45,8%

"A rum tasted at the WLP. A vegetal, tobacco nose with a clear note of Earl Grey tea (bergamot). A palate with black tea and a compote of prunes and other fruits with a dark profile. The finish is far too bitter for a higher rating."

"A nice Enmore REV on paper, the nose is attractive and warm with spices and dark notes ranging from coffee and cocoa to more roasted and woody aromas, passing through touches of prunes and hints of tobacco and aromatic herbs. A structured nose that lacks a little depth compared to other Enmore wines of the same mark. The palate is warm and comforting, like a good drink during the cold of winter. Black tea, oak, spices and prunes mingle to produce something easy-drinking, but lacking in character with the rather low alcohol content. The cask influence is noticeable, perhaps a little extreme, and despite notes of licorice and salt that remain appreciable, it's not enough to create emotion. The finish brings this rum to an end, too short and bitter. Baked caramel, molasses, heavy fruit sweetness and dark notes of Demerara are not enough to make up for the structural shortcomings of the product, which is clearly among the least spectacular in its category. This may sound like a high-flying review, but the price and the mark impose a certain requirement that we don't necessarily find here."
