Enmore Kill Devil 1992
The surprise here is how dark and savoury this gets: cedar cigar box, coffee, licorice and prunes, with a "goût de rôti" roasted-meat edge some tasters flag. It's the classic Enmore Versailles wooden-still profile — dry, tannic, a touch bitter. The recurring gripe: at 46% it feels dialed down, and several wish it were cask strength to fully open up.
The community says- Roasted Versailles profile
- Long dry finish

How does Enmore Kill Devil 1992 taste?
Aggregated from 32 community reviews.
Roasted, woody Enmore held back by 46% Most love the smoky, roasted Versailles character and long dry finish. The steady complaint: 46% tames it, so it reads a little thin for 25 years — good, not the great it could be.

Review by Michael Zörer
Intense rum, dense, heavy, mature, woody. Somewhat bitter, definitely not a flatterer. Lies oily in the glass, the 46% fits me well here. Mature rum, demanding, wants to be enjoyed slowly.
Review by Serge
kontinentaler Demerara mit wirklich schönem Versailles Profil : Viel Frucht und intensiver Geschmack auf den typischen Markern trotz geringem ABV. Auch die Bitterkeit ist – im Vergleich zu anderen alten Versailles – sehr zurückhaltend. Gefällt mir sehr gut.
Review by Joachim Guger
Schönes, warmes Demerara-Profil. Sehr ausgewogen. Im Mund dann reichlich Tannin, gute Trinkstärke. Es mag kräftiger, komplexere und aufregendere kontinental gereifte Demeraras geben, aber dieser bringt das Versailles-Geschmacksprofil auf den Punkt und ist dabei sehr süffig.
Review by cigares
This rum perfumes the room when poured. Cedar wood (cigar box) dominates the nose, but bergamot and prunes are not far off. A real taste of roast completes this atypical nose. The palate is initially almost entirely woody (cedar), with some prune and dried fruit remaining and a roasted base, like cooled roast fat on the finish. Astonishing! The finish is long and citrus reappears at the very end. Phew! The empty glass is complex and much more balanced than the mouth. A highly aromatic and far from uninteresting rum, but too dominated by a too monolithic expression of wood for my taste.

20.08.2021 Sitting at home with some samples. Notes Medium to dark in colour. Nose Wood, light roasted, apple, light leather, dried fruit, faint caramel, faint coffee. Palate Oily, wood, light chocolate, raisin, plum, light banana, light coffee, faint floral, vanilla, light leather. Finish Medium to long, wood, roasted, raisin, prunes, light coffee, faint chocolate.
Review by Manuel
Sehr typisches Profil eines Guyana Rums. Relativ dunkelbraune Farbe im Glas. In der Nase sehr fruchtige aber holzige Enflüsse. Der Abgang ist eher mittellang, ganz leichte süße im Abgang. Ganz solider Rum.
Review by w00tAN
Schönes Teil. Die Nase ist ziemlich fruchtig für das Alter aber die Würze dominiert gefolgt von Röst- und Holznoten. Im Mund dann ebenso würzig und ziemlich kräuterig
Review by SuppenHuhn
Dem Rum fehlt eindeutig an Kraft. Fassstärke würde ihm gut tun. Leichte Bitterkeit macht mir das Bild ein wenig kaputt. Hatte mir mehr erhofft. Ihm fehlt an Charakter und Tiefe. Gefallen tut mir jedoch die leichte Frische die er mitbringt. Alles in allem für mich kein Kandidat für eine Großflasche
