Enmore El Dorado Rare Collection EHP 1993
Well-liked but rarely called the best of the Rare Collection. A 22-year Enmore from the wooden Coffey still that noses beautifully — dried apricot, raisin, caramel, chocolate, old varnished wood — but many taste a lighter, spicier palate with a chili-pepper kick and a short-to-medium finish. Several find the mouth doesn't match the nose, and a few think the 1996 sibling wins.
The community says- Gorgeous nose

How does Enmore El Dorado Rare Collection EHP 1993 taste?
Aggregated from 127 community reviews.
Warm Demerara sipper, nose beats palate Most call it a lovely, warm Demerara sipper with a great nose, but a recurring gripe is that the palate turns spicy and the finish falls short. Good, not top-tier for the line.

Another tasting where all the likes have disappeared 🤔 26.10.2025 Part 1 Today we have an El Dorado Rare Cask online tasting and I've been looking forward to it. I will keep the score and just enjoy the rums and I have all of them on my shelves as well. ---------------- This is a great rum and it really stands out even compared to the other Enmore's. A very well balanced rum with one of the best noses I have ever sampled. A rum well worth the price tag.

I like the standard range from El Dorado better, including the fantastic 25yo.
Review by Oliver
Sehr einladende Nase mit getrockneten Aprikosen, Rosinen und zarten Schokoladennoten. Der Gaumen kann dann leider nicht ganz mit der phantastischen Nase mithalten. Leichte alkoholische Schärfe wahrnehmbar - war kurz sogar bei ungezuckertem, spanischem Stil in Fassstärke. Das ist aber Kritik auf hohem Niveau. Relativ trocken, würzig und angenehme Holznoten. Sehr schöner Enmore!
Review by Giorgio Garotti
A really well done enmore from eldorado!An elegant and balanced rum in all its aromas!
Review by Joachim Guger
Very oily, wonderful red-golden color. A great nose!!! Very warm, perfectly balanced. Alcohol not noticeable. Very nice and spicy in the mouth. Strong and warm. Not woody despite the long storage in the tropics. Warm, beautiful finish. The perfect Demerara sipper and a "beautiful" rum.😀😀😀 However, it lacks that certain something to ascend to the Olympus of the Rare Collection.
Review by Tschusikowsky
Very good, especially the nose. The chocolate flavor I like extremely well. However, the citrus content is too high for me, neat acidity. And the finish turns out relatively short.
Review by Tim
Toller tropisch gereifter Enmore, der aber verglichen zum ED 1996 etwas schwächer abschneidet. Es fehlt die Komplexität und Intensität, vor allem am Gaumen. Natürlich trotzdem ein sehr guter Rum, der sehr lecker ist. Viel röstiges, Frucht, brauner Zucker und dunkle Fasseinflüsse.
Review by LukaŽiga
8,6:On the nose, the first impression we get is a combination of varnish, roasted wood notes like nuts, burnt sugar and chocolate, spicy with cinnamon, fruity tones with dried apricots and raisins, some perfume. On aeration, pencil shavings and minty molasses arise, yellow, citrus fruits and coconut, butterscotch and nutella. 8,9:On the palate, the attack is sweet, delicious with dried fruits, coconut, pairing roasted wood notes with butterscotch, chocolate, leather and some spiciness with pepper, vanilla, tobacco.When the rum is oxidized, it becomes really buttery, balanced, perhaps slightly meaty, Demerara sugar is there, citrus fruits with lime. 8,7:The finish is long, dry and tannic, the barrel impact is strong, with slightly smoky roasted wood notes, spicy, variety of fruits and tobacco.. Edit:10.10.25
Review by lukasdrinkinghabits
Habe die beiden El Dorado Enmores parallel im Glas. Mir fehlt bisher die Erfahrung mit dem EHP Mark. Die Nase vom 1993er ist sehr weich und gefällig: Kaffee (auch mit der Säure vom Kaffee), Röstaromen, dunkles Karamell, Nutella, Trockenfrüchte und etwas Grapefruit. Gefällt mir sehr gut. Der Mund ist überraschend leicht, saurer als erwartet, aber vom Profil ansonsten ähnlich. Aber weniger angenehm, verbrannt, bitter und sauer er teilweise. Es fehlt auch die Intensität, insbesondere hin zum Abgang. Der ist zwar schön nussig, aber sehr mild und nicht sehr lang. Ein schöner Rum, der aber unter seinem Potential bleibt. Mein Sample ist aber schon über zwei Jahre offen, die Oxidation kann den Eindruck etwas verfälscht haben. Insgesamt sind das zwei gefällige Rum, mit klaren Demerara Profil aber auch einer lechten Column Still Beliebigkeit. Der 1996er ist tatsächlich ein Stück besser als der 1993er
Review by Jakob
Compared directly with the '95 Velier and '96 ED, it does surprisingly well - definitely an option within striking distance, although the Velier in particular is still a tad ahead.
Review by Rodolphe
Match vs the 1996: the nose is quite similar but a little less caramel than the 1996. I found it nicer. On the other hand, for me, the 1996 easily wins. Deeper, darker and longer in the mouth. I found a little acidity on the finish in the 93 that the 96 does not have.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
crass sweet and quaffable enmore ! very horny! especially this lime, mint, plum and cocoa note is really fun 💯🤤
Review by TheRhumhoe
A nice Enmore, offering fresh and varnished notes of dried fruit, prunes, raisins and citrus that mix with the more traditional chocolate, vanilla and woody notes.The rum is more spicy and intense on the palate, but offers some citrus notes (lemon zest) that sharpen its profile. The finish is quite short, however, with aromas of chocolate, wood, oak, vanilla, chili, with a hint of smoke and menthol. An authentic rum from the original Enmore still.
Review by cigares
Beautiful flavors of dried fruit, dried apricot, citrus, old varnished wood. But also caramel and dried herbs. The attack on the palate is disappointing in comparison with the nose, marked by spiciness/pimento, which is not very pleasant, then dried fruits emerge with old varnished wood. Everything falls back into place once the spiciness has disappeared, and the finish is beautiful, bitter, complex and long. A fine Enmore, atypical, I regret the spiciness at the start of the palate.
Review by Henry Davies
The nose is pleasant with real caramel notes but on the lighter side. In the mouth the first feeling is that the alcohol is not as well integrated as it could be but again caramel and tobacco with some oak from the barrel influence. The finish is hotter than expected again with oak and coffee but not bad. My first DDL rare collection and while not up there with the best Demerara’s a perfectly solid rum
Review by Maxence
Very atypical profile for an Enmore. You expect something very dark and you find loads of round notes especially on the palate. It reminds me Enmore 1995 from Velier but less complex and expressive. A delicious easy sipper for sure 😋
Review by Serge
Out the back a bit sour and very very slightly bitter, roughly in the direction of how a lime disc causes it in a Ti Punch Vieux. Doesn't bother me too much, though. The nose is better than the palate, though.
Review by Timo Groeger
Irgendwas fehlt diesem Rum, wenn ich nur wüsste was :-) Ist jedenfalls auch very röstig, jedenfalls haben wir hier reichlich Kaffee und Vanille. Aber auch ne Runde Pfeffer und Schokolade. Jawoll, die Bayern ...
Review by Mopar Rules
Different animal than yesterday’s Foursquare. I already smelled the rum when the barkeeper poured it into the glass, sitting in a corner in the bar. The longer it sits in the glass, the more flavors I discover. Dried fruits, oranges, a nice balanced sweetness. Vanilla comes through after a while. The rum is very balanced, the alcohol very well integrated, smooth and complex. Roasty aromas and a really nice influence from the cask. Long, roasty and woody finish. Very nice!
Review by Boletus
Der anfänglich eher scheue Geruch entwickelt sich mit der Zeit sehr ansprechend und lädt zum ausgiebigen Schnuppern ein. Im Mund ist der Rum dann sehr geschmeidig und durchaus komplex mit ein paar seifig-floralen Anklängen an Veilchen und Lavendel, um dann in einem feinen, aber leider etwas kurz geratenen Abgang zu münden. Ein leckerer Leisetreter aus Guyana!
Review by Bene37
Der hat viel Holz abbekommen. Eher auf der herben Seite mit schöner Holzwürze, dazu Karamell und ein paar getrocknete Aprikosen. Außerdem hat der in der Nase eine Note, die für mich schwer fest zu machen ist, die mir aber super gut gefällt. Lecker Stöffche. 86/100 oder 6/10
Review by TheJackDrop
"À part l’alcool un poil présent et le piquant intriguant, c’est un sans faute, pur enmore à l’ancienne ! En resume, mes notes de degutation : Au nez : Caramel, Boisé, Vanillé, Chocolat, Raisins sec, Vernis, Mentholé En bouche : Pimenté, Poivre noir, Tabac, Vanillé, Boisé, Caramel, Chocolat La finale plutot orientee vers : Chocolat noir, Mentholé, Pimenté, Caramel"
Review by Vincent D
An old Enmore with a very woody and rich nose. Dried fruits, caramel. Warm and inviting profile. On the palate, more wood. Also citrus. Spicy and lively. Leather. A very pleasant rum.
Review by Speedflo
Sehr warme Aromen wie Leder, Holz, Vanille, Eosinen in der Nase. Auf der Zumge kommt mir als erstes eine ausgewogene Süsse entgegen gefolgt von ähnlichen Nuancen wie in der Nase. Jedoch folgen im Mund noch Pfefferund Schokolade. Vermutlich verdünnt und gezucker... Schade wärs! Aber alles in allem ein sehr leckerer Enmore
Review by Pavel Spacek
... Enmore - drive destilerka, nyni uz jen funkcni destilacni zarizeni. Patrne jedine drevene destilacni zarizeni na svete, ktere se tesi velke oblibe. Rumy Enmore totiz maji prichut popelu, kuze, tezkeho dreva, coz nadchne zejmena milovniky nakourenych whisky. A pokud tradicnim Guyanskym zpusobem prida vyrobce do rumu trochu melasy, mate v lahvi unikatni velmi vyrazny a tezky rum. Jeden z mych oblibenych.
Review by ilRummista
Un buonissimo Enmore. Si presenta bene sia al naso che al palato. Il finale ha una buona persistenza con note di zucchero bruciato che mi piacciono davvero tanto. Mi pento di non averne comprato una bottiglia quando si trovava a prezzi veramente abbordabili
Review by Alessandro
Un buon Enmore, confrontato con il fratello del 96 devo dire che preferisco questo ultimo. Grandi promesse al naso che però si perdono al gusto. Sicuramente un ottimo prodotto ma della stessa linea il 1996 è sopra,
Review by Christoph
Die Nase ist unerwartet fruchtig im Vergleich zu den holzigen Enmores die ich mit diesem Alter bisher hatte. Im Geschmack weicht die Frucht dann einer gewissen Würzigkeit was sehr interessant wirkt. Von Nase zum Abgang zieht sich eine angenehme Note von Zitrone durch. Der Alkohol ist angenehm. Trotzdem nicht auf dem Niveau anderer Enmores.
Review by Buddudharma
Schöne Nase, am Gaumen aber einer der schwächeren Rums der Serie. Etwas dünn, dabei leicht alkoholisch, mit einem metallischen Unterton. Kein schlechter Rum, aber da gibt es aus Guyana andere Kaliber.
Review by Frank
Schön holzig süß mit einem Hauch Zitrus, leider relativ schnell abflachend.

Gourmand et complexe
Review by Florent Apl
I was very eager to taste that one, having tried the VSG before and having a sample of the PM waiting. So we have an EHP here, from the Enmore Coffey column still. It doesn't come cheap but this is a 22 year old Guyana rum, so in this regard the price make sense. Now to check if the quality of the product follows, I was very disappointed in the El dorado Enmore single still,hope this one will be on another level. The nose is quite closed at first, it needs time to open up. The first 3 main aromas that come to me are wood, caramel and dried fruits. The wood is dark, slightly burned, which combines with the burn caramel notes. Dried fruits are on raisins, dried apricots and dried date, but not as intense as one can have with Port Mourant or Versailles. Also, I don't have the dried plum here. There is a hint of menthol in the back. The first mouth is very unsettling, it opens on herbal and chili notes. Going back to it, I find back my caramel and dried fruits but they are hidden behind this intense chili flavor as well as wood tanins. It's not really sweet, but the alcohol integration is well done, it drinks very easily. It's interesting, but the nose was more pleasant. The final is on the wood, tanins and some brown sugar. It's rather bitter than sweet. Overall it's a good rum, but not an absolute banger. The nose is very nice once opened, but the rum delivers a bitter and spicy mouth were I expected more dried fruits and caramel. I preferred the VSG bottling. For this price, I think you can find better EHP bottlings.
Review by Romain de L
Nose is again a bit disappointing but yet intriguing with red fruits and complexity. Attack is really nice ! Strong and covers the tongue. But complex and plums. Finish is longish. A nice tasting and quality
Review by Michal S
Velmi solidní rum bohatý ve vůni i chuti, který sice nedosahuje na ty nejlepší kousky z řady El Dorado Rare Collection, ale rozhodně má co nabídnout.
Review by Richard Krupa
Understandably a completely different Eldorado than I am used to. A big treat. You can feel the strength, but it's great
Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
Au nez on retrouve les marqueurs de son petit frère le 96, à savoir de la prune, des raisins secs, de la datte … Ce n’est pas du tout agressif au nez avec ses 56.5%, bien du contraire c’est très doux. Le nez est fruité et frais mais légèrement en deca de son petit frère car un peu trop fermé. 1-0 pour le 1996 En bouche, c’est moins fruité que le nez, c’est plus boisé et gras sur le chocolat. On retrouve du caramel qui arrondi le tout. Mais une amertume plutôt dérangeante est présente (du café amer, des tannins …). La finale est moyenne sur le bois et des épices.
Review by Alexander Rasch
Ein sehr schöner Enmore. Sehr Rund und cremig. Tolle Nase. Am Gaumen cremig und schön dunkel. Die Bitter Noten werden nie zu dominant. Alles sehr ausgewogen. Macht Spaß ohne zu fordernd zu werden.
Review by Adrianv
Woody on nose, chocolate and coffee with some bitterness on palate makes this rum great sipper for me, I like it. Good thing is it is still largely available and relatively affordable.
Review by Charlier Gauthier
Longueur sympa, assez puissant mais reste doux
Review by Tintin88
Un très bon Rhum pour moi, un nez très aromatique, un bouche pleine de saveur mais il manque de longueur pour ma part. Je trouve que l'alcool ne se ressent pas trop malgré ses degrés mais il reste très gourmand avec une envie de reprendre une gorgée une fois les saveurs volatilisées. Il lui manque juste un peu de puissance et de longueur pour avoir une meilleur note.
Review by BnBrt
Très bon rhum, il me plaît beaucoup. Nez assez sec. Un peu de fruit jaune. Belle attaque, enveloppant. Un peu d'amandes grillées, du fruit acide, petite prune peu sucré. Belle longueur.
Review by ElReyTristan
Belle couleur pour ce joli Rhum, premier nez caramel sec, Porto vintage, et dans un second temps tabac, boîte à cigare. En bouche c’est sympa et franc de collier, il manque peut être un peu de rondeur ou de gourmandise mais c’est un parti pris. La finale est assez longue sur une pointe d’amertume de café torréfié.
Review by Sebastiaan Linssen
First impression; really a delicious rum. Definitely one of the best rums i tries in this price category. Just tried my first glass, a long lingering pleasant finish. Will see how the bottle develops after having some more glasses over the coming weeks.
Review by Jacques etdom
Superbe nez, du caramel, du chocolat, du raisin avec une pointe de fumée. En bouche, la vanille un peu dark, le chocolat, c est boisé avec une pointe d acidité sur le citron vert. Seul bémol, il aurait pu avoir une plus belle longueur. Un très beau rhum.
Review by Sebastian.W
Lovely nose that brings different kinds of dried fruit along with chocolate, leather, coffee and spices. The taste is less interesting, here I mainly get dried fruit and dark chocolate. The finish is quite dry and brings along some minty notes.
Review by Philip M. 🇧🇪
17/10/2025: tasting @ home with Stijn and Bram.
Review by Martin Rasmussen
The nose is great, the classic enmore notes of dark fruits and oaky goodness. The palate is good, with alle the classic enmore notes, but it does feel a bit flat when compared to the 1996 enmore, and the aftertaste is way too short
