Enmore 1991, Guyana Collection Foundations LMDW
Founded in the early 19th century in the village of the same name, Enmore closed its doors in 1995. Distilled in the wooden double-column Coffey still that this legendary distillery was equipped with, this version was selected by La Maison du Whisky from The Colours of Rum. Both complex and deep, its aromatic and flavor palette offers a delightful blend of youthful and mature expression. At times reminiscent of a Grand-Bas-Armagnac from the Landes region with its wild, earthy flavors, it sensitively captures the full power of the terroir from which it was born.

Tasting Notes:
Nose : Rich, full-bodied. Extremely deep, the aromatic palette reveals delightful scents of sandalwood, dried fig, walnut, incense, prune, and truffle. Upon aeration, it evolves toward more empyreumatic tones (gasoline, bitumen) and roasted notes (coffee, red tea).
Appearance : Acajou
Palate : Lively, dynamic. Continuing the herbal (tobacco) notes from the nose, the flavor profile is built on a wonderful root bitterness (gentian) and vegetal notes (sugarcane). Flavors of walnut husk, curry, and dried coriander gradually bring a great deal of freshness.
Overall : Long, velvety. Orange zest, grated ginger, gentian liqueur, musk, 100% dark chocolate, thyme infusion, and very ripe bananas—all these radiant, mature flavors contribute to a voluptuous and insatiable finish. Similar to the apricot and licorice notes in the retro-olfaction.
