El Dorado Enmore Single Still Cask Strength 12 Year Rum

The Enmore still is a genuine artifact of rum history: a wooden continuous Coffey still with interior copper plates, built in 1880 at the Enmore Estate in Guyana, and the last surviving wooden Coffey still operating anywhere in the world. When Enmore closed in 2000, Demerara Distillers moved it to Diamond Estate, where it still runs today producing the EHP marque. This is the cask strength expression — the same 12-year tropical aging in ex-bourbon oak as the standard 40% bottling, but bottled at full strength around 54% (batch dependent), non-chill filtered, natural color, no additives. That extra proof is exactly what reviewers say the rum needs: the standard release draws criticism for being over-diluted, while this one delivers. Expect sweet aromatic wood, caramel, honey, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg on the nose, with peanut brittle, crushed walnut, and a faint savory edge underneath. The palate turns bold and dry — orange, cloves, treacle, chocolate, toffee, pecan, and a distinct charred-oak character reviewers often compare to bourbon — finishing long and lingering. Less funky than the Port Mourant, woodier and more restrained, and a favorite among tasters who find PM too extreme.
