No idea why, but Uitvlugt really pleases me. Super cool rum. Just as you expect from Uitvlugt. Really good this otherwise lousy rum. Cheers you losers.

Citrus, herbs, wood, molasses. A young Port Mourant with a nice profile, but unfortunately the alcohol is not perfectly integrated - a little too young.

8.5/10

I finally had opportunity to try rum from Uitvlugt, and another from RS. To be honest color could be little bit more captivating. In aroma I noticed lot of fruits, raisin and spice and what little bit of that technical scents. I let it rest for a while and I found very weak sweet vanilla scent. In taste this rum reminded me rums from Trinidad with lot od technical flavors, spices. Texture is very oily and again spicy. But almost at the end I felt chocolate flavor, which again I absolutely love in rums. Finish is pretty long, warm with technical flavors. I am not disappointed at all. I really do not kniw how much this bottle cost but it is very decent, good rum that I will recomended to try anyday.

Distillery

Uitvlugt 

Avg Rating 8.5/10 over 170 Rums

Uitvlugt is a ghost with the best reviews in Guyana. The distillery closed in December 1999 and its stills were hauled to Diamond, leaving the stillhouse in ruins, yet aged Uitvlugt rum is among the highest rated on RumX, with one Cadenhead 1964 reaching 9.9/10. For four decades this was the transfer point where every wooden still in the country waited before moving on.
