Most tasters land on "a solid older continental Uitvlugt" — herbal to the core, with walnut, pencil shavings and dried fruit in the nose. The surprise is the palate: an oily, almost honey-like sweetness that runs through the middle, then young oak and tannins that turn bitter on a long finish. Several loved that; a few found the sweetness too much and the bitter close divisive.
The community says- Deep herbal core
- Walnut & pencil nose
- Keep in mind: Late bitter close

What a great nose! Lots of walnut, herbs and barrel, fruits only in the background. On the palate very intense and powerful, less walnut, more floral and the barrel with its tannins is noticeable. The alcohol is well integrated. Towards the long finish the tannins begin to dominate. Very good, intense rum!

For the fact that I rarely like continental matured Guyana rums, especially uitvluigt is often not my cup of tea, this one is surprisingly good. The only thing that irritates me is the very present sweetness, which is almost reminiscent of honey in terms of viscosity. It also has slight tendencies of 2000 WIRDs. The alcohol could be a tad better integrated, but this is still a solid older continental Uitvluigt.

#5059 30.11.2024 Tasting at Whisky Watcher tasting in Odense. Nose Medium intense, wood, light herbal, spice, light tobacco, dried fruit, faint chocolate. Palate Oily, medium intense, wood, faint herbal, fruits, raisin, medium spicy, light roasted, light medicinal. Finish Long and warm, wood, light roasted, light anise, light tannins, faint mineral, light medicinal. The empty glass has light citrus, licorice, light chocolate and some pencil shavings.
Review by cigares
German Rum Festival 2025. Very little on the Rum Artesanal stand this year. Yellow fruits, a side of dry herbs and dried fruits dominate the nose. Young woods are well present interacting with the dry herbs. The first mouthfeel is lively, then the aromas drop a bit then stabilize on the finish. The young woods and dry herbs remain very long in the mouth. An interesting and tasty continental maturation rum.
Review by Thunderbird
A classic continental Uitvlugt with well-balanced flavors. A small fly in the ointment is the slightly late, rather bitter finish. But overall it is quite decent, if not outstanding.
Review by Oliver
Lots of walnut and herbs on the nose. On the palate intense with a pleasant sweetness. Great rum!
Review by Michael Schillheim
The last Guyana of the evening. For me, the 97 Uitvlugt is not one of the winners of the evening. On the positive side, the herbal aromas predominate and are accompanied by a slight nuttiness. The palate is surprisingly very sweet. Which I personally don't like so much. I even like it better in the medium-long finish than on the palate right from the start.
Review by Lukas Jäger
Uitvlugt 1997 - a big name that this bottling can't really live up to. As you would expect from continental Uitvlugts, the typical basic herbal character is also found here, complemented by walnut and pencil. The oily sweetness is exciting, reminiscent of honey or maple syrup and surprisingly dominant.
Review by zabo
Mhm, I didn't think it was that bad, I really like those pencil shavings, which I think are there and could be a little more intense. The rest of the aromas also come across well.
Review by Skyfly
A really good rum from Guyana. The dominant notes of this bottling are a mix of pencil shavings, herbs, and walnut. Alongside that, you can smell/taste the classic markers. The alcohol is excellently integrated.
Review by Mentalo
Continental matured 1997 Uitvlugt from Rum Artesanal. The alcohol is well integrated. Nice sweetness, light honey note, lots of herbs. Bitter notes come through in the finish. Overall harmonious, however, if you like the style.
Review by Johannes
Excellent Port Mourant profile! In addition to the typical herbal notes, a nice sweetness. Unfortunately, borderline dominant bitter notes on the finish.
Review by Rum Watcher
Very, very "herbal", typically Continental. I thought it was very good, and the majority of the tasters thought so too. However, I can understand that it's not everyone's cup of tea.
Review by Michael Schou
01-03-2025 Decent Uitvlugt. Missing some fruit in the taste. Mostly dominant by pepper and slight wet oak.
