Duncan Taylor Uitvlugt (Port Mourant) Single Cask Rum 1989
Dry wood, licorice and anise lead here, with plum, leather and a faint tar underneath — the classic Port Mourant pot-still signature at 23 years. It pours viscous and oily, and the 54.9% sits well-integrated rather than hot. One taster nailed it: Guyana on the nose, an old low-ester Jamaican in the mouth. A slow, spice-heavy sipper that keeps opening up.

How does Duncan Taylor Uitvlugt (Port Mourant) Single Cask Rum 1989 taste?
Summarized by AI from 14 community reviews.
Dry, oily Port Mourant with licorice and plum Widely rated among the best of the 1989 Uitvlugts — deep, complex, and firmly aniseed-and-wood driven. A serious neat pour, not one for a quick drink.

Review by Jakob
Very round, balanced profile - a pleasant blend of tropical fruits, wood, spices and a little caramel sweetness. For me, this is one of the best representatives of the 1989 Uitvlugts.
Review by Joachim Guger
Sports car festival Velden 29.05. Super color, very viscous and oily. Becomes more and more complex. Dry wood, spicy, dried fruit, hay, flowers. Perfectly melted. Woodier and fruitier in the mouth. Super rum. Tasted blind, I would have placed the nose in Guyana, then an old low-ester Jamaican in the mouth.

Dreamlike Port Mourant! Intense, complex, delicious...
Review by Carlitooo
Somewhat weaker than the other two 1989
Review by Filip Šikula
Loads and loads of flavor and aroma. Nose full of heavy, port mourant scents, leather, wood, and spices. The taste is full, long-lasting; initial hints of fruit give way to heavy tones of anise and licorice. Another beautiful piece from the Duncan Taylor workshop.
