Elegant, subtle Demerara charmer For curious explorers moving into older Demeraras, this 22-year Uitvlugt is an elegant, moderately intense sipper. Expect anise, olive, floral notes, yellow fruit, tea, mocha and woody spice. Best neat after resting.
Fans of classic Demerara and PM still rums who enjoy subtle complexity: aniseed, olive, floral notes and well-aged wood rather than in-your-face funk or sweetness.
Beginners or those wanting bold, sweet flavours; the subtle, slightly bitter, tea-like wood and anise notes and 51.4% ABV may feel demanding.

Review by Kovalyoff
Nose: green canned olives, complex ethereal compounds that are not associated with anything - just something inedible, like rusty iron and the warm waste of machine oil at a car change. The alcohol is not sensed at all. Interesting. Taste: very strongly salty, brine and capers confirm (but we are closer to barrel pickles), eucalyptus oil and mint create a pleasant coldness. The finish is long, salty, like sweat). I liked it. I don't think this bottle has investment appeal, but purely rolling this is a very yearly rum (for my taste). The overall impression is 90 for sure. Bottles are still available, but already at €186 in Belgium.
Review by mto75
great PM profile, reminds me somewhat of the Rum Cask 97/23y with the wonderful olive note. On the nose beyond that also anise, caramel, yellow fruit, green tea. On the palate, allspice, mocha, candied. In the finish black tea and passion fruit. Really tasty!
Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
Pretty classic aniseed flavours overall. Typical PM stills. This is an elegant rum. Light yellow fruits leaning toward overripe (Peaches. Kiwi. Pear) but not right there. A candied sweetness - like the sugarcoating of the oriental snack: sugared chickpeas. The beauty lies in its subtleness. Very flowery/floral: rose(water), violins, chamomille (including the dryness and mustiness). I like it a lot.
Review by Thunderbird
A very good Uitvlugt, full of character and quite complex! He comes in nose rather fruity (papaya, heavy old yellow fruit )hence! The palate is initially sweet but quickly changes to a spicy woody, then toasted mocha-like note! Overall very smooth and elegant! The finish is woody and then quite bitter..later joins some dried fruit!
