Uitvlugt Rum Artesanal Guyana Rum PM 1989
Black tea, leather and old soft wood, with pencil shavings, herbs (eukalyptus keeps coming up) and a quiet caramel sweetness underneath. This is a mature, rounded Port Mourant from 1989 — everything's polished smooth, the alcohol barely shows at 50%. Give it 30+ minutes to open. The common note: harmony over fireworks, so don't expect bright fresh fruit.

- Alcohol well integrated
- Keep in mind: Reads slightly thin

How does Uitvlugt Rum Artesanal Guyana Rum PM 1989 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Mature, herbal PM that trades power for balance A calm, balanced continental PM most tasters rate highly — tea, tobacco, herbs, well-hidden alcohol. The recurring gripe: at 50% it reads a touch thin and tame, missing the deeper punch.

Review by Mirko Frosini 🇮🇪
Most helpful positive review
Excellent rum! All elements are in perfect balance, none overpowering the other. On the nose the caramel throws off thinking you will find a sweet flavor, instead the rum comes out slightly bitter and dry. Later in the mouth, toasty, woody, spicy and grape notes are noticeable. The caramel gone, perhaps cocoa or chocolate. The finish is medium long with the persistence of the grape and after that more tobacco, but still all very soft.A rum that given the distillery and aging I would have expected something more!

On the nose, we don't find the beautiful glue that can displease some people but that I love! There is woody, tropical fruits and spices. We have licorice, vegetal notes of eucalyptus ... the nose is rather conventional for a PM, but it is rather attractive because fruity. In the mouth, it is complex, much more complex than the nose. We have licorice, solvents, woody, red fruits, citrus, almond, vanilla ... but unfortunately, there are very bitter notes that disturb and disturb (very bitter dark chocolate, tannins, ...).
Review by Mirco
Very nice Uitvlugt with ripe, deep aromas. Dark fruit, tobacco and a fine spiciness on the nose, with an elegant woody note. Complex on the palate with chocolate, dried fruit and a pleasant herbaceousness that adds depth to the profile. The finish is long, warm and harmonious. For me, a really good representative of the 1989 vintage.
Review by Galli33
Some notes of tobacco, herbal, earthy, sugar, dried fruits, leather with some overwhelming lovely smell of wood (oak) in the nose. On the palate it’s very balanced and bitte with some classic guyana notes (black tea, wood, tobacco, leather…) The finish is medium long with notes of caramel, tobacco, roasted, leather and oak for sure. Very good balanced guyana rum! Very pleasant to drink and alcohol is integrated very well.
Review by Lukas Jäger
First of all, this one needs time! Woody, herbal (eucalyptus!) and complex. On the nose, floral-sweet notes reminiscent of violets. A little pencil and herbal candy on the palate. Lingers in the mouth for a long time.Despite cask strength only 50% and thus very quaffable, could almost pass for an easy sipper. Nevertheless, very complex and multilayered, a great Demerara! If you give this rum the time it needs, an incredible bomb!
Review by Maxence
Port Mourant is not my favourite rum from Demerara and this one is not bad at all. I still rather prefer darker PM profiles.
Review by Tschusikowsky
If you like Uitvlugt, you'll like this rum. Everything is there, herbs, peat, cocoa, pencil, tea and tobacco, also something floral and nonetheless also tropical fruits. Syrupy despite the low ABV. Dense bouquet. A very tasty rum.
Review by zabo
Very nice bottling from Rum Artesanal. The nose alone already impressed me, the longer it breathes, the more and more beautifully it unfolds. On the palate, it is nicely mild and reveals all its aromas. Very, very tasty and well-balanced.
Review by Frank
The last time tried 2 years ago, now in nice round again. Nose: initially closed, spicy-woody, muted fruity with grape, sour cherry, tr. currant and vlt. some papaya. Some smokiness, damp chewing tobacco and pencil lead. Caramel acidity comes in. Becomes increasingly earthy, resinous, rooty. Herbaceousness comes with thyme but also something mild like cashew or rice flour. Sufficiently complex nose. 8.7 Palate: a bit flat at first but then more depth and out the back thoughtfully woody and old. Old newsprint and oily pencil lead. Got some plum but also chestnut, cashew and sesame. 8.9 Tobacco on the finish...
Review by Jakob
A very good representative of the continental PMs, albeit not a high-flyer of the vintage. Wood, herbs, tea, hints of rubber - the 1989 Uitvlugts/PMs retain a recognizable profile, but for me, even in top form, they cannot match the spearhead of the Demerara aroma world.
Review by Leo Krüper
Well, that's rather something. Top shelf once again at RA Guyanas. Great rum that has everything you could wish for.
Review by Johannes
Great PM! A little more herbaceous than the SS!
Review by Oliver
Complex and drinkable at the same time. Very nice 1989!
Review by Felix Reiber
After an appropriate waiting time in the glass (approx. 30-50 min.), you notice the full aromatic splendor and complexity on the nose. From woody spice to herbs, fruit and caramel, everything is there and also very balanced. On the palate, caramel, herbs, tannins and an interesting spiciness reminiscent of Caroni. Fruit, herbs and tea notes resonate and create a first-class balance of the complex and varied aromas. The finish is long, with a pleasant woodiness that alternates with spices and herbs. A subtle bitterness is perceptible and supports the tones of black tea and leather. A great vintage with successful, well-developed maturation. You don't drink something like this every day.
Review by Serge
Delicious. Really one of the better PMs from the 90s onwards. On the nose a great mix of fruit (grape and dried fruit), wood, herbs, vanilla and tobacco with great sweetness. On the palate with more wood in the mix as well as some licorice, tea, plum and a pleasant bitterness. A roasty, bitter finish with strong espresso, smoke, leather and tea.
Review by DomM
Elegant nose dominated by herbs and spices. Very clear PM profile. Darker and woody notes dominat on the palate without being overwhelming (or „overaged“). Elegant and complex.
Review by LukaŽiga
9,2:On the nose, the first impression we get is a very complex rum with woody and vegetal notes like notes from roasted wood as burnt sugar, leather, caramel, smoky and roasted nuts, especially hazelnut.A molasses brings vegetal notes like tobacco, herbs and earthy flowery touch.There are dried fruits like raisins, apricots, fresh grapes, citrus. On aeration, some metallic notes arise, toffee, spices with vanilla make their mark, tropical fruits like coconut and banana and from vegetal notes, hay. Very round and balanced. 8,7:On the palate, the attack is creamy with roasted, spicy wood notes like caramel, cocoa, vanilla, pepper, burnt sugar and nuts, later with resin, as the molasses is vegetal, earthy with tobacco, black tea, dark licorice.The fruits are dried and tropical with apricots, raisins, banana. Very quickly tannins arise, but not so pleasant, as they disbalance our pleasant tasting.With resting, everything comes in right creamy order, balance, as we notice lemon, red fruits and peaches from fruits and herbal, flowery notes, red bell peppers and hay. 8,7:The finish is long spicy, dry and roasted wood, tannins, the resin is a bit bitter. We notice some yoghurt note, as we could talk of earthy and smoky touch. The fruits from the palate are repeated..
Review by lukasdrinkinghabits
Heute zwei 1989er PMs im Glas. Den 31jährigen RA von 2021 und den 31jährigen Distilia im Crosstasting. Wenn es eine prototypische Nase von kontinentalen PMs gibt, dann ist es vielleicht dieser RA: Anis, Kräuter, Apfel, Holz, zarte Vanille. Etwas verschlossen, aber doch eine fantastische Balance. Ein Apfelkuchen mit einem Hauch Zimt. Aber auch Zitronenabrieb, Grapefruit, die gelbe Fruchtigkeit einer Birne. Wirklich sehr schön. Der Distilia ist sehr ähnlich. Eine Spur dunkler mit deutlicher Bitterkeit und einer Politurnote, die ich RA nicht so prominent wahrgenommen habe. Der Mund ist wie die Nase: Zurückhaltend, aber von fantastischer Balance. Der Mund ist sehr fruchtig, aber auf eine sehr, sehr reife und mürbe Art. Ist das seh. Reifer Apfel oder schon Holz? Das Aroma ist ähnlich wie bei den alten gefärbten Demeraras, aber mit gelben statt roten Früchten. Daneben Schwarztee, Leder. Das ist die perfekte kontinentale Reife, die nach 31 Jahren das Holz nicht vollständig übernehmen lässt. Der Abgang bleibt etwas hinter den Erwartungen zurück. Der Rum bleibt sehr rund und selbst der Abgang bringt kaum Bitterkeit. Der mürbe Apfel mit altem, weichen Holz bleibt noch lange im Mund, er bringt aber auch keine neuen Facetten mit. Dieser Rum ist pure Harmonie. Das ist die Stärke und die Schwäche. Gegenüber dem Karaya könnte man diesen vielleicht als etwas alterschwach beschreiben. Expressive, frische Frucht findet man hier nicht. Hier ist alles alt und reif, alle Ecken sind abgeschliffen. Die etwas verschlossene Nase und der Mangel an Abwechslung verhindern eine höhere Wertung.
Review by Dominik Marwede
This is one of the best rums RA has ever bottled and I think it's mega that you can get it at Rumauctioneer partly below EK. 89 and 90 are the only two vintages that still have the oldschool charm at Guyana. I love this stuff
Review by Stylo
Wonderful expression selected by Rum Artesanal. The nose is really light, with floral and burnt sugar notes, along with some dark fruits (grapes and cherries) and leather. The palate, for me, is waaaay more complex, adding oranges, licorice roots and this refreshing black tea flavor.
Review by Basti
The nose is very heavy and spicy. Caramel, malt, leather, pencil shavings, grape, dried fruit, wood and roasted aromas. Spicy and round on the palate. The finish is very long. ABV is perfectly integrated. Nice PM, although I'm not really a PM fan!
Review by mto75
on the nose very nice balance between fruity-herbal, caramel and woody notes, very round! The palate is dominated by wood, tobacco, tannins and metallic notes. In the finish rather dry, and - just before everything fades - a note that reminds me of mango...I really like overall!
Review by Pavel Spacek
This is great Uitvlugt profile rum. But it taste like there is 80% of water inside
Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
In crosstasting with RX3567 and RX12822 the weakest rum.Nose: sweetish, pleasant pencilPalate: as in the nose, a little drier, but unfortunately too thin overall, a few percent more would have certainly done him good
Review by Thunderbird
An overall very soft mild rum, which also allows larger sips! Ideal for relaxed evening hours! Yesterday a second time tasted:He seems to me this time a little more complex!
Review by Michael Schillheim
It wasn't love at first sight, but the longer the rum stays in the glass, the more I like it a bit. That, although I generally don't quite warm up to Guyana. Only the low alcohol content I can criticize. A few percent would have done Uitvlugt good.
Review by FischeJ
Great PM. I really like it. Beautifully balanced. Wood, tobacco, leather, herbs. Nicely roasted, with a subtle sweetness of caramel. Powerful and full in the mouth. More coffee or dark chocolate on the finish.
Review by Carlitooo
In the nose very spicy, light juniper note, on the palate then PM comes through with a nice increase until the finish
Review by Martin Augustin
A very palatable rum that nevertheless has a beautiful complexity.
Review by Nils123
A real palate pleaser. Not at all bone dry, but nicely balanced with herbs, tobacco, and black tea. The alcohol is perfectly integrated, without being noticeable, which makes it dangerously easy to drink.
Review by Tom Buteneers
Mainly spicy and lots of wood, tobacco lags behind. The nose is promising, but the taste cannot quite live up to expectations.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Pencil, violet, eucalyptus and burnt wood, as well as leather and currant on the nose. after some time comes dark, almost burnt caramel to it and some cocoa.in the taste then really dark caramel just before burning with a lot of bitterness as with >90% cocoa chocolate, plus a lot of roasting, tannins from the wood some maple syrup, vanilla pulp, pecans and orange peel and in the finish it goes more and more towards tree resin and leather saddle. exciting and rounder than many other Uitvlugts in my opinion, but for me personally a bit too woody and astringent.
Review by Christoph
Beats the 1993 Uitvlugt of RA by clearly noticeable stronger spice, wood and tobacco notes. One notices here the somewhat longer maturation.
Review by lars
This is actually not my thing at all. So I lack a good comparison. But I really like the nose, nicely leathery/earthy yet still very pleasant. On the palate then slightly too sweet, but that doesn’t spoil the overall impression much.
Review by Mentalo
Bitterness and woody notes still within limits. But also a slight sweetness, some fruit, herbs and black tea. Alcohol perfectly integrated. I find it much better balanced than the 1989 from Colours of Rum.
Review by Djehey
An aged rum and you can tell. The nose is a bit fresher thanks to herbal and even floral notes. The palate is dark and woody with a bit of indulgence (almond paste) and a fleeting plum. The black tea is present from attack to finish and turns into smoked coffee on the finish. A beautiful rum but not my preference.
Review by GlenPiWi 🇧🇪
The nose didn’t do much for me. Taste is creamy, woody, dry, mizunara wood, bitter, eucalyptus, a bit of fruity sweetness…. Too woody on the one hand, but still balanced, complex and good on the other hand.
Review by Laurent Lamour
Good, but nothing more...
Review by TheRhumhoe
A good Uitvlugt / Port Mourant that focuses on delicacy and refinement. The nose is fine and harmonious. The spices show up at the start (licorice, chili, vanilla) along with wood and leather. Then come more herbal notes (tea), earthy (tobacco), followed by fresher and floral ones. The fruits develop with aeration, especially raisin and apricot. A slight metallic touch appears in the background. A round and complex nose, with strong aromas but a nice indulgence. The palate is elegant, complete, and shows a nice roundness, contrasting with the tougher aromas of Port Mourant. The combination of spices, wood, tobacco, and aromatic herbs is very harmonious. Leather, tea, and licorice stand out well despite the profile’s acknowledged bitterness. Dried fruits add a bit of voluptuousness in the mouth, contrasting with metallic notes that resurface. You feel a more sensual and complex rum on the palate. The alcohol is very well integrated. The finish is medium-long, still on that damp wood, herbal, earthy side, and that softening roundness. Smokier aromas appear alongside bitterness, leather, spices, and tea. A sweetness on caramel contrasts with the tannins. It’s a successful profile for a Port Mourant, perfectly in style and at the same time very approachable with its finesse.
Review by Wernie
Interesting drop, even if it doesn't quite hit my taste. Maybe a few years too old.😉 I find it very metallic, both on the nose and on the palate. Hardly any fruity aromas, lots of wood and spice that goes too much into bitterness. But I'm glad I could try it.😊
Review by Nicolas MARCHANDIN
The rum is very well done. No false notes. It just lacks a little extravagance to suit my tastes at the moment.
Review by thehumblefox
NOSE: Caramel. Dusty dried fruits, church attic, rasin syrup, pomegranate molasses, fig newtons. PALATE: Plums in anise & clove syrup. Ricola drops. Medicated. There’s a juiciness here that I enjoy. Licorice, plum pie. FINISH: Oatmeal raisin cookies, minty milk chocolate. Bitter toasted oak and dark sugars. Pipe tobacco. Somewhat cooling, with a return of that numbing clove sensation after several minutes. OVERALL: This needed time to open up. But when it did, that mix of concentrated fruit sugars and medicinal herbs was quite nice. Overall, I think it suffers a bit from the low proof. But very high quality rum. SCORE: 84/100
Review by Caroni.Martin
Nice eulalyptus note - one of my first Uitvlugt - brown sugar and lots of wood out the back - very complex - good thing
Review by Hrothgar
Great nose with very own fruitiness, complex on the palate but with a softness that is perhaps a bit too tame.
Review by Martin Švojgr
A very complex rum from Artesanal. It is beautifully felt the age and integrity of the alcohol.
Review by Joël
Interesting, but somehow I can't warm to PM.

Still a nice Port Mourant and a superb 1989. Very full tobacco and leather notes, some herbs but not über herbal. Perfect alcohol integration this was taken out of a cask at its peak. A very nice rum in sum
Expert review by Zucker und Zeste
Typical Port Mourant. A very round easy sipper. Very mature it still lacks a little depth
