Pour it neat and give it a minute — this is a sipper, not a mixer. Continentally aged Uitvlugt in the classic mold: herbal and minty up front, licorice and anise, bitter lemon peel, black pepper and clove, with a metallic copper note running through the nose. Light in color, oily on the palate. A few tasters find it a touch soapy and rough, but most call it a very good, honest cask-strength Guyanese.
The community says- Herbal licorice notes
- Long oily body
- Keep in mind: Slightly soapy

A classic, solid Uitvlugt… Nose: Classic Uitvlugt notes with an overwhelming, strange copper note Mouth: Classic notes, starting with some notes similar to fruit schnapps, bitter notes, licorice, black teas Finish: Middle long, bitter, warm, anise, licorice, herbal, minty, barrel notes, oak!

I've had the sample for so long and am only now getting around to it... Nose: quite typical of Uitvlugt, spicy-roasty, slightly burnt with lots of lemon. Sweet-tropical with passion fruit and delicately spicy with cardamom. Green banana and metallic copper on the finish. Delicate and rather subtle on the nose, the age of 20 years is not yet noticeable. 8,2 Palate: powerful and burnt-spicy. Immediately an intense taste of soap in the mouth. Bitter lemon peel also goes well with this. Slightly salty and peppery with plenty of clove. You don't notice the age here, as it is hardly woody. Overall a little flat and too soapy for me. 7.6

I got a chance to taste this one right at the source, right at the nice little ,,coffee,, shop in Prague, whose owner is one of a guy who bottles these rums. Extraordinary for me. Minty, soft sweet. Nice rum.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
09.07.2021 Attended a nice tasting arranged by a friend of mine. Notes Light in colour. Nose Fresh, light wood, plum, light caramel, light vegetal, faint medicinal. Palate Oily, light wood, faint roasted, prunes, light chocolate, herbs, spice, faint salty. Finish Medium long, wood, light chocolate, faint roasted, light mint, prunes.
Review by Roman Lelek
It smells similar to Jamaica but the taste is different, I remembered Nectar of daily Dreams and it's Guyana. Some of the flavours are similar - a bit of medicine in there I feel...Very good rum - even my wife has tasted it twice.
Review by Pavel Ungr, RumRock
Vintage 1999. I rate it 8.2 out of 10, very good rum.
Review by Jakob
A bit too rough on the palate, very smoky. The rest is a lot of classic continental aged Port Mourant profile, unfortunately overall a good a piece away from the top representatives of continental aged Uitvlugts.

Review by Johannes
Somewhat atypical for a Port Morant. Too many herbal notes for me.
Review by Happy Oner
Classic continental PM profile, slightly stinging, a bit scattered.
