Uitvlugt (pronounced “eye-flut”) is a village in Guyana, based on the west bank of the Demerara River. The Dutch-owned Uitvlugt Distillery was established around 1750, housing double wooden pot stills which produced a characteristically heavy rum. In 1975 the government began consolidating rum production, and this sadly saw the closure of Uitvlugt in 2000.

The Colours of Rum expression of Uitvlugt comes from a 1989 single cask, which yielded 222 bottles. It has spent 20 years in an ex-whisky barrel and was distilled in the renowned Double Wooden Pot Still from Port Mourant, the oldest wooden pot still in the world.

“Nose: deeper and richer. Burnt caramel stands out, followed by sweet pineapple, classic oil paint and old varnish. Petroly caramel. Fresh Granny Smith but also chocolate and tapenade. Hints of tobacco as well.

Mouth: same combination of brighter notes (lemons, green fruits) with caramel, firmly salty liquorice and tarry notes. Strong and definitely more rustic than the 1990. Resins and bitter herbal notes after a while. Then some ground coffee and charred wood. Even a hint of antiseptics. Just flashes of barbecued pineapple in the background.

Finish: long, on tarry notes, liquorice, saline notes and herbal bitters.

Quite a heavy style Uitvlugt, very rich but with a dose of astringency as well. Really good but a kind of ‘hammer’ spirit. It makes me appreciate the well-dosed balance of the 1990 even more.”

Note: - 89 points.”
