CoR Uitvlugt Guyana Ed. 3 1989 32yr 64,1%

"Venerable old and so full-bodied. Intense and delicious on the nose, totally awesome: spicy, slightly woody yet fruity. A mix of tropical fruits, especially papaya, black currant and cherry. Plus a pleasant freshness with mint, light wood acidity and a touch of vinegar. Sweetness of maple syrup and forest honey as well as toffee and milk chocolate.Palate: wow, what intense complexity. And very tasty. Woody already, but not at all distracting. It starts off tart through this, slightly bitter and immediately has an intense toasty, nutty, chocolaty and mocha-like aromatic texture. Slightly minty and and licorice at the same time. A subtle tobacco note alongside malty, dark and caramel flavors. This nose and the taste curve are already very good for me"

"Aromatically close to the comparable releases of the same Marques from 1989. Age, alcohol content and cask influence are clearly more present here, which is why it needs some oxidation before the distillate unfolds in full bloom. The result is a tart and powerful rash of the already very distinctive PM profile; the tart note has taken on almost too much importance here for my liking, but overall the release undoubtedly represents great quality."

"Strange why this PM89, which unlike the otherPM89 has been stored the longest, has the highest alcohol content! Now, at the second tasting I like it even better! Taste-wise, it has the typical complex Port Mourant notes with borderline bitter/tea notes."

"Great Uitvlugt 89! While some of its brothers are a little weak on the chest, the oldest of them comes with over 64% and therefore plenty of steam. Well integrated, the alcohol then provides what the Artesanal rum, for example, lacks: complexity and, above all, depth and fullness in the mouth. Surprisingly spicy and woody, with nutty aromas and coffee, this Uitvlugt <PM> only fully reveals its DNA towards the end of the palate. All in all, a successful bottling!"

"In crosstasting with RX7791 and RX3567 the most surprising rum - a wolf in sheep's clothing.Nose: weak, barely perceptible, disappointing in direct comparison to the other two tasted rumsPalate: Wow! A stunner! What the nose lacks in depth, the palate more than makes up for, which is why the rum is even the test winner today. . The high alcohol content and the relatively long tropical maturation are clearly noticeable in a positive way.a wonderfully oily rum with bite (on the palate)."

"Have tasted him now three times and each time he has clearly lost for me gg. the RA bottling. Bitterness, wood notes and black tea cover almost everything. For me, unfortunately, too much of it."
