Distilia Uitvlugt Greenheart MPM 1989
People deep into aged Guyanese pot still are the audience here. Give it time and the nose turns fruity — mango, apricot, raisin, marzipan — before the palate goes darker: dark chocolate, coffee, black tea and plenty of toasted oak. Several tasters note real bitterness and a woody, faintly medicinal finish, and a few feel it's slightly past its peak.
The community says- Fruity, layered nose
- Alcohol well hidden
- Bitter, woody finish

How does Distilia Uitvlugt Greenheart MPM 1989 taste?
Aggregated from 50 community reviews.
Fruity nose, dark woody bitter finish Loved for a surprisingly fruity nose and gentle 47.3% for its age. The catch: palate and finish turn wood-driven and bitter, and some found it a touch one-dimensional.

Review by Johannes
Beautiful nose, palate herbs, wood, complex, does not seem thin at all.
Review by Thunderbird
The second Uitvlugt this evening. And this one is very elegant. A very sweet, fruity and spicy nose. On the palate, a subtle woody spicy nose at first, which later changes to fruity. A very pleasant mango aroma and perfectly integrated alcohol..and a lovely long dark finish. The perfect companion in the evening
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Hard to get your hands on but I was lucky to get a free sample. A very nice and well balanced rum. Woody and fruity with some caramel, chocolate and there is a hint of a medicinal note.
Review by Timo Groeger
Toller Uitvlugt hier. In der Nase sind tropische Früchte zu erkennen, aber auch sehr rostig und etwas Kaffee ist riechbar. Am Gaumen ist er für mich dann überwiegend holzig (Fass), es sind aber auch Kaffee und dunkle Schokolade zu schmecken.
Review by DomM
Most fruits on the nose out of the ’89ers I tasted. Works very well alongside some herbs. Very nice one. Less fruits on the palate leaning towards darker notes. Had the most intense palate today. For now my favorite of the vintage.
Review by zabo
Oh wow, a really great rum. There's really nothing more to say about it. Despite its low ABV, it leaves nothing to be desired and doesn't seem too thin or watered down. The perfect accompaniment to a cigar.
Review by Martin Švojgr
Beautiful dark red colour. On the palate it is a delicate piece full of floral notes, dried sherry fruit. It then moves into chocolate, buttercream, prunes, fudge, and a woodiness of old wood on the finish. A very good rum.
Review by mto75
Beautiful fruity nose, also a certain marzipan sweetness. Allspice, toasted barrel and a great mango note on the palate. The rather low ABV is not at all disturbing here. Significantly better than the younger MPM Marques.

Zum Abschluss für heute dieses Brett. Ein sehr leckerer Rum mit 31 Jahren. in der Nase viele Früchte wie Sauerkirschen zu erkennen. Im Geschmack ebenso Früchte und zudem ein Hauch von Marzipan. Wirklich ein Rum der Spitzenklasse
Review by Banana Joe
Braucht seine Zeit im Glas um sein volles Aroma zu entfalten. Dann wird man mit röstigem Kaffee, einen leichten Amarettonote, Rosinen und tropischen Früchten in der Nase belohnt. Am Gaumen dann dunkle Schokolade, Kaffee und eine angenehme Würze spürbar. Denke er hatte etwas mehr % vertragen können, dann wäre er noch intensiver. Trotzdem eine tolle Abfüllung. Abgang könnte etwas länger sein. 450€, die heutzutage aufgerufen werden finde ich aber persönlich zu viel.
Review by m8375e
slightly boring nose with a lot of pleasant greenness and spiciness on the palate. Not a stunning vintage/cask but very solid
Review by RumTaTa
Like a board! For my taste, the rum has already passed its zenith a while ago. Still very pleasant and interesting on the nose. But in the mouth, and even more so in the finish, it is very challenging to discover anything else besides the wood and roasted aromas. Second tasting: The nose is really very balanced and beguiling! In the mouth it is also more pleasant now, the pressure from the alcohol is perfect, not too much and not too little. But then comes the Brett again, bitter substances, barrel... Too bad, otherwise it would have been 90+.

Read full review →ɴose Sweet mangoes, raisins and marcipan. What?! It actually feels like an old Baraillon Armagnac at the first encounter. The most uncommon PM 89 Nose we've had till date. And the most fruity one. Banana bread, milk chocolade and apricots. Tons of apricots. Splendid! There is also a slight floral side, that strokes your senses with Ylang Ylang and jasmine blossoms. Plus some hints of fine wood oil. Let's feast, shall we? Palate Smooth and gentle, rounded and sweet. No this ain't no lullaby, but a 31 years old rum with 47,3%. The alcohol is almost invisible. We find the sweetness of the apricots and a pleasant bitterness of grapemark. Oh, and there is honey too. But rather an exotic one, than the one's we know from our climes. this rum would be an ideal digestif after a heavy meal.
