CDI Uitvlugt Guyana 1997
Old varnished oak up front, then a surprising fruit turn — overripe banana, mango, a little pineapple, licorice and light tar underneath. This is a softer take on Uitvlugt: the 45% keeps it very drinkable but also thins the body. Several tasters loved the fruit-vs-wood push-pull; others found it light and a touch simple for an 18-year Demerara.

How does CDI Uitvlugt Guyana 1997 taste?
Aggregated from 23 community reviews.
Light, fruity Uitvlugt with woody licorice depth Most find it well-balanced and easy to sip, with a long dry finish. The recurring catch: at 45% it drinks light, and a few call the structure simple.

Review by Zorman 🇩🇰
Very good. When nosing it’s very hard to resist the urge to empty the glass. The 45% make it very drinkable.
Review by N’ours
Pretty well balanced. The low degrees break up the very smoky, alcoholic side often found in this distillery's bdf, bringing out a fruitier profile without losing power and length.
Review by Serge
Etwas dünn aber doch trotzdem unterbewertet wie ich finde. Salzlake, Tee, Vanille und Früchte mit etwas Anis in schöner Balance. Am Gaumen dann etwach leise … wie zu erwarten. Aber der Geschmack ist trotzdem da

Nice Uitvlugt profile,but too weak
Review by alex
I didn't like it. Too light for my taste. Lacks complexity, no length.
