Duncan Taylor Uitvlugt (Port Mourant) Single Cask Rum 1989

Dry wood, licorice and anise lead here, with plum, leather and a faint tar underneath — the classic Port Mourant pot-still signature at 23 years. It pours viscous and oily, and the 54.9% sits well-integrated rather than hot. One taster nailed it: Guyana on the nose, an old low-ester Jamaican in the mouth. A slow, spice-heavy sipper that keeps opening up.

Dry, oily Port Mourant with licorice and plum Widely rated among the best of the 1989 Uitvlugts — deep, complex, and firmly aniseed-and-wood driven. A serious neat pour, not one for a quick drink.

Very round, balanced profile - a pleasant blend of tropical fruits, wood, spices and a little caramel sweetness. For me, this is one of the best representatives of the 1989 Uitvlugts.

Sports car festival Velden 29.05. Super color, very viscous and oily. Becomes more and more complex. Dry wood, spicy, dried fruit, hay, flowers. Perfectly melted. Woodier and fruitier in the mouth. Super rum. Tasted blind, I would have placed the nose in Guyana, then an old low-ester Jamaican in the mouth.

Spousta, spousta chutě i vůně. Nos plný těžkých, port mourant vúní, kůže, dřeva a koření. Chuť je plná, dlouhotrvající prvotní náznaky ovoce ustupují těžký tónům anýzu a lékořice. Další krásný kousek z dílny duncan tayloru.

Guyana 

Avg Rating 8.4/10 over 1,600 Rums

Guyana is the last home of the wooden still, and the only rum country where the place on the label is almost never the place the rum was made. Its rum, called Demerara after the river, went from 109 distilleries to one, and the estates that closed live on as marks: codes for a recipe, not for a machine. Reading them is the whole skill.

` between two key/value pairs terminates the expression and Hugo fails the whole build with `unexpected "{" in operand`. Put notes here. `headerDeliveryCountry` feeds the aria-label of the destination picker under the express row (commerce/express-destination.js).
