CoR Uitvlugt Guyana 1999
Not the caramel bomb the "Guyana" label might suggest — this Uitvlugt PM-still runs dry and herbal, all black tea, licorice, bitter herbs and roasted oak, with only a little fruit (mirabelle, raisin, citrus peel) peeking through. A few tasters even catch a faint peated, rubbery edge. Reviewers say give it time in the glass; it opens up into a filling, well-balanced whole. Distinctly continental in style.

How does CoR Uitvlugt Guyana 1999 taste?
Aggregated from 29 community reviews.
Dry, herbal Uitvlugt with licorice and oak Most find it complex and well-balanced, if firmly herbal and dry — salt licorice, tea, oak. A couple find the bitter, faintly peaty side a bit much. You need to like the PM style.

Continental PM that knows how to convince. Nose beautifully sweet and fruity with aniseed, salt, licorice, raisin, citrus peel and tea. Then up another gear on the palate. Quite balanced with salt, fruit, herbs, licorice and wood in a pleasant balance.

Bin ein wenig hin und her gerissen, wie ich diesen letztendlich einordnen soll. Im Grunde hat er mir ganz gut geschmeckt. Das einzige was ich ein wenig gestört hat, war etwas torfiges am Gaumen, dass mir nicht so gut gefallen hat.
Review by Thunderbird
A classic Uitvlugt, albeit not very concise. The nose is the most pleasant part for me... the alcohol is well integrated on the palate, the rum spreads softly and easily. But then there are too many spices and herbs for me. It picks up a little on the finish, with minimal dried fruit appearing very late on
Review by Jakob
Wow, here is really something going on in the glass. Already the nose shows intense aromatics with well recognizable proximity to the PM style; but this is not yet a comparison to the palate, where we encounter a broad bouquet with lots of salt liquorice, herbs, wood aromas, anise, black pepper, a subtle interplay of both fresh and dried fruits (citrus, raisin) as well as some metallic warmth. This is already very impressive in its aromatic breadth, although it must be clearly said here again that one should definitely be partial to the continental PM style. But then this bottling definitely represents a positive outlier. Chapeau!

16.05.2023 Normally I don't do tastings during the week because I have to go to work pretty early the next day. This blind tasting just stating "Colours of Rum" just tickled my brain to say "book and participate" and I didn't regret it. It wasn't only a great experience, but we had a blast of an evening with many new faces around the table. Also a very nice release where I think the price tag is pretty good. Well balanced profile with light fruit and nice roasted wood notes. There is a very faint peated note in the profile. The palate is warm and lightly oily with a herbal touch. The finish is long and spicy with nice roasted wood and light notes of dried fruit. Draws really nice curtains in the glass.
Review by Manuel
Sehr interessanter Uitvlugt Rum aus Guyana. In der Nase hat man neben den würzigen Einflüssen auch etwas Süßes. Im Geschmack und Abgang bleibt von der Süße fast nichts mehr übrig. Eher trockener Rum mit pflanzlichen Noten.
Review by Galli33
A classic, solid Uitvlugt… But for me clearly better than the 1991 from Rum Shark! Nose: Classic Uitvlugt notes, this one has more fruits (mirabelle plum, raisins, yellow fruits) Mouth: Classic notes, starting with some notes similar to fruit schnapps, bitter herbal notes, licorice, black tea, olive Finish: Middle long, bitter, warm, anise, licorice, herbal, minty, barrel notes, oak!
Review by Boletus
Ein sehr schöner PM, dessen Duft neben der dauerpräsenten Honig-Lakritze-Mischung mit Kräuterfrische und dem dezent angedeuteten gummierten Aroma eines frisch ausgepackten Fahrradschlauchs aufwartet. Im Mund entwickeln sich dann noch eine angenehme tropische Fruchtigkeit und eine feine Röstnote. Ausgesprochen lecker!
Review by Michael Ihmels 🇩🇪
Sehr interessanter Uitvlugt aus dem südamerikanischen Guyana. In der Nase sind für mich die Gewürze klar zu erkennen welcher aber im Geschmack gepaart ist mit fruchtigen Nuancen. Sehr spannendes Projekt und sehr lecker
Review by Fuwi
Sehr schöner Guyana, der trotz relativ geringer ABV einiges an Spaß mitbringt! Sehr spannend fand ich die Nase, wie sich einige eigentlich gegensätzliche Aromen gegenseitig ergänzt haben - Frucht und herbe Kräuter, Süße mit bitteren Noten von schwarzem Tee und Bergamotte, hinten raus Lakritz und blumige, florale Noten. Bestätigt sich so auch am Gaumen, sehr füllender Charakter, der Zeit braucht. Aus Interesse mal 6h Zeit im Glas gegeben - mega gut.
Review by Gil Firth
בקבוק נהדר מבחינתי. רום כמו שצריך להיות. גויאנה מכה בעשירית! גם פירות. גם שוקולד. גם אסטרים. גם עשבוניות קלה. יש הכל מהכל. רום מורכב וטעים ביותר.
Review by Buzz Stark
