How does this rum taste?
This Uitvlugt 1998 Demerara, aged 26 years and bottled by Silver Seal, strikes RumX drinkers as pleasantly balanced and easy to sip, with recurring notes of fruity dried fruit, roasted woody spice, and touches of anise and citrus. Many pick up on the “Pfirsich und Aprikosen Aromen” (crazyforgoodbooze), as well as “oily, fresh” texture and a medium-dry, spiced finish—Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰 summed it up as “everything you’d expect from a Demerara.” While the integration of wood is surprisingly restrained for its age, some users wish for a bit more complexity or depth.

#4931 Whisky Live in Paris 27.09.2024-30.09.2024. Another great event meeting a lot of RumX new and old friends. This year three weren't as many new releases as in 2023, but I still had a great time.

Un Uitvlugt plutôt agréable et qui ne se prend pas la tête. Le nez est agréablement fruité avec de la poire, de la pêche, des fruits secs et des agrumes. Le bois n’est pas hyper prégnant, laissant davantage place aux épices (anis, vanille), aux notes pâtissières et toastées. L’ensemble est doux et équilibré. La structure du nez se retrouve en bouche avec les fruits secs, les agrumes, le tabac, le boisé rôti, les épices et le caramel pâtissier. Le rhum a une texture huileuse en bouche mais laisse un sillage plutôt sec en arrière-plan. Le profil n’est pas désagréable, mais il manque un peu de richesse et de complexité à l’ensemble. L’alcool est très bien intégré. La finale est moyennement longue. Le profil de Demerara ressort un peu plus avec le sucre, les épices, les notes rôties et les fruits secs sur le pruneau. L’arrière-bouche reste sèche mais parfumée. Un rhum plaisant à siroter et facile d’approche, mais un peu limité par rapport aux attentes sur un vieux Uitvlugt du siècle dernier.
