Velier Uitvlugt ULR

Absolute Champions League from Guyana. Fantastically balanced between sweetness, wood, spice and subtle fruitiness. Excellent!

Another beautiful uitvlugt velier! Intense and very fruity with a nice caramel note! The spices and chocolate act as a garnish and make everything very mouthwatering! Wood integrated perfectly! A very balanced rum indeed and amazing to drink!

One of the best Uitvlugt that I have had the pleasure to taste so far. Light yet complex. Heavenly.

A wonderful tropically matured Demerara. Lots of glue, caramel and coconut on the nose, fat and oily on the palate. A nose that likes to accompany a double corona, intoxicating. It's a real shame that there's nothing more to come. Anyone who has a bottle in their collection can count themselves lucky.

Tasted it yesterday; I'm still smiling blissfully now. 😍 Update 2024-10-01: Today I had the rare opportunity to taste this great rum again (many thanks to ander_s for the great surprise). While I gave the rum an exuberant 94 points at the time, I'm a little more reserved today. These are of course only nuances, but for my taste the rum could taste a little "darker", the REV-Head in me comes through ... Nevertheless, an incredible pleasure - see my opening sentence.

Very sweet and round profile with coconut, molasses, vanilla, pastries, walnuts, wood. Amazing rum 😋

Amazing nose, rum + nuts taste .. Old Velier Demerara rum is the best thing you can taste in the rum world. The rums were aged in the tropics for several years by mistake and nobody refilled the barrel. The Andel tax was 90% or more, which is why the taste is especially full and intense. Even though it is an extra expensive product, I recommend to taste a rum from this series at least once in your life.

Just retasted this one and this time it scored higher, maybe because I had a perfect day for this kind of rum. The nose is intense and fruity with wood, spices, and varnish trailed by chocolate, tobacco and light marzipan. The palate is sweet and sharp at the same time with fruits, spices, tobacco, oak and light licorice and grass. The finish is medium to long and warm with oak, coconut and tea. A few drops of water will release a lot of extra flavours on the palate and finish.

A top representative of the Guyanas!

Let it air a little first. For 'only' 60% ABV, it comes across quite powerfully... then the nose reveals a wonderfully complex aroma of dried fruit (dates), tropical fruit, tobacco / cedar wood, varnish, caramel, milk chocolate. There is also a hint of Ahoy sherbet lemon wafting in the background. A pleasant sweetness on the palate, accompanied by spices, coffee and nutty, roasted notes. Beautifully balanced and a mega long finish. Great Demerara cinema!

WOW outstanding nose Coconut, oak, chocolate, plum, vanilla, licorice, marzipan and slightly fruity madness complex in the nose really strong. On the palate beautiful sweetness floods the mouth mmhh lots of chocolate and coconut slightly reminiscent of a Belize... only much more complex and incredibly round. Some clove and tobacco in the finish. Delicious !!!

Edit: schöner Vertreter aus Guyana. Meiner Meinung auch sehr gut, aber irgendeine Kleinigkeit bzw. Fehlnote hat mich gestört, die ich leider nicht genau benennen kann. Das verbaut ihn leider eine bessere Bewertung. Evtl. liegt es auch am Preis, dass die Erwartungen so hoch angesetzt waren. Für mich eher ein Sammlerstück leider, als ein Rum den man ohne groß Nachzudenken trinken kann. Denn Abgang hätte ich mir auch viel länger Vorgestellt als er dann auch ist. Franconian Tasting Gang goes Tiki Danke Jakob

If rum had a prophet, it would be this rum. A marvelous nose, plunging into the heart of the Demerara terroir with its spicy, caffeinated and chocolate notes, tropical fruits and sweet pastry notes following the thread with a hint of glue and varnish, tobacco and floral notes that make this a perfect rum on the olfactory level. On the palate, the dark, spicy, chocolatey profile, the fruit and the incredible depth are like being guided through a poem. Elegant, complex, balanced, infinitely smooth and simply delicious. The finish is endless, with floral notes, spices, almonds, chocolate, tea, caramel, tropical fruit, wood and licorice. The quintessential rum in all its splendor.

What an incredible quality. A full-bodied, intense nose. Spicy, woody and yet fruity. Toasted, lovely sandalwood with some tobacco and leather. Then at the same time dried apricot and dried plum as well as cherry. Strong treacle, malty and vanilla powder. Palate: no less intense and full-bodied. Fine oak and piney sandalwood. Clearly almond, tending slightly towards marzipan. Dark roasted and therefore slightly bitter-salty. Beautifully spicy with nutmeg and clove. Dried, sour currant and light chocolate notes on the finish. Top of the league together with the other Velier

Wow , was für ein Rum. Für mich der bis dato beste Uitvlugt. Ach was sag ich, einer der besten überhaupt. Das ich den mal probieren durfte , vielen Dank …. 🙏
