26 year old rum from Uitvlugt's Port Mourant still. The distillery has since sadly closed, though indie bottlers like That Boutique-y Rum Company somehow manage to get their hands on rare rums like this for enthusiasts. Also, this one gives you a little guide to saying Uitvlugt on the label. You see the flute, yeah? It's got a pair of eyeglasses somehow attached to it. Eye. Flute. Eye-flute. Uitvlugt.
Batch 1 is a release of 344 bottles.
Rich, pungent mango and pineapple balance beautifully with the clear oak influence. There’s liquorice notes too, and even a hint of coffee in with the vanilla.
Dark chocolate comes through with the pineapple and papaya. The spirit itself is dense and mouth-filling, oozing with toasted banana bread, star anise and even honeysuckle.
Long, lively and deliciously oily.
A fascinating, super-full-bodied rum.

Ok with a mixer but at that price it shouldn't need one. O.V.D. is much better
On the nose: mature port mourant. On the palate: mellow port mourant followed by heavy bitter oak. Blended it with young port mourant to bring it up to scratch.
