Uitvlugt 1974 - 2004, a 30-year-old pot still Demerara rum, is a prestigious offering bottled by Cadenhead's. Distilled at the renowned Uitvlugt Distillery in Guyana, this rare gem was laid down in 1974 and matured for three decades before being bottled in 2004 at a formidable cask strength of 61.5% ABV. This lavish rum has not been chill-filtered nor does it contain any added color, preserving its authentic essence. Housed in an elegant 700ml presentation box, this limited edition embodies the timeless craft of both Uitvlugt Distillery and Cadenhead's, a brand steeped in history since its establishment by George Duncan in 1842. With its lineage tracing back to William Cadenhead and later his nephew Robert Duthie, the brand has upheld a legacy of excellence in the spirits industry.
This rum is unique due to its age, being matured for 30 years, and its high cask strength of 61.5% ABV. Additionally, it has been neither chill-filtered nor colored, making it an authentically pure expression from the Uitvlugt Distillery.
This rum offers a complex and intense profile with notes of barrel, molasses, prunes, licorice, chocolate, nutty undertones, and rich spices.
While the alcohol integration is less gallant compared to other outstanding representatives of its era, it still provides a quintessential Demerara profile with a slight imbalance that does not detract significantly from its overall appeal.
Cadenhead's 1974 Cask Strength GM 30yo is an exceptional rum that harkens back to the golden era of Demeraras. Its deep, oily, and fruity character, combined with the robust 61.5% ABV, delivers an unforgettable tasting experience. Though the alcohol integration could be more polished, it still encapsulates the essence of vintage Guyanese rums, making it a must-try for any aficionado.
