Cadenhead's 1999 Cask Strength MPM Uitvlught 18yo 58.7% 700ml is a distinguished rum, meticulously crafted at the renowned Uitvlugt Distillery in Guyana.

With an impressive age statement of 18 years and an ABV of 58.7%, this vintage rum promises a robust and richly complex drinking experience. The Uitvlugt Distillery, known for its exceptional rums before its closure, has bestowed upon this bottling a unique character that is both full-bodied and intricate. The aroma reveals a fusion of spicy notes with sweet vanilla, complemented by hints of banana, yellow fruits, and a touch of sharpness. On the palate, the rum explodes with intense and spicy flavors, featuring dark chocolate, glue, banana, and yellow fruits. The finish is enduring, leaving behind spicy and woody flavors with notes of dark chocolate, cinnamon, allspice, and banana. Housed in a sophisticated presentation box, this single cask rum reflects Cadenhead's legacy of excellence. The company, which traces its roots back to 1842 when George Duncan established a wine merchant and distillery agency business in Aberdeen, has grown under the stewardship of William Cadenhead and later Robert Duthie to become a respected name in the spirits world. The complexity and depth of this 1999 Cask Strength MPM Uitvlught bottling have earned it high praise, with reviewers highlighting its rich flavors of tropical fruits like lychee, mangosteen, and passion fruit, alongside more traditional notes of vanilla and spices. This limited edition rum is a testament to the enduring quality and craftsmanship of the Uitvlugt Distillery, making it a prized addition for any rum enthusiast's collection.
