Diamond Uitvlugt 1999 24-Year-Old Single Cask Nation Rum
Available now at World of Whiskey Shop, this single-cask rum was distilled in 1999 from molasses in traditional column stills, capturing the rich, complex ester profile that defines Demerara rum. Following decades of maturation, it was hand-selected for bottling at a robust, cask-strength 53.8% ABV, completely un-chillfiltered and free of added color or sugar, offering an unadulterated taste of rum antiquity.
In the glass, it displays a deep, dark mahogany-amber hue with thick, slow-moving legs. The nose opens with an arresting, multi-dimensional bouquet of dark treacle, burnt orange peel, licorice root, and old leather, intertwined with dried figs, pipe tobacco, and camphor notes. On the palate, a thick, viscous, and warming mouthfeel unleashes massive flavors of dark chocolate, molasses, espresso, and stewed prunes, balanced by robust French oak spices, menthol, and a whisper of maritime brine. The finish is legendary in its length, leaving a lingering trail of dark cocoa, charred oak, and exotic baking spices.
An extraordinary collector’s piece for serious rum enthusiasts and independent bottling aficionados, Diamond Uitvlugt 1999 is best enjoyed neat in a Glencairn glass, allowed to breathe slowly to reveal its profound layers. Order your bottle today from World of Whiskey Shop.
