DESCRIPTION

Demerara Rum (Uitvlugt) 1997 46% Moon Import - Bottled 2012 is a remarkable creation, originating from the historic Uitvlugt Distillery in Guyana. This vintage rum, distilled in 1997, carries within it the bold essence of its tropical origin combined with the refined touch of extended aging.

The Uitvlugt Distillery, known for producing exquisite Demerara rums, has a rich history that directly impacts the quality and unique characteristics of its rums. Utilizing the base ingredient of molasses, this particular rum has endured a dual aging process—both in tropical and continental climates—imparting a complex and rich flavor profile.

Bottled by the esteemed Moon Import in 2012, this rum is a testament to their dedication to excellence and tradition in spirit curation. Moon Import, known for selecting and bottling some of the finest spirits, has maintained a reputation for rarity and high quality. With only 720 bottles produced, this limited edition makes it a coveted piece for collectors and connoisseurs alike.

The aging process employed for this rum involved Sherry wood casks, which contribute additional layers of flavor and depth. The influence of these casks typically imparts notes of dried fruits, nuts, and subtle spice, enhancing the complexity of the rum. At a strength of 46%, it strikes a balance between robustness and drinkability, appealing to a wide range of palates.

This bottle comes in a convenient 700 ml size, making it a substantial yet manageable addition to any discerning enthusiast's collection. Each drop of this Demerara Rum reveals the meticulous craftsmanship and heritage of the Uitvlugt Distillery and the expert bottling prowess of Moon Import.
