Built at the end of the 18th century, Uitvlugt is located on the western bank of the River Demerara, near the town of the same name founded by Dutch settlers in 1752. Nationalized in 1979 like many of the country's other distilleries, it was part of Demerara Distillers Ltd. until it closed in 1999. Although many distillations were completed in a Savalle still, Uitvlugt was also home to a Coffey still, a Versailles wood single pot still after Enmore closed in 1994, and a double pot still, also wooden, which is now kept at Port Mourant. After the distillery closed, all the distillation equipment was moved to Diamond, the country's last operating distillery.

An Uitvlugt 18 year old single cask distilled in 2007. Kill Devil and Golden Devil are ranges of rums bottled by Edition Spirits, an independent bottler created by Stewart Laing’’s sons Scott and Andrew Laing. They soon teamed up with their father after he left Douglas Laing, creating Hunter Laing, which owns Edition Spirits and Langside Distillers. A limited edition of 357 bottles.
