New Yarmouth RA Jamaica Rum 1994
World‑class old New Yarmouth: powerful, coconut‑vanilla bourbon profile, deep roasted oak and dark fruits, very long finish and outstanding value for a 31‑year Jamaican cask strength rum.
The fruity funkiness usually found in younger Jamaicans is replaced in this 1994 by a very complex, old, and noble richness. Glue, cold coffee, and coconut are part of it. On the palate, you notice the 66%, but in a positive way. It releases an extremely intense flavor. The wood-accompanied glue splits into a wide range of aromas. Very exciting. The finish is so long that you don’t realize when the notes of wood, toffee, and dried fruits like dried mango fade away.Read more

Auto-translatedSecond tasting with a healthy nose and a bit of oxidation in the sample bottle: The alcohol hits the nose and the roasted notes are stronger than in the first tasting. Clearly funkier than RX1563 – but not young, spritzy funky, rather old, dignified funky 😉 On the palate again quite a present alcohol. Overall, I like it a bit better than the 2020 bottling (+0.1). Small comparison tasting with the two 94er New Yarmouth from Rum Artesanal: Color in the glass: identical, the current bottling is maybe a shade lighter than RX1563. Also interesting are the barrel numbers: 203 and 204 were combined in RX1563, RX24450 has barrel number 205. This suggests the barrels were purchased at the same time from Heinz Eggert. Nose: Bourbon, esters, fruits, more intense than RX1563, otherwise very similar. Palate: after about 2 seconds I get a "fruit kick" (which I don’t find in RX1563), otherwise very balanced, again bourbon, coconut, alcohol is present. Finish: long and very balanced, no bitterness. I’m not a big fan of the 94er New Yarmouths but in my opinion this bottling is at least as good as RX1563! I need to repeat the tasting because today my senses are affected by a starting cold. The first impression and the price asked are already enough for a recommendation. p.s. I couldn’t find any herbal notes 😉

Nose Medium intense, light wood, fruity, mango, light coconut, polish, light caramel, glue, ester. Palate Oily, intense, wood, light roasted, nutts, clove, balanced, raisin, light coffee, fruity, mango, light coconut, glue, ester. Finish Very long and warm, wood, roasted, light coffee, banana, faint citrus. Empty glass Light nutts, light coconut, caramel, mango, cinnamon. Needs to rest for a while to really open up properly.
Wieder mal ein hervorragender Vertreter der mittlerweile (auf Rumx 42) verschiedenen NY94. Der Alkohol ist etwas präsent, aber sonst keine Fehlnoten. Für den Preis wirklich unschlagbar!
