Review by Manuel
Ein wirklich hervorragender New Yarmouth. Schon beim Einschenken sehr intensive Düfte nach Gebäck, tropischen Früchten und Gewürzen. Sehr langer Abgang. Für mich sind die Tannine etwas störend sonst aber genial.

Hatte mir etwas mehr erhofft. Nicht auf dem Niveau des RA NYE 94
Review by Thunderbird
Ein angenehmer, runder und guter, aber nicht überragender Vertreter von NY!
Review by Martin Spooner
New Yarmouth lineup. Schöne Kokosnuss Nase mit ordentlich vollreifen Früchten. Dazu gesellt sich im Geschmack noch Schokolade. Aber die Kokosnuss ist schon dominant. Sehr schöner runder new Yarmouth. Wirklich toll.

Review by Jarek
Heute ein Tasting mit sieben Abfüllungen des 1994 New Yarmouth: Thompson Brothers, Royal Cane, Kill Devil, Rum Sponge, Ron Artesanal, FRC Bottles Shop und Maolt, Grain & Cane. Der Thompson Brothers ist einer der fruchtigeren NY mit einer schönen Johannisbeeren-Note, aber irgendwie recht einfach. Guter Rum, aber bei dem heutigen Line-Up das Schlusslicht.
Review by Oliver
In the blind tasting, I would have guessed Foursquare. However, somewhat darker and toastier with little fruitiness. On the palate creamy, spicy and relatively dry. Beautiful bottling for a top rating but complexity on the palate is missing.

Sladsi nez bych cekal, hutnej vybornej
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Very dark, very roasty, much less fruity and less sweet as the SBS in comparison. Has what of dark chocolate with espresso bean splitter and sea salt! In terms of complexity he could put a little more on the bank but overall still very tasty!
Review by Lot-NAS
I am kind of disappointed, it feels unbalanced and like a mixture made from everything what NY can be but without any aspect really standing out.
