Review by Tschusikowsky
Long finish. Heavy and intense. Bitter and dry but not disturbing for me. I like it really well.

Edit: Die letzten Reste im MaiTai probiert (immer wieder angefixt durch SaibotZtar), mal nicht im CubaLibre. Klasse Mixer!!! Im Glas zum Blindtasting waren folgende 94er New Yarmouth Das vorläufige Ergebnis 1. RX10164 2. RX12050 3. RX12183 4. RX10531 5. RX16026 6. RX10419 7. RX13113 8. RX10167 9. RX15643 10. RX10204 11. RX12556 12. RX12841 13. RX9617 14. RX1563 15. RX16027 16. RX12161 17. RX13824 18. RX6983 Bei der Einzelverkostung find ich ihn ziemlich lecker. Fast zu lecker. Nichts anderes hätte ich von einem 94er New Yarmouth erwartet. Es ist einfach immer noch mein Lieblingsprofil. Muss sich hinter seinen Konkurrenten nicht verstecken. Ein großes Crosstesting muss noch erfolgen. Edit: nachdem ich ihn länger stehen hatte, ist im Geschmack super die Milchschokolade erkennbar, die sich cremig, geschmedig am Gaumen legt. Einfach nur lecker! Nach oben deswegen korriegiert.

This is a really nice release. Fruity and chemical nose with some spice and caramel. The palate is intense in a positive way and also fruity with roasted wood, spice, chocolate and light caramel. The finish is long and warm and sticks to the nose and palate. It needs to rest for a good while before revealing all its flavours.
Review by DomM
A little harsh on the nose compared to its peers.
Review by Basti
Sehr leckere Nase mit Kokosnuss, getr. Früchten, Karamell, etwas Klebstoff, tropischen Früchten, Gewürzen und einer leichten Süße. Am Gaumen schon intensiv mit gut integriertem Alkohol. Gefällt mir insgesamt sehr gut.
Review by Thunderbird
A very good NY with a pronounced coconut nose... The rum convinces me
Review by TheRhumhoe
Un vieux New Yarmouth qui a conservé sa sensualité malgré son âge. Le nez est assez pêchu, avec des épices vives (vanille, poivre, piment, muscade), un chêne toasté bien imbriqué au jus et des notes de colle et de vernis. Le chocolat et le café sont assortis aux notes pâtissières sur le caramel au beurre et le toffee, accompagnant la noix de coco et les fruits secs (raisin). Un profil puissant et gourmand en perspective. En bouche, c’est un rhum expressif et vif qui se dévoile aux travers de ses innombrables saveurs, allant de la noix de coco et des fruits secs (raisin) au caramel et autres viennoiseries, en passant par le chocolat noir, le café, le cuir, les notes toastées, le boisé intense et les épices chaudes (vanille, piment, poivre, muscade). L’ensemble est très goûtu, cela reste sec mais très rond, sûrement en raison d’un degré légèrement inférieur aux autres New Yarmouth 1994. L’alcool est de fait très bien intégré. La finale est longue, chaude et intense. L’élégance des notes boisées, la gourmandise des épices, du chocolat et du café, l’opulence de la noix de coco et du caramel pâtissier et le côté sombre des notes toastées et du cuir donnent un profil subtil et raffiné mais avec du caractère. Une très belle sélection, qui garde son authenticité mais demeure plus abordable que les autres embouteillages du même profil.
Review by Joachim Guger
New Yarmouth 1994, my favorite.The profile is well known. This time a lot of fruit, wood, not so complex. Craftsmanship impeccable.I like the RA and the Rome Deluxe better.
Review by mto75
94 NY Tasting: Kill Devil, S.B.S. and RA. The RA clearly on 1, the Kill Devil on 2 and the S.B.S on 3, whereby the S.B.S due to the low ABV compared to its competitors seems less massive. However, it also has a multi-layered nose.
Review by F.L.O.
Intensive Röstaromen, viel Nuss und Holz bestimmen die Nase. Im Geschnack und vor allem beim Abgang wird die Nass nochmal deutlich bestätigt. Gerade die Nuss und die Eiche ist total präsent. Sehr geil.
Review by Oliver
Toller New Yarmouth aus 1994 mit Power!
Review by Jakob
Top-Vertreter aus dem 94er Jahrgang mit ordentlich Kraft am Gaumen. Süss, aber ausgewogen im Zusammenspiel mit Holz und Würzigkeit. Dazu dezente Fruchtester.
Review by Manuel
Klasse Rum der Kill Devil Reihe. Alkohol sehr gut eingebunden, leichte Süße und angenehmer Abgang.
Review by Leo Tomczak
Relativ dezenter NY 94er. Alle typischen Marker sind vorhanden. Karamell, Holz, vanille.
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 Kill Devil punktet mitnschönenen Noten nach Gebäck und Kokosnuss. Erinnert mich an einen guten Foursquare.
