CDI New Yarmouth Jamaica (Bottled for Denmark) 2009

"Jamaica in pure form," one member calls it, and the glass backs him up. Overripe banana, pineapple and mango pour out alongside a big hit of ester and polish, with marzipan and biscuit dough underneath. The 59.5% sits well-integrated for a cask-strength pour. Several tasters blind-guessed Hampden before landing on New Yarmouth — that's the ester league you're in.

The community says
  • Basket of tropical fruit
  • Big ester hit
  • But: Bitter citrus finish

Just a bit more fruit forwards on the nose versus its brothers.

#4104 This release has more bang for your buck. Really nice and intense and nice curtains in the glass. Fruity with almost rotting fruits and nice esters. All in good balance once rested properly. Spicy and warm on the palate with a very long finish. The empty glass is really nice with more fruit and some medicinal notes.

Great NY 2009 for Denmark. But in direct comparison to the CDI NY 2009 Perola and the CDI NY 2009 Sweden for me only rank 3.

Genau mein Ding - Sau viel Ester, ein Korb tropischer Früchte (insbesondere Ananas und Banane, aber auch Mango), einer guten Portion Lack, etwas Keksteig und leichte Würz- und Holzaromen. Alkohol ist perfekt eingebunden!

New Yarmouth 

Avg Rating 8.7/10 96 Rums

New Yarmouth is Jamaican rum's best-kept secret. There are almost no photos of it, it makes Wray & Nephew White, the island's best-selling rum, and it is one of only three distilleries that can reach the highest esters. Collectors only really discovered it through aged 1994 vintages, which have become some of the most surprising rums on RumX.
