Romdeluxe New Yarmouth Wild Series Rum Jamaica No. 39 NYE/WK 2019
One member called it "a Jamaica rum on steroids," and that's the honest picture. New Yarmouth ester funk hits hard: glue, overripe tropical fruit, marzipan and a touch of smoke, all at a brutal 84.7%. Most tasters say rest it and add water or it bites. Wild and fun, but its young age shows — several wished for more barrel time.
The community says- Intense ester funk
- Marzipan and tropical fruit

How does Romdeluxe New Yarmouth Wild Series Rum Jamaica No. 39 NYE/WK 2019 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Brutal, young New Yarmouth ester bomb Loved by funk fans as a fruity, glue-heavy ester bomb with the alcohol shockingly well integrated. The common gripe: too young, could use more time in the cask.

This is a retasting with the RumX guys. ----- This is a Jamaica rum on steroids, not only because of the ABV, but also the profile itself. Many will probably need to add water because it's like a hammer of flavours. Make sure to rest it for a good while or it will bite, shred and spit you out in a flash. From pouring the nose already reveals where it's from and it just gets better from there. A very intense and complex rum with an oily touch to the palate. Nice fruitiness and I really like the marzipan note in there. Price to quality is pretty good 😊

Post-tasting from the Pueblo del Ron in Nuremberg, where I picked up the sample at Rom de Luxe. I like the nose quite well, but it's a bit rough on the palate. For me, it clearly falls into the category of overpriced, too-short Rom de Luxe experiments. I would need a little more wood ageing for a pleasurable sipping experience and would then be more willing to pay the price.
Review by Leo Krüper
Great nose with lots of power and some smoke on the back. Some BBQ flavors already noticeable, but also glue. I could smell it all day long. A lot in the mouth at once. Glue also dominates some chemical notes without being too unpleasant. Quite balanced despite the 85% and quite drinkable. Lots of salivation in the finish and again lots of glue. Overall, it seems young and powerful (which it is). Even if it is difficult with the high percentages, I would have wished for longer storage here. In my opinion, the HGML from the GRF was noticeably better and more balanced. Price/availability is not an issue.
Review by DomM
Nice and intense bottling. Vast basket of tropical fruits and funky esters combined with marzipan and cookie notes. Compared to the RDL HGML, the latter had a more pronounced impact from the barrel putting it ahead of the NY we have here.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
New Yarmouth almost in its purest form, surprisingly smooth for just under 85%. It's amazing how well the alcohol is integrated and how well the virgin oak works here. Romdeluxe really knows how to integrate extremely high percentages well.
Review by Thunderbird
What a beast, but in a positive sense! The nose impresses with glue, ester, marzipan and vanilla; all very pronounced! On the palate, everything immediately tightens up, which is natural given the volume of alcohol. It then spreads out oily, esters and glue spread out and are then replaced by a marzipan sweetness and light woodiness. A rather noticeable sour note also asserts itself. All of this with a strong intensity. The finish is long, accompanied by marzipan, wood and tart tropical fruit. In contrast to the HGML, this is simply "wild" but good! But definitely not easy to tame!
Review by Galli33
Kabooom👊🏻 As soon as you take the cap off, you get a full load of esters and glue (UHU), overripe fruit with delicate marzipan notes. The palate continues with a brute force... The high ester levels make it very furry and astringent. The finish is long, dry, a little astringent, the tropical fruit and marzipan linger on. The alcohol is surprisingly well integrated. It lacks complexity due to its young age, but is still fun (not recommended for beginners)!
Review by Adrian Wahl
Wow what a bomb. This thing is wild. Even after 30 minutes of breathing, the nose doesn't calm down. NYE is immediately recognizable, but clear focus on the fresh and younger high ester NYE. You don't smell the aging in the NYE 1994 cask. On the palate also wild. Ester and fruit go full throttle. Again, the aging in the NYE 1994 cask is not really noticeable. For me personally not as round as the GRF HGML, a bit more time in the cask would have helped. Alcohol very well integrated which is an art at this ABV. Crazy product, but unfortunately also crazy price. Considering the age.
Review by zabo
Tasted at the Pueblo del Ron Nuremberg 2024. Thanks to the guys from Romdeluxe who gave me this one. With the ABV, this is already a real board. A good "beginner's rum". Joking aside, it's good, but the bottle would be too expensive for the €179 it costs.
Review by Joachim Guger
Right in the face! I’ve never had such a strong rum. Young, funky NY. Not really my style, but very good.
Review by Schleepie
Another ester bomb from the house of RDL. A bit "milder" than number 32, maybe missing a trace of fruit. Alcohol skillfully integrated, even though this is a real sledgehammer bottling. Ester all over, lots of glue and funk. Fruity without end, very tropical. Unparalleled astringency - brutally tightens your mouth. Maybe a bit sharp, but very close to HGML. Could be rounder, another year in the cask wouldn't have hurt. Exciting rum and fantastic party gag. Delicious.
Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
On the nose, it's resinous, acidic, and fruity with extremely overripe aromas. Glue, caramel, and vanilla complete this aromatic bouquet. It's extreme, the nose is intense, very rich and concentrated. It's beautiful. The palate remains extreme as well, being extremely intense. The attack is straightforward with its 84.7% ABV. You find a heavier and oily profile. The nice fruitiness from the nose is still present along with almond paste. The finish, besides being very long, confuses with empyreumatic notes and extreme spices. What an experience! Clearly not for the faint-hearted, because it's really intense. But after such a high-level tasting (this was the 9th rum of the evening), what could be more normal than to positively face this UFO. Incredible tasting (both in quantity and quality). Thanks Romdeluxe and the anarchists (Salva and Alain) for organizing this top-notch masterclass.
Review by Pavel Spacek
Beautifully sweet, creamy, like caramel. Great choice for rum lovers who want to transition from sweet syrups to pure distillate. New Yarmouth 1994 rarely disappoints. This is a great choice you'll always be happy to return to.

Very young and unfortunately a lot of the potential is left behind. If only it had more time.
