People already into Jamaican funk are the crowd here. This New Yarmouth pot-still throws overripe banana, varnish and warm baking spice at you, with a nose several tasters said they could smell forever. At 60.2% the alcohol hits hard at first, so give it a rest and a drop of water. A couple of members rank it just behind the CDI Perola and Denmark siblings.
The community says- Overripe banana
- Long spicy finish

How does CDI New Yarmouth Jamaica 2009 taste?
Summarized by AI from 31 community reviews.
Funky banana-and-varnish Jamaican at cask strength Well liked as an intense, fruity NY, with rotten banana and ester driving it. Give it air and water; a few found it a touch flatter and less complex than sibling casks.

#4091 Now to some newer tastings again. Driven by someone asking me to source some bottles from Sweden I finally got one myself as well and what a bottle. Price to quality is very good in my mind. I rested the rum for a good while and the flavours just come at you from opening the bottle and while resting in the glass. A funky and intense rum with nice rotten bananas and spicy/warm palate. If you like Jamaica then you should give this one a try if you get near it.

Beautifully fruity, full-bodied
Review by Adrian Wahl
A very nice NY 2009 bottled for Sweden. Compared to the CDI NY 2009 Perola and the CDI NY 2009 Denmark, it is right in the middle. An incredibly big thank you to Kevin for helping me get the bottle.
Review by Johannes
Fantastic NY, very round for the alcohol content.
Review by HenryL
I have found the nose of other NYs better so far. Doesn't seem very complex to me even after a longer standing time. But it has a nice ester nutmeg note. Surprisingly intense banana note on the palate. The alcohol is very well integrated. I really like the ginger note, which increasingly replaces the banana over time. This is accompanied by a change from sweetness to a slight spiciness.
Review by Mentalo
In direct comparison with the CDI (Perola) this bottling falls a bit short. Overall a bit flatter and even less fruity. Lots of cookie dough and marzipan. Again a slight acidity here.
Review by Alex Kunath
At the glass you want to smell eeewig! Excellent New Yarmouth!
Review by Alex1981
Nice young NY with a beautiful fruity nose! The palate is a bit overwhelming at first with some fierce, powerful alcohol that settles over time. So give it some time to rest and enjoy the nose in the meantime :-)
Review by JFehr
Nice. Exciting, fruity and nice esters. Alcohol very well integrated.
Review by Emanuel S
Intense and complex rum. Tropical fruits and spices for days. Could smell this forever. It benefits from time in the glas and a dash of water. This is delicious stuff. Highly recommend.
Review by Motvind
Overripe fruits where banana stands out. The taste is also based on overripe fruit and spices that spread a pleasant warmth. A little chili heat, lacquer finishes in a long aftertaste.
Review by Pavel Ungr, RumRock
Vintage 2009. I rate it 8.9 out of 10, an excellent rum that ranks high even among my more than 1,300 ratings.
Review by Michael Janek
At first the scent is nothing but then kanagom develops, then it fades again and a pleasant scent remains Fruity taste, tickles the tongue, strong but pleasant
