New Yarmouth Rum Artesanal Jamaica Rum 2009

Surprise here is how much lands beyond the ester wall: yes, glue and fermented tropical fruit hit first, but tasters keep finding warm brioche, marzipan and sweet mandarin underneath. At 66.9% it's powerful, described by one member as "almost overwhelming" yet balanced. This New Yarmouth 2009 pot-still funk bomb is the bottle that put the distillery on many people's radar.

The community says
  • Big ester funk
  • Marzipan and brioche
  • Keep in mind: High-proof heat

The look inside the bottle

How does New Yarmouth Rum Artesanal Jamaica Rum 2009 taste?

From community reviews · summarized with AI

Powerful, ester-driven New Yarmouth funk bomb Loved by funk fans as a powerful, ester-heavy Jamaican with brioche and marzipan depth. A few find it a touch harsh, bitter, or one-dimensional next to older New Yarmouths.

Once rested this is really nice and hits really well on both the nose and palate. An intense yet really well balanced rum and the nose was was really nice in the empty glass. Even the day after the glass gave some wonderful notes.

Yes, definitely Jamaica, fermented fruits and massive esters from the start. The rum is like a double whammy, in the nose and on the palate, so it must! Now, however, my individual but:I have the rum parallel to the NY 1994 of Valinch

How can it be that after 4 years I still don't have a review for this bottling? For me it's one of the best bottlings I've ever tasted from NY. Apart from the 94s, there was somehow nothing else that I liked so much. Powerful, almost overwhelming, but then just perfectly balanced and complex. An estery bomb, but at the same time it offers a lot more. Warm brioche, sweet mandarins, marzipan, but also a slight smokiness and a hint of cinnamon. I think I could write a lot more here, perhaps I'm exaggerating a little. But somehow this rum has done it to me! Addendum: The sister bottling is also strong, really top, but for me a touch behind this one.

Tasted against the sister bottling that's 6 months older. Both real knockouts and very comparable. Reminds me on the nose of oriental almond semolina pastries. Wonderful.

Comes in comparison to the second edition first on the nose a little more elegant. Nice bananig, then some citrus on the palate but then for me also a little more bitter, since I like the second actually ne corner better at this moment.But otherwise similar and also great rum.

On the nose there is the full load of esters and glue followed by spice and fruit, but mostly toasty and bitter notes like tobacco and chocolate. With the chocolate, marzipan resonates somewhere in between, making the nose quite complex. In the mouth, not as furry musty as some other Jamaicans, but still spicy dry with fermented sour fruit. At the same time, this rum is also sweet, which is why the mouthfeel is somewhat rounded. At the latest in the finish, a chemical note (solvent) appears, which reminds me most of raspberry or something floral. To this then yet fermented, musty and furry.

Great rum, nose, palate and finish are very homogeneous.First and funk are in the foreground and the alcohol is well integrated.Compared to the "Second edition" very similar, possibly a little milder.

Today, a classic comparison: the Rum Artesanal New Yarmouth first Edition from 2009 (very, very tasty) against the new The Whisky Jury. Since the TWJ in the bulbous bottle didn't really convince me, the differences in the new bottling in the elongated bottle are negligible.

Tasted together with the second edition. This one is a bit harsher, peppery, a banana bread note, almonds, some esters but not too much, citrus, even a slight vegetable note, alcohol not that well integrated, but the finish is pleasant. Overall I felt the second edition is a much rounder one.

Really great JNY from the good old days of RA. On the nose, a variety of exciting typical Jamaican aromas and a nice ester note with fermented tropical fruits appear. On the palate, at first the oily wood is present and then the rest of the aromas unfold, similar to the nose. Very tasty and easy to drink, next up into the Mai Tai with this delicious drop...

🟢 Rum Artesanal – New Yarmouth 2009 – 66.9% Now we go to Jamaica, with a rum from a distillery often in the shadow of Hampden or Long Pond: New Yarmouth. Long reserved for industrial blends (like the White Overproof from J. Wray & Nephew), this distillery revealed itself to enthusiasts around 2017, notably thanks to CDI, before other bottlers like Rum Artesanal took interest. This New Yarmouth 2009, mark JNY, does not belong to the official categories of the distillery (it would be between a NYE/HM and a NYE/RR on the ester side). But what can be said is that it packs a punch: 66.9%, very estery, but with a nice balance. Fermented fruits, very appealing pastry. And to top it all off... a release price of 50 €. Crazy given the quality of the product.

Expert review by The Dunder Hut

In retrospective it's quite interesting to think that this kicked of a glorious series of new yarmout 2009's bottles. And put new Yarmouth on the map for a broader audience this is a nice and funky rum in between long pond and Hampden.
