"Today we have a 4 flight New Yarmouth 1994, one of my favorite profiles, Appleton 21yr goes SVW."
"In the blind tasting, I would have guessed Foursquare. However, somewhat darker and toastier with little fruitiness. On the palate creamy, spicy and relatively dry. Beautiful bottling for a top rating but complexity on the palate is missing."
"04.09.2022 Meeting up for a nice after event party at my hotel. Good rum and food spread over a full day. Nose Wood, light roasted, fruits, light caramel, glue, faint marzipan, light ginger. Palate Medium dry, oily, wood, light roasted, fruits, glue, light caramel, light ginger, faint chocolate, medium dry. Finish Long, wood, roasted, medium dry, coconut, tannins, light ginger."
"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 Thompson Brothers ist einer der fruchtigeren NY mit einer schönen Johannisbeeren-Note, aber irgendwie recht einfach. Guter Rum, aber bei dem heutigen Line-Up das Schlusslicht."
