    "Edit: Die letzten Reste im MaiTai probiert (immer wieder angefixt durch SaibotZtar), mal nicht im CubaLibre. Klasse Mixer!!! Im Glas zum Blindtasting waren folgende 94er New Yarmouth Das vorlĂ€ufige Ergebnis 1. RX10164 2. RX12050 3. RX12183 4. RX10531 5. RX16026 6. RX10419 7. RX13113 8. RX10167 9. RX15643 10. RX10204 11.

Nichts anderes hĂ€tte ich von einem 94er New Yarmouth erwartet. Es ist einfach immer noch mein Lieblingsprofil. Muss sich hinter seinen Konkurrenten nicht verstecken. Ein großes Crosstesting muss noch erfolgen. Edit: nachdem ich ihn lĂ€nger stehen hatte, ist im Geschmack super die Milchschokolade erkennbar, die sich cremig, geschmedig am Gaumen legt. Einfach nur lecker! Nach oben deswegen korriegiert."

    "This is a really nice release. Fruity and chemical nose with some spice and caramel. The palate is intense in a positive way and also fruity with roasted wood, spice, chocolate and light caramel. The finish is long and warm and sticks to the nose and palate. It needs to rest for a good while before revealing all its flavours."

    "A little harsh on the nose compared to its peers."
