    How does this rum taste?

    • complex flavor profile
    • alcohol is fully incorporated
    • wonderful animalic note a la Caroni 21

    RumX members keep circling back to vanilla, coconut, caramel, and chocolate in this New Yarmouth 1994 NYC, often with a rich, complex undertone and a surprisingly integrated high ABV. Multiple tasters mention how "the alcohol is fully incorporated" and is "well worth the money" (Roman Lelek, Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰). There's a clear pastry-like, sweet note running through, described as "coconut à la vanille praliné, fruits confits enrobé de caramel et de chocolat au lait" (Santo). If you have time, let it open up—a few note the benefits of “give it some time in the glass” (Aussierumfan).

    "Boom! Another phenomenal 1994 NY! The nose just hits like a sledge hammer, massively complex, definitly give it some time in the glass to calm down. On the palate it's typical well aged jamaican from this vintage, complex, dried fruits, dark chocolate/mocha/coffee, vanilla and then there is the wood influence without being too bitter. Can tell its spent most of its time in the tropics, its so complex. The alcahol is so well integrated, you just couldn't tell its 2/3rds straight booze! this seems to be a common theme with these 94s. The 3 I have tried so far (corman collins, swell and now this one) are all just amazing rums. A long dry finish."

    "Bam, once you open this bottle you know where in the world you are. An elegant and yet fruity rum with some wood, smoke, spice and delicious fruit. A bit expensive but we'll worth the money 😀"

    "Also a Little harsh on the nose. Very nice on the palate with candid lime (?) and also hints of herbs. Particularly adstringent vs. peer group."
