New Yarmouth Flensburg Rum Company The Village (Nürnberg)

Aromas of sherry, caramel, coconut, and red fruits dance with vanilla and woody notes on the palate, all underpinned by subtle roasted elements. Most agree the sherry finish brings harmonious sweetness without overpowering the New Yarmouth DNA—community-backed choice for adventurous collectors.

    How does this rum taste?

    • Outstanding sweetness meets refined oak
    • Sherry finish boosts rich fruit character
    • Cask strength, yet surprisingly smooth

    Sherry-kissed red fruits lead a lively nose, layered with caramel, vanilla, coconut, and just a hint of classic New Yarmouth glue. RumX tasters highlight the balance between deep sweetness and refined oak, with well-integrated cask strength. A rare treat for those seeking a sophisticated, dessert-driven Jamaican—worth exploring if you enjoy complex, fruit-forward profiles.

    "Beautiful fair bottling, which is an all-round successful rum. I have a lot of caramel on the nose, but also musty wood tones, like old Armagnacs from damp cellars. In the mouth, there are parallels to the Rum Nation Clarendon 1991 (RX 1012). The sherry cask comes through very discreetly, but is still noticeable. Otherwise, the usual oak/vanilla tones with some red fruits. Great drinkable, almost light overall impression despite the high %%. Lots of barrel influence without being too bitter due to the high storage. Nice and long finish that encourages salivation. All in all, I'm still missing an aha moment with this rum. It's very well made and well selected, but nothing I'll remember in a week's time. Justified PLV with a great bottle design."

    "The following 94 New Yarmouths were in the blind tasting glass The preliminary result 1ST RX10164 2. RX12050 3. RX12183 4. RX10531 5. RX16026 6. RX10419 7. RX13113 8. RX10167 9. RX15643 10. RX10204 11. RX12556 12. RX12841 13. RX9617 14. RX1563 15. RX16027 16. RX12161 17. RX13824 18. RX6983 Have to try it again, but it just picked me up, will report back. I'm just flashed. Very good... I tried it again and added a few drops of water after a while. It develops again and becomes even rounder than it already is. Edit: Now that I've tested five New Yarmouth bottlings against each other and it "only" took 3rd place, I'm adjusting it downwards by 0.1 points."

    "Not the typical NY 1994 ... as with all 1994s, this one is not really directly associated with THE typical Jamaica rum. Alcohol is well integrated. Very drinkable, I personally don't find the Oloroso finish too extreme or very disturbing ... I can also still clearly taste the typical NY genes. I like it ✌️"

    "Not necessarily a huge fan of sherry finishes in rum. With the 94 NY this works quite well, however. The rum‘s DNA is still clearly noticeable. Sips very nice overall. Trying this side by side to non finished 94 NYs, the verdict remains the same. The finish is well done and adds a nice variation to the profile while preserving the inherent character."
