“Typical New Yarmouth 1994 profile, but with a little more spiciness. Is not quite enough in my eyes for the top tier of NY94 releases, but a great rum remains this release anyway.”

“The second Fine Dram for today. At 68%, but more is not possible. Again such an old grenade. Tropically matured for 24 years. Madness. Nose: oha, the high ABV first bites properly. It takes a bit until the aromas open up behind it. But then I have wonderful tropical fruit, tart sweet passion fruit and passion fruit, and some tart gooseberry and tangerine. After the fruit, esters and vinegar find their way in ever so slightly, framed by vanilla and cream toffee. With a little patience and care, a beautiful, dense and full-bodied nose. 8.9 Palate: very powerful and intense. Decently astringent and slightly bitter at the start. Roasty and spicy with nutmeg and pepper. At the same time, fruity with lemon zest, grapefruit and distinct coconut. The 68% is quite demanding on the palate. Fruit and spice are already in balance. The finish adds a pleasant note of violets. I like the flavor curve. 8.9 Overall a bit too brute, but with patience it stretches you deep. The long tropical aging makes this NY nicely compact and intense.”

“Tasted against the sister bottling at 68.5 eser has the rounder and less pungent nose. The other is possibly Somewhat more diverse. Slightly different but on points for me about the same. Both very good but both no exception 94s NY - but in any case a very good PLV.”
