How does this rum taste?
Mature, woody New Yarmouth classic
If you already enjoy other NY94 bottlings but want to see how long oak aging adds roast, coffee and coconut layers, this is a thoughtful, slightly drier take on the style.
Beginners or drinkers who dislike strong oak, tannins and roasted bitterness, or anyone expecting a fresh, very fruity, high‑ester Jamaican powerhouse.

04-04-2025 - Rate 8.9 Classic NW. Love the nose. Missing s little on the plate. 55,8% is a bit to low.
Excellent and typical NY94, which becomes an easy sipper due to its low alcohol content! Really good! But if you're looking for a board like the RA, you've certainly come to the wrong place.
Delicious old New Yarmouth and, together with the FRC, the oldest for me to date. Overall, it's very much on the woody side, dark, heavy and spicy. Banana and coconut are present but are complemented by toasted oak cask, cardamom, strong mocha, cinnamon and some mint. Delicious and priced ok but won't be my favorite 94 NY!😅 Overall it's a bit too astringent and bitter for me, woody though balanced and easy to drink. But my expectations were higher.
And what do we have here? The popular NY1994 again, this time 30 years old. Smells nice, nice coconut, wood, tropical fruit. The taste is lower alcohol, more woodiness, coconut still present but a little overpowered by the wood, as if to suggest the rum wanted out of the cask earlier. The finish starts to lack flavours, leaving vanilla, wood and strength of alcohol.
