    "Decent NY94 with typical notes and more on the roasty side, but also a lot of "green" ... a nice nutty bitter note on the palate that goes well with coconut, banana and caramel. For me in the midfield ... not a top performer but not a total failure either. The Vintage has simply already reached its zenith"

    "Another, but older 1994 New Yarmouth. The nose has the familiar markers and I still like it best here. On the palate, the influence of the cask is already very noticeable, but in combination with the spicy component, it's still okay. The finish is borderline for me as far as the now bitter cask taste is concerned. The bottling is still just very good, but has obviously passed its zenith"

    "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."
