How does this rum taste?
Most love its powerful yet balanced mix of wood, caramel, coconut and fruit with superb alcohol integration; a few find it a bit too woody, sweet or sharp. Overall highly regarded NY94.
If you already enjoy NY94s or bourbon‑influenced Jamaicans, this one pushes those familiar coconut‑caramel notes to 30‑year depth at full strength, trading fruitiness for serious oak and warmth.
Beginners, those sensitive to high ABV or heavy oak influence, and drinkers looking for light, easygoing sweetness over concentrated, cask‑driven intensity.

#5643 30.08.2025 Tasted at the Germen Rum Fest 2025. Was lucky this bottle flew by and a sample went into my glass 😊 A nicely balanced NY with fruit and light ester notes. Wood and ABV are near perfectly integrated. There is a light floral and caramel touch to the profile.
German Rum Festival 2025. A pleasantly sweet woody nose, with stewed fruit. You can tell this rum has spent a lot of time in casks. Freshness too, with a slight menthol note. Very full-bodied, immediately reminiscent of one of the best New Yarmouth 94s, to be verified later. The aromas continue to build on the palate and fill the whole. The finish is very long, with lovely sweet acidity and a touch of bourbon. The pronounced wood only comes in at the end. A truly remarkable rum, thank you Skyfly.
Messebewertung: neuer Release von Distilia. Mit einer der besten 1994er NY die ich bisher in Glas hatte. Bringt alle typischen Aromen mit. Das Bourbon-Finish ist genial geworden und wirkt in keiner Weise störend.
An incredibly elegant and heavy, delicious old New Yarmouth. Intense bourbon and glue notes, cinnamon, dark roasted coconut chips, dark chocolate with sea salt, some mint and spicy ginger, vanilla and tonka bean, cookie dough and ripe tropical fruits. The 30y in the cask don't seem too much, but are really well integrated. Incredibly mild, delicious and well-balanced. Great stuff! Thanks to SkyFly for the opportunity!
