    Hier sind mir pur persönlich etwas zu viel Gewürze dominant wie Muskatnuss und Ingwer, sowie vergorene Kiwi und geröstete Mandeln dazu. insgesamt sehr sehr lecker aber der 12er new Yarmouth hat ganz klar etwas die Nase vorn! Für drinks wie Corn'n'Oil aber absolut geil!

    Fantastic New Yarmouth. Very fruity and also vegetal. In addition, spicy-herbal and in the taste also biscuit-sweetish. Makes really fun!

    19.04.2019 Meeting up with some old colleagues at this wonderful hotel. Notes Light in colour. Nose Intense, fresh, light wood, pineapple, light glue, spices, plum. Palate Light wood, naturally sweet, light glue, faint polish, pineapple, spicy, light salt. Finish Long and warm, wood, light plum, light glue, pineapple.

    Certainly a good NY...but: in the nose I miss the fruitiness. Ester and glue dominate too much!On the palate initially esters, a pleasant sweetness and then the change to the spices with vanilla, allspice and ginger! Later transitioning to young wood! The alcohol quite well integrated!The finish is relatively short and is dominated by the spices allspice and licorice!For me it is not so coherent in relation to the other NY known to me
