     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!

     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
