S.B.S Jamaica

A very great Jamaican. Before tasting and smelling necessarily let the glass stand a few minutes. It is gentle and not too intrusive but still full of character and length. Melting, creamy after coconut.

also not classic new but should be considered though 2k

This one is really good and despite the age the wood is not overly dominant. Fruity with spices, lovely caramel and leather and some chocolate in the background. Should have bought a few bottles when still available 😊

The NY94 has never disappointment me. But this rum is such a joy to sip. An absolutely lovely nose that draws you in, I got notes of chocolate, oak, spice, bananas and acetone. The body has a fair bit of chocolate and over ripe fruits. Nice lingering peppery finish, perhaps a bit mellow, definitely drew me to that one more sip. Such a delight this one!

Super quaffable. I like the 94 NY. The SBS has more coco like the VM, the RA is more intense and overall for me still a bit better than SBS and VM.

A New Yarmouth of a somewhat different kind! Not the full ester power, rather restrained, but very pleasantly soft... a feeling of summer sets in with the pleasure! Delightful!

Interesting rum, it shows 26 years. Smooth rich aroma, nice complex taste.

Un superbe New Yarmouth qui se veut riche, délicat et savoureux. Le nez se pare de fruits exotiques (banane, noix de coco) avant de laisser place à quelques notes de solvants et de colle très légères. Le boisé est fin, fondu dans le décor dont les épices, le chocolat et les noisettes grillées font office d’ornements. Un nez qui laisse songeur. L’attaque en bouche est exquise. La noix de coco ouvre le bal, puis viennent des notes boisées et épicées intenses, chaleureuses et pimentées, avant qu’une gourmandise extrême n’envahisse le palais : le chocolat, l’amande, le toffee, le massepain, les notes de miel et de crème au caramel confèrent une douceur insoupçonnée à ce profil qui se veut intense caractériel de prime abord. La finale est très longue, axée sur cette même gourmandise qui fait son succès : chocolat, noisette, crème au caramel, café, réglisse, vanille et des notes légèrement toastées font le bonheur des papilles. Un rhum au plaisir interminable, qui même avec quelques degrés de moins que les autres profils, laisse rêveur.

A genuine pastry 😋

Eine verrückte Kombination aus Kokosnuss und Klebstoff in der Nase, wie man sie wohl nur bei Rum erleben kann. Im Mund dominieren neben der Kokosnuss Holz, Karamell und Schokoladenaromen. Der extrem weiche Abgang ist geprägt von Holznoten. Sehr cremiger Rum, bei dem man froh sein kann noch ne Pulle im Keller zu haben :)

Excellent. Very greedy, very pastry-like, no fruity funk. Alcohol very well integrated. Very round and well patinated by the years without being marked by eucalyptus and menthol. Just great.

Im Mund getr. Früchte und Karamell, aber auch dominante holzige und bittere Noten. Der Abgang ist ebenfalls holzig und bitter. Alkohol ist sehr gut eingebunden. Gefällt mir insgesamt gut, aber nach dem ersten Eindruck kein NY94-Spitzenvertreter. Ein Crosstasting wird's zeigen :)

Chose this for my 250th rum tasting (be not irritated, I did not publish my earliest ones as they are without any notes) from my sample box. Had it I two separate sessions one at the river (picture) and one at home. The first try was a bit thin on the tongue, but that was expected in not ideal circumstances. It already had some power. The second try had a long time to breathe obviously und was much more intense tastewise. I got what I expected from a NY of this age, wood and spice was there and gave it a classic background. The Alcohol is not harsh, and in the aftertaste I was surprised by a sudden appearance of slight jamaican Funk. Nice!

Impression to taste a foursquare. This coconut caramel or chocolate is very pronounced. Very sweet in the mouth. Just a pity for the length but it is very good.. A bit confusing for a 26 years old Jam
