How does this rum taste?
Smoky New Yarmouth with whisky twist
If you enjoy both peated single malt and mature Jamaican rum, this is a fun crossover: the community sees it as a smoky, experimental spin rather than a textbook NY94.
NY94 purists wanting the classic, fruit-forward profile, and drinkers who dislike peat, whisky notes or higher-strength, tannic rums.

Needs some time to fullt develop its flavours. I got some dried fruits, banana, wood and spices accompanied by an earthy, peated whisky. I must say I am not a huge fan of rum aged/finished in peated whisky casks, but in this case it´s nothing too disturbing. I would even say it compliments the aromas. The taste and finish is very concentrated, full bodied again with tropical fruits, caramel, milk chocolate and quite intense tannins & peppery notes.
Too much toasted for my taste, this rum is dominated by the whisky cask with peat, coffee and leather notes, both nosing and drinking. Great complexity percieved but not my piece of cake when sipping even if I have to recognise the rum is a great rum. Being the evaluation subjective, my mark is pretty low despite the quality of the rum, only due to the barrel.
Slightly worse than the 26 year old Yarmouth of the same company, the taste is not so smooth. Still a decent rum, just better for the money.
Good New Yarmouth with an unusual finish. Especially in the direct comparison, the whiskey finish stands out clearly. If you like (smoky) whiskey a great bottling with twist.
