“Bold, balanced Jamaican rum with chocolate notes.”

This 1994 New Yarmouth Jamaican rum, bottled by The Colours of Rum and aged for 26 years, offers a potent profile with a 68.7% ABV. Crafted from molasses in a traditional pot still, it presents aromas of coconut, vanilla, and oak, accompanied by flavors of chocolate, mocha, and roasted notes. Users compliment its balance of sweetness and complexity, noting a strong alcoholic presence yet well-integrated. While some find the lack of fruitiness and high alcohol slightly overpowering, this release is seen as a classic representation of New Yarmouth's 1994 series, highly praised for its blend of coconut, chocolate, and subtle medicinal nuances.

RX6983 Edit: Franconian Tasting Rating confirmed The 94 New Yarmouth vintage remains and is a real cracker. No matter which bottling I've had in my glass so far, I've never been disappointed. I had almost forgotten about it due to the saporization. It's been standing for quite a long time now and it's been really great. Simply delicious how the aromas have been released. I can now smell and taste hazelnut, it smells like you're holding your nose in a Nutella jar. Very, very tasty!!!”

“#4249 Getting my hands on these Colours of Rum samples isn't easy. But once I get some I'm never disappointed because the bar is usually pretty high. I rested this one for 30 minutes before giving it a go and the nose developed as time passed. This particular release is a non funky Jamaican and I still love it. Fruity and roasted wood with ABV really well integrated. Love the medicinal and caramel notes in the profile. Draws really nice curtains in the glass and the empty has some coconut, ginger and chocolate.”
