Precious Liquors New Yarmouth Malt, Grain & Cane for Bar Lamp Ginza and Rum & Whisky Kyoto 1994
Sip this one neat, and give it air — several tasters say it opens up dramatically after time in the glass. Roasted coconut chips, overripe banana, papaya and pineapple meet dark chocolate, dried dates and a "creamy toffee nose," with sour esters and glue underneath. At 67.9% it's warm and full-bodied; a drop or two of water suits some. Long, spicy finish.
The community says- Creamy toffee note
- Big ester funk
- Very long finish

Powerful, funky New Yarmouth with creamy toffee One of the loved 1994 New Yarmouths — powerful, funky, chocolate-and-coconut heavy with a huge finish. A few wish it were fruitier, and some find the alcohol a touch sharp.

Review by Thunderbird
This New Yarmouth from PL is significantly more present and stronger than the Lime House. The aromas are more intense and therefore it also appears more complex. In order to reach the top, it still lacks some fruit. Otherwise, another very good representative of the 94 NY
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Deutlich besser in full proof wie verdünnt! Dunkel geröstete Kokoschips, treffen auf Überreife Bananen und andere vergorene Tropenfrüchte wie Papaya und Ananas, dazu dunkle Schokolade, getrocknete medjoul Datteln und säuerliche Ester dazu ein schier endloser Abgang. Außerdem ungewöhnlich funky für einen 94er, diese Ester Power bringt nicht jeder mit... Krasser Stoff!
Review by Tschusikowsky
Round and very tasty rum. Excellent combination of accessibility and complexity. Present fruits, also esters tasty and dark chocolate. Alcohol very well integrated. A top representative of the vintage.
Review by Frank
After two very weak rums, I need something sensible again today. But then also the right one. NY, 26 yo, 68%. A sample from the 13th GRF: Nose: wonderfully complex, intense, with a dense aroma spectrum. Toasty-woody-spicy and tropical-fruity. Slightly smoky with leather, tobacco and a pleasant honey-caramel sweetness. Gooseberry, papaya, dried apricot and pineapple with a hint of coconut. The pleasant, present but restrained esters with glue and light marzipan go well with this. Fantastic nose. 9.0 Palate: powerful, full-bodied and intensely delicious. It is spicy-woody-roasty and at the same time nutty-chocolaty paired with tropical fruits. Initially astringent, salty and slightly bitter, but then immediately sweet and sour with pineapple and passion fruit, followed by fatty pecan and tonka bean. Behind that, leather and plenty of bourbon. If I had more than 2cl, the list would certainly be even longer. Great rum, but the %% is a great fit for me. 9,0

Review by Pavel Spacek
Beautifully sweet, creamy, like caramel. A great choice for rum drinkers who want to switch from sweet syrups to pure spirit. New Yarmouth 1994 rarely disappoints. This is a great choice that you will always want to come back to.
Review by Jarek
Heute ein Tasting mit paar Abfüllungen des 1994 New Yarmouth, die ich alle schon mal bewertet hatte. Und bei dem hier muss ich gleich mein Urteil etwas revidieren und die Note nach oben ziehen. Er ist nicht sehr auf der fruchtigen Seite, eher würzig und röstig, gefällt mir aber trotzdem sehr gut.
Review by Master P
94 NY mit viel power, Funk, dunkle Schokolade und vergorene früchte. Am anfang im mund funk und ester die dann in dunkle beeren übergehen. Sehr wärmend und für mich persönlich ist der alkohol nicht so gut eingebunden und der Abgang etwas scharf. Aber tolle Abfüllung
Review by Piotr Ignasiak
Couple of drops of water made it perfect, added few more later and it was too much. Nicely intense, it had the best nose of the three NY94 that i tried tonight. Overall I prefer the VM one, due to more pronounced raisin and cookie notes.
Review by Skyfly
Traumhafte Abfüllung! Von Nase über Gaumen bis Abgang ein super komplexer Rum, bei dem tropische Früchte, Holz, Schokolade, Kokosnuss, Papaya,Holz und Karamell eine perfekte Symbiose eingehen. Alkohol ist einfach perfekt eingebunden!
Review by Johannes
A typical 94 NY at an excellent level!
Review by Rene Pfeiffer
Awesome shit, very similar to the RA, but 400 euros per 0.7l = no.
Review by Alex1981
Solid NY94 release that ticks all the boxes. Rotten fruits, funkyness, power, wood. Just love this profile!
Review by DosenZorn
Good NY94. Classic 94 notes in the form of chocolate, coconut, red ripe berries are present. For a top rating, the alcohol on the palate should be better integrated. It's a little too sharp for me.
Review by Stijn Zino
Salon Du Rhum 2024 Close to perfection! No words needed. Trying a sample and yet again such a great rum! One of the better rums I tried since a long time. Creamy toffee nose, tropical fruits in the mouth with lots of coconut, very long finish. Nice wood over the whole line. Alcohol nicely integrated. Recommend you try this before you die!
Review by Lukas Jäger
Good one! Als 94er NY hat man große Konkurrenz, aber ich würde sagen, diese Abfüllung bewirbt sich um einen der vorderen Plätze. Intensiv und kraftvoll, aber auch ausgewogen zwischen den typischen Aromen dieses Jahrgangs, schmeckt mir dieser Tropfen wirklich gut. Einzig allein das Holz ist mir eine Spur zu dominant, aber darüber kann ich mal hinwegsehen.

Quite a dark nose with untypical chocolate aromas. Besides that the typical notes you expect. On the palate this is a rather spice heavy 1994 with all what you want. Long finish and in the end all around nice intense ny
