New Yarmouth Flensburg Rum Company The Village (Nürnberg) 1994

Here's the twist: this New Yarmouth 1994 got a sherry finish, and even the sherry-skeptics came around. Expect caramel, coconut and vanilla meeting dark red fruit and milk chocolate, with a whiff of glue underneath. Several tasters call it surprisingly sweet and "quite accessible" for the marque. The 67% hides remarkably well — a few drops of water opens it further.

The community says
  • Great ABV integration
  • Long chocolatey finish
  • Not top of vintage

How does New Yarmouth Flensburg Rum Company The Village (Nürnberg) 1994 taste?

Aggregated from 73 community reviews.

Sherry-finished 94 New Yarmouth, sweet and smooth Widely liked as a well-made 94 NY where the sherry rounds things out without burying the rum. The recurring catch: it's a good one, not the top of the vintage — some miss a wow moment.

Perfect for

Fans of aged Jamaican pot-column NY94 who don't mind a sherry sweetness

Less suitable for

Purists who want unfinished 94 NY or dry, funk-forward rum

Wow ! Einfach nur Krass - Seit dem Swell the Spirits Yarmouth bin ich stark auf diese Destillerie fixiert. Anfangs hatte ich nach dem Feedback hier schon Angst, dass er mir nicht schmecken würde und evtl hätte ihm ein anderes Fassfinish besser getan, allerdings finde ich, dass der Sherryeinfluss den Rum nur ein wenig verschließt, was man mit ein paar Tropfen Wasser wieder rückgängog machen kann. Ansonsten ist dieser Rum hier für mich eine extrem weiche und runde Aromenbombe ohne gleichen - dunkle rote Früchte, Tabak, Leder, Propolis, ein worklich sehr langer Abgang - mit diesem Rum hoer kann man wirklich viel spaß haben.

Löste beim Probieren auf der Whiskymesse einen sofortigen Kaufreflex aus. Wunderschön tropisch gereifte Noten mit vollen Aromen und einem ausgeprägten Mundgefühl. Die gut 67% spürt man nicht! Laaang im Abgang. Wahnsinnig gut (trinkbar) und der große gereiftere Bruder vom Flensburg 94er.

Braucht der 94er NY ein Finish ? Sicherlich nicht. Passt es trotzdem ? Auf jeden Fall. Das Sherry Finish bringt noch mal ne leichte, fruchtige Note rein ohne das 94er Profil zu überdecken. Harmoniert beides sehr gut zusammen.

I like this 1994 NYE expression a lot. Sherry cask works very well with this rum and the alcohol is extremely well incorporated. Not your typical Jamaican and in this case I’m totally fine with it. Already looking forward to the moment that I pour the rest of the sample.

An der Nase der schwächste Rum der heute im Cross-Tasting verkosteten NY 1994. Aber am Gaumen spielt der Rum (vermutlich aufgrund des Sherry Finishes) seine Stärke, sprich Rundheit und angenehme Muffigkeit, aus. Wirklich gelungene Abfüllung mit epischem Design (auch wenn das nicht in meine Bewertung einfließt).

Ich finde das Sherry Finish hier gelungen und passend. Habe die Flasche jetzt seit ein paar Wochen offen und nasche oft und gerne 🤤

Ziemlich zugänglich und fast schon süffig durch das Sherry-Finish mit Parallelen zu einigen FS-Abfüllungen. Alkohol gut eingebunden. Ist den Aficionados Abfüllungen sehr ähnlich. Da muss nochmal ein direkter Vergleich her.

Toller 94er New Yarmouth. Das Sherryfinish überlagert in keinster Weise sondern rundet das Profil sehr schön ab. Darüber hinaus hält es die leicht vorherrschende Bitterkeit im Zaum. Der Alkohol ist mit über 67% perfekt eingebunden. Die Zugabe von Wasser kann obligatorisch erfolgen, es verändert das Profil nicht, sondern mildert lediglich die acetonische Schärfe.
