New Yarmouth Rumclub Private Selection Ed. 49 2020

Cookie dough, marzipan and glue lead here, with pineapple and banana behind — classic New Yarmouth ester funk pushed by a virgin oak cask that adds young wood, spice and a bit of grippy tannin. At 62.6% it drinks hot and wild neat; most tasters found it tames beautifully in a Mai Tai. Reads dry and intense, older than its four years.

Wild, funky New Yarmouth, great in a Mai Tai Loved for its funky ester-and-marzipan New Yarmouth character and surprising virgin-oak maturity. The recurring catch: young, wild and noticeably alcoholic neat, so many reach for the Mai Tai.

Basically delicious New Yarmouth with lots of tropical fermented fruit, cookie dough and plenty of funk and glue. For me, however, the virgin oak is definitely a little too dominant and adds too much tannin and a certain sharpness and acidity that I find rather annoying. However, I can really imagine it in a Mai tai.

Würzige Ester, so würde ich den Rum beschreiben. Das Virgin Oak hat hervorragende Arbeit geleistet, was wirklich hervorzuheben ist, denn die Lagerung in einem solchen Fass kann auch schnell fürchterlich schiefgehen. Hier aber ist meines Erachtens genau zum richtigen Zeitpunkt abgefüllt worden. Auch im Mai Tai zusammen mit dem Red Barrel äußerst lecker. Für mich die positive Überraschung des Präsentationsabends von Ed. 49 und 50 des Rumclubs. Ich prophezeie: Der Rum wird weggehen wie warme Semmeln (German saying). Update 2025-02-27: Nochmals in Ruhe verkostet und den ersten Eindruck vor drei Monaten bestätigt. Toller Rum!

Wieder einmal hat RC ordentlich abgeliefert! Chapeau! Ein toller Rum, wo das Virgin Oak Fass zeigt was es kann! Sehr gut zum Mixen in Cocktails (MaiTai 😎🤪). Klarerweise auch pur geniesbar, jedoch kein Easy sipper 😉😬

Edit: von mal zu mal schmeckt er mir im MaiTai besser. Nach oben korrigiert So endlich doch mal das Sample verkostet. Ja es ist ein New Yarmouth nicht zu leugnen. Jedoch sehr jung, wild und alkoholisch. Im Nachhinein betrachtet ein wenig zu überbewertet für mich. Pur sehr ungestüm. Als Mixer ganz nice, aber wenn man den Preis auf 0,7l hochrechnet eher Mittelfeld und nicht der Mega Schnapper

Young wild New Yarmouth... My expectations weren't really all that high, so I'm all the more surprised. Glue, tropical fruits, lots of marzipan and yet also a portion of woodiness. A little too alcoholic on its own, but that's probably due to its young age. In May Tai a real stunner, very fruity and biscuity, super tasty.

For this price, it's awesome! Ages much older and more mature than the four years. I'm not the biggest Virgin Oak fan, but this was great.

8.4/10

8,5:On the nose, the first impression we get are esters and glue, perhaps polish, then fruits come in with tropical pineapple, banana and roasted wood notes like chocolate and caramel. On aeration, the fruits are also yellow bourbon, mango and a hint of coconut.The wood gives us spices and pastry, perhaps a hint of cookie dough. 8,4:On the palate, the attack is funky, estery with glue, maybe varnish and tropical fruits like mango, banana, yellow fruits and bergamot, a bit alcoholic. The wood is roasted with pastry, marzipan, perhaps cookie dough, spicy with vanilla, baking spices, a bit salty.Fruits become candied after resting and dried with apricots, raisins, a molasses herbaceous.There is also a hint of coconut. 8,4:The finish is long, dry with roasted wood notes, tropical, yellow fruits and spicy..
