The Whisky Jury New Yarmouth The Many Face Of Rum 2009
People already into Jamaican pot-still funk are the right crowd here. Expect glue and ester up front, ripe banana and mango, a whiff of furniture wax, plus cookie dough and marzipan. Oily on the tongue, faintly sweet from caramel, with a very long finish. Give it half an hour to breathe — the alcohol shows early and settles nicely. One taster even caught a brief eucalyptus flash.

#6637 10.04.2026 Some late evening samples that are not Dictador. Full power on Spotify with Armin van Buuren and Nishra. This is a pretty good release with a decent price tag to go with it. The nose is intense and fruity with banana, overripe fruits, light mint, glue, ester and light olive. The palate is warm and oily with light wood, mint, citrus, olive, salt, ester and spice. The finish is extremely long and warm with light roasted wood, ester, overripe fruits, mango and light mint.

Ein leider wenig komplexer New Yarmouth: die sauren fruchtigen Noten treten in den Hintergrund, holzige Noten dominieren das Geschmacksprofil. Deutlich adstringierend. Gerade die jüngeren CDI Abfüllungen sind deutlich besser. Alles in allem daher solide, aber nicht mehr.
Review by SaibotZtar
Solid and tasty, that's how I'd put it, short and sweet. Typical New Yarmouth 2009... fruity, marzipan, and plenty of funk, no surprises, nothing new but tasty. In the Mai Tai, it delivers well with nice sweetness, lots of marzipan and fruit.
Review by zabo
Im Vergleich heute mal ein Klassiker, der Rum Artesanal New Yarmouth first Edition von 2009 (sehr sehr lecker) gegen den neuen The Whisky Jury. Nachdem der TWJ in der bauchigen Flasche mich nicht wirklich überzeugt hat, sind hier bei der neuen Abfüllung in der längliche Flasche die Unterschiede verschwindend gering.
Review by DomM
Intense on the nose with cookies and some (rotting) fruits. Very nice and intense New Yarmouth profile on the palate. Strong on cookie notes with some tropical fruits and vanilla. Smooth sweetness and silky mouthfeel.
Review by Master P
Eine kräftige Basis, aber nicht übermäßig esterlastig, obwohl diese Ester im Hintergrund durchaus präsent bleiben. Schön ist auch der Hauch von Bohnerwachs, vor allem im Duft. Gute Balance zwischen viel Frucht, Holz und Estern. Wenn man ihn etwas stehen lässt, tritt das Zuckerrohr stärker in den Vordergrund. Honig und Röstaromen sind auch dabei.
Review by Banana Joe
Ein schöner New Yarmouth aus 2009, der aber nicht im ganz oberen Regal mitspielen kann. Dafür hat er mir zu viele Ecken und Kanten und der Alkohol hätte etwas besser eingebunden sein können. Aber alles in allem ein schöner Rum.
Review by Johannes
Spannend! Schmeckt, als ob er längere Zeit tropisch gereift wurde. Dadurch hat er aber deutlich Ester verloren. Eher auf der holzigen Seite und low Ester.
Review by Michael Schou
#1732 27-02-2026 - Rate 8.4 The Whisky Jury New Yarmouth 2005, is a better rum to me. All the graft CDI New Yarmouth’s are also from 2005. I like that year better then 2009. There are more power in the 2005. More untamed and wild. The 2009 is a bit more subtle and smooth.
Review by Jorron
Fruitig, ik heb ervan genoten. Stevige basis, maar niet extreem in esters, alhoewel die esters op de achtergrond wel aanwezig blijven. Mooi ook is de zweem van boenwas, vooral in geur. Goede balans tussen veel fruit, hout en esters. Als je hem even laat staan, treedt het suikerriet meer op de voorgrond. Lekker!
Review by Arya_NBV
Richt nach uhu und frisch. Ältere Ananas.ölige Textur auf der Zunge. Keine esterbombe. Aber schon klar Jamaica. Milder, mittellanger Abgang. Kakao Nachgeschmack. Bin froh, dass ich zwei habe, werde aber nicht nachkaufen. Sicher in der oberen Kategorie einzuordnen, aber keine „Erleuchtung“. Gewinnt noch mit Atmen. Gewinnt mollige Wärme und Körper nach etwas in der Hand halten/waerme. Trotz 57 % nicht scharf.
Review by Julian Lugrin
Solvant mais aussi fruité et un épointe saline!
Review by Skyfly
Klassischer 2009er New Yarmouth der alle typischen Marker mitbringt. Vollumfänglich überzeugen und ganz oben mitspielen kann er jedoch nicht, da man von Nase bis Abgang den Alkohol herausschmecken kann.
