The Distilia New Yarmouth 1994 Cask #435089 "The Golden Age of Piracy Rogers" is a remarkable rum from Jamaica, aged for 27 years and bottled in 2022. With only 138 bottles produced, this limited edition stands out with its impressive ABV of 67.1%. Crafted by the New Yarmouth distillery and presented by the Distilia brand, it brings a unique and sophisticated experience to rum enthusiasts.
On the nose, this rum is a delightful blend of coconut, chocolate/cacao, and patisserie notes. Caramelized sweetness, soft spices, and a hint of roasted almond add depth, while a touch of exotic fruits and leather wood complete this intricate aromatic tapestry. The integration of wood is flawless, making it as complex as it is delicious, and as intense as it is elegant.
When tasted, the rum reveals a warm and oily palate. You'll discover a well-balanced combination of wood, spices, and very light leather. The salted caramel candy flavor is predominant, complemented by hints of cocoa, vanilla, oak, and a fine minerality. Tropical fruit notes add an entertaining layer to the flavor profile without dominating the scene. Letting it rest for a while allows the flavors to unfold fully and mellows the high ABV.
The finish is long-lasting and satisfying, with notes of dried fruit, bitter orange, oak, vanilla, and caramel. A subtle salty hint adds a unique twist to the aftertaste, making the entire experience both captivating and memorable. This is a well-balanced rum with no off notes, no bitterness, and a pleasant sweetness. With a nose score of 91, taste score of 92, and aftertaste score of 92, it achieves an overall impressive score of 92 points.
This rum is special due to its age of 27 years, its high ABV of 67.1%, and its limited production of only 138 bottles. It offers a complex and well-balanced flavor profile.
For the best experience, let the rum rest for a while to release all its flavors and to mellow the high ABV. This allows you to fully appreciate its complex profile.
Key tasting notes include caramelized sweetness, soft spices, tropical fruits, salted caramel candy, cocoa, vanilla, and a subtle salty finish.
As a rum enthusiast, I find the Distilia New Yarmouth 1994 Cask #435089 truly exceptional. The complex interplay of salted caramel, fine spices, and tropical fruits makes each sip an experience to savor. The long finish with subtle salty notes and caramel sweetness is captivating. The high ABV is remarkably well-integrated, allowing the rum's intricate flavors to shine. This limited edition is a highlight among the 1994 New Yarmouth releases and a must-try for collectors and connoisseurs alike.
