New Yarmouth casks are very rare in the United States and Parhelia’s two New Yarmouth casks are generally scarce not only in the United States, but Europe as well. New Yarmouth is probably one of the most enigmatic distilleries in the rum world and certainly the most secretive in Jamaica, adding mystery to our spirit beyond the fact that it was produced on a pot still.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003eIn keeping with our goal of maximum transparency, Parhelia Spirits had the general congener and specific ester levels measured at a spirits laboratory in winter 2026, attached \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.parheliaspirits.com\/s\/ParheliaSpirits_TwoSamples_26-0162-0163_GC02_HigherAlcoholsEsters-4.pdf\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/dogfish-bird-ekzl.squarespace.com\/s\/ParheliaSpirits_TwoSamples_26-0162-0163_GC02_HigherAlcoholsEsters-3.pdf\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" title=\"https:\/\/dogfish-bird-ekzl.squarespace.com\/s\/ParheliaSpirits_TwoSamples_26-0162-0163_GC02_HigherAlcoholsEsters-3.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e.\u003c\/a\u003e We understand that Jamaica rum lovers often like more precise measurements of the intensity of certain flavors, and we hoped to furnish as much data as possible. For those rum aficionados seeking a punchy spirit, note that this Hugh Murdoch cask had 1306 g\/HLPA of congeners, including 552 g\/HLPA of ethyl acetate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStrawberry\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003epineapple\u003c\/strong\u003e on the nose immediately differentiate this higher-ester Jamaica rum from other similar rums from the island, which often carry more banana-forward scents.

Unlike many other rums, the finish on this Jamaica cask carries most of the brighter distillate notes rather than the lower, earthier cask-forward notes. This drinks well below its 68.4% ABV so savor slowly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWe are pre-selling casks 4-7 from 9\/8\/26 to 9\/17\/26 and offering \u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e10% off of all Parhelia products\u003c\/span\u003e (including in-stock rums from cask 1 and 3) during the pre-sale.  Discounts will apply automatically.  The goods should be arriving to the store on Friday 9\/18 for collection or shipping over the following weekend or later.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Raising Glasses","offers":[{"title":"700ml","offer_id":48085377417379,"sku":"ParheliaCask5NYE.HM","price":109.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0613\/4104\/0803\/files\/Parhelia5.jpg?v=1788553652","url":"https:\/\/cellar.com\/products\/parhelia-cask-5-new-yarmouth-hugh-murdoch-rum-68-4-2019-700ml","provider":"Cellar.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
