About New Yarmouth

New Yarmouth is a whisky distillery. New Yarmouth 1994 26 Year Old Thompson Bros is an age-stated bottling at 26 years old, distilled in 1994.

What drives this bottle's value

  • Single vintage

    Distilled in a single year (1994), so the available batch is inherently finite.

  • Considerable age

    A 26-year age statement reflects long maturation and the small surviving volume that implies — older stock is scarcer.

These are scarcity and demand signals drawn from the bottle's own attributes — they describe the bottle, not a prediction of future price. Not investment advice.
