Review by Stefan Persson
Overall an OK Jamaican rum but that lacks the expected funkiness, probably because of the low ABV. I tasted it at the 1423 stand during the Stockholm Beer & Spirits Fair 2023. This Jamaican rum is a blend of copper pot distilled molasses based rums that have been aged between 4 and 12 years in American white oak ex-bourbon barrels.
Review by Cédric Meyers
We're clearly on Jamaica's markers. Wow, it's good. It's sweet, a little honeyed.
Review by Lutz Lungershausen
07.2024 First impression: wow, delicious Jamaica! Nose: very fruity and aromatic, esters, party Palate: now it gets serious and strong but still light, exciting contrast to the first impression Finish: short and crisp Overall impression: I really like it, a little light for straight sipping but okay, shows its strengths in fruity mixers: brings alcoholic strength, light esters and subtle spiciness. I have therefore increased my original rating from 7.0 to 7.3. The very small bottle in the photo was a gift on the tour of Worthy Park Distillery ... I couldn't resist the merchandising items (if you're ever in Lluidas Vale 😉) 02.2023 I bought the 200ml flask in Jamaica and found it great as an energizer for fruit juices

Nie zle za tú cenu, funky len trochu, trochu esterov, jednoduchšie
Review by TheJackDrop
Vanilla and orange fruit, not bad but very young. To sum up, my tasting notes: Nose: Banana On the palate: Tropical fruit, orange. I'm raising the note a little because it's not bad.

Review by TheRhumhoe
A well-crafted Worthy Park from the permanent range, with a smooth Jamaican rum DNA. The nose is very fruity (banana, pineapple, pear, very ripe exotic fruits) and has a reasonable dose of funk with the esters. Vanilla and cinnamon add some spice to this simple, clean and precise profile. The attack on the palate is soft and supple. Despite dilution, the funk has been preserved, with its fermentative and phenolic aromas and typical fruity notes (pineapple, banana, orange and pear). Certainly not the most complex of rums, but a good drinker. The finish is of decent length. It returns to spicy woodiness, with a few roasted notes intermingling with fruit and esters. A pleasant rum, accessible to neophytes both in terms of taste and price.

Nothing that I personally need.... thin and somehow meaningless.
Review by Martin Ekrt
I přes velké ředění je krásně voňavý, plný ovoce. Teď ho ochutnavám druhým vzorkem a je to pro mě pořád velké překvapení jako napoprvé. Strašně mě baví, když objevím rum, který i přes low end cenu a ředění nabídne hodně zábavy. Přesně tohle je pro mě WP Select. edit: mírná korekce dolů, ty volty tomu prostě chybí
Review by Golden Hind
Entfaltet sein volles Potenzial für uns eindeutig in den Cocktails.
Review by Johannes
The taste is actually not bad, but the alcohol is not well integrated despite the dilution.
Review by Marcel Pavelka
Sharper body. One round at the end. Pitelnoat rather worse.
Review by Vincent D
Tasted for the principle. It's not (by far) the best this distillery has to offer. But perhaps it can be a gateway to Jamaican esters without the extreme side. Not convinced.
Review by Jo Hoo
Except for an ester smell, little tasty flavors for me.
Review by Rumpalumpa
Pretty unspectacular rum. Neither an interesting distillate, for example with strong esters, nor a maturation that would add another level. A few fruity esters are already present, of course.
