Best sipped neat, this is a classic Worthy Park pot-still Jamaican — one member says it "smells like Jelly Banans with chocolate," and that ripe banana carries onto the palate alongside young wood, pepper and a bit of milk chocolate. It's a low-ester WP: dry and slightly astringent rather than a funk bomb. A couple of tasters found it too bitter and sour on the finish.
The community says- Ripe banana note
- Well-integrated alcohol
- Keep in mind: Bitter finish

How does Worthy Park S.B.S Jamaica WPL 2009 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Dry, banana-driven low-ester Jamaican Most call it a good, typical Worthy Park — banana-forward, dry and spicy with well-tucked alcohol. A few find it too bitter and astringent, and one felt the cask went a little off.

Second tasting: hmm, is quite pale compared to others (-3) For me, this is one of the top rums from the Rum Depot S.B.S Tasting 2022. The nose starts fresh and super fruity, especially with the bananas so typical of Worthy Park. These really come into their own on the palate. The finish is dominated by the influence of the barrel. A great Jamaican! I would have liked it to be even more intense, but still a very good rum!

Bitter orange, pineapple chutney cask and lots of spice. Overall too bitter and too sour for me. I wonder what might have gone wrong with the cask here or if there was a second filling of the cask...
Review by zabo
Tasted again with DomM in the Flower of Hawaii. Still a good rum and the best of those tasted that evening. Tasted at Serge's during Franconian Tasting goes Tiki A good Worthy Park representative. A positive surprise, very pleasant in taste. Everything you expect from Worthy Park is also in the glass here. Solid rum.
Review by Eric Frechin
Tasted blind. Slight hesitation on the nose between Jamaican and Fijian. It's the slightly unripe banana side that made me lean towards Worthy Park. The woodiness is light, the spices are soft: vanilla and tonka. A quality that holds up.
Review by Johannes
Good Worthy Park, which is more on the dry, astringent side.
Review by Serge
Tasty low ester Jamaican and pleasantly dry for a WP.
Review by Tim
Very good rum, similar or just as good as other well-known Worthy Park rums. A typical Jamaica rum, though it doesn't have a high-ester profile, but instead that musty, furry feeling in the mouth. The price should also be reasonable.
Review by Christian Rudt
Came in the tasting after the Central Americans and I remembered it much better than now. It remains a decent WPL, somewhat dry and astringent, but already nice to sip.
Review by Andi
Tropical fruits meet young wood, a really great drop.
Review by PeterPapp
Smells like Jelly Banans with chocolate. In a really good way. Very tasty
Review by Lot-NAS
Not bad, but nothing special either - pretty generic and forgettable to me. Also a Little too bitter on palate and finish for my liking.
Review by Schnubbii
