Brühler Whiskyhaus Rumbastic Jamaica 2004
Most tasters land on "good, not a stunner" — a mellow, bourbon-forward Jamaican that several peg as a Worthy Park. The nose fools you into thinking whisky: malt, vanilla, bourbon. On the palate you get young banana, more vanilla and a bit of chocolate fudge. At cask strength the alcohol reads a touch hot and not fully knit in. Easy sipping over analysis.

How does Brühler Whiskyhaus Rumbastic Jamaica 2004 taste?
Aggregated from 13 community reviews.
Mellow, bourbon-forward Jamaican pot still A well-liked everyday pot-still Jamaican, marked down mainly for slightly unintegrated heat. One lone reviewer hated a sweet-wine finish, but the crowd calls it round and balanced.

Review by Alex1981
Surprisingly good! Very malty & bourbony on the nose, initially thought I was smelling a whisky. Vanilla, young Bananas and some chocolate fudge on the palate. Unfortunately the alcohol ist not very well integrated which keeps it from a higher score.
Review by Johnny Rumcask
Irgendein widerliches Süßwein-Finish plättet das Destillat fast vollständig. Widerlich.
Review by Johannes
I like it a lot! Would have to be a Worthy Park. Very nice round and balanced.
Review by Thunderbird
Wahrscheinlich ein WP, in angenehmer Trinkstärke. Eine gelungene Abfüllung ohne Höhen und Tiefen, wie sagt man so schön: Passt 👍🏻
Review by Leo Tomczak
Schöner easy-sipping Worthy Park. Mir leider etwas zu teuer.
Review by Serge
Neat WP with the typical markers (banana, spices, milk chocolate) and a lot of rum for the money. Strong bourbon impact. The 19 tropical years I do not quite believe. Possibly rather 19 years with a part tropical?
Review by DomM
Very nice quality for the price. More on the mellow side and quite bourbon forwards.
Review by zabo
Für 17 Jahre tropisch für den Preis ist er schon echt o.k. Zwar kein absoluter Kracher, aber als Starter für einen netten Abend durchaus brauchbar.
