Brühler Whiskyhaus Rumbastic Jamaica 2004
Most people land in the same place: a likable, easy-sipping Jamaican that drinks more like a bourbon than a funk bomb. Malt and vanilla on the nose, then young banana, milk chocolate and a bit of chocolate fudge. Several tasters peg it as a Worthy Park. The main gripe is the alcohol not feeling fully tucked in, and one reviewer hated a sweet-wine note that flattened it for them.
- Malty bourbon nose
- Easy sipping
- Banana and fudge

How does Brühler Whiskyhaus Rumbastic Jamaica 2004 taste?
Aggregated from 13 community reviews.
Easy bourbon-leaning Jamaican, banana and vanilla Liked by most as a rounded, bourbon-leaning Jamaican at a comfortable strength. The catch: the alcohol isn't fully integrated, and one taster found a sweet-wine finish ruined it entirely.

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.
