Schotman's Barrel Selection Worthy Park Jamaica Rum Lluidas Vale JMWP 2007

Sipped neat, this 16-year Worthy Park leans fruity and floral: mealy banana, papaya, cream toffee, then orange peel, sandalwood and a light ester funk. At 62% the alcohol is mostly tucked in, though a few tasters catch a soapy or yogurt note late. Give it time and a drop of water. Several call it one of the better WPs they've had.

The community says
  • Ripe tropical fruit
  • Alcohol well integrated
  • But: Soapy floral note

Blindtasting Worthy Park mit: HV WPL (RX272) HV WPM (RX1089) Schotman (RX17173) Wolfgang Klotz (RX21848) TWJ (RX14182) Platz 3 (8.4): TWJ. Die Nase ist ziemlich verschlossen und wirkt am Ende sowohl an der Nase als auch am Gaumen etwas unausgewogen. Leicht bitter am Gaumen und auch im Abgang. Platz 2 (8.6): HV WPL + WK Spirits. Der WK bringt insgesamt mehr Holz und Gewürze mit und mit viel Zeit im Glas auch vermehrt fruchtige Aromen. Auch der HV WPL braucht ein wenig Zeit im Glas, hat dann aber eine schön komplexe Nase. Am Gaumen neben trop. Früchten auch dezent Klebstoff und Ester. Platz 1 (8.7): HV WPM + Schotman. Der Schotman ist wohl der rundeste WP im Crosstasting mit einer schönen Pfirsich Note. Der WPM setzt sich durch rauchige Aromen und Lakritz etwas ab. WP lief bei mir bisher unter dem Radar, zu unrecht. Ich bin echt positiv überrascht und werde in Zukunft wohl auch häufiger mal einen WP im Glas haben :)

Hab mir mal ein Sample auf die Dienstreise mitgenommen 😎. Diesen Schotman hatte ich bereits auf dem 12. GRF in Berlin probiert, heute aber noch mal in Ruhe… Nase: fruchtig, fast schon floral. Zu Beginn stechen die 62% etwas, transportieren aber auch schöne Aromen. Zunächst sind da mehlige Banane mit Papaya, begleitet von ordentlich Sahnetoffee. Diese süßliche Kombi erinnert dann auch an duftende Blüten, Rose oder Hagebuttenblüte. Dahinter kommt trockenes, duftendes Sandelholz. Jetzt kommen doch noch Zitrus-Noten und zurückhaltende Ester durch. Insgesamt unaufdringlich und durchaus rund. 8,1 Gaumen: schon kräftig. Würzig-fruchtig. Zu Beginn intensiv Ingwer, Kümmel und Muskat und schön salzig. Dahinter feine Zitrusfrucht, Mandarine und Kumquat und leicht bittere Orangen- oder Zitronenschale. Bekommt hinten heraus einen leichten Schlag von Seife oder Joghurt. Insgesamt aber ein guter WP. 8,3 Da WP aus meiner Erfahrung sonst nicht gerade der Garant für hochkarätigen Rum ist, gehört der hier schon zu den deutlich besseren.

#4582 26-27.01.2024 Hanse Spirit This was a surprisingly good rum and I will get one for my tastings because I think many will like it. Nose Medium wood, light roasted, fruity, fresh, floral, light ester. Palate Warm, wood, light roasted, fruity, floral, light medicinal. Finish Long, wood, light roasted, orange, light floral, light medicinal. I really like that you can buy 10 cl samples.

Würzig und sehr Reifer Worthy Park. Überraschend gut .😯 Bin nicht der große WP Fan aber dieser hier hat was. Schöne Süße und Fruchtigkeit schmeckt nach Tropischer Reifung. Alkohol Top eingebunden. Werde ihn noch im Mai Tai testen denke das könnte gut funktionieren.

Kann leider mit anderen wirklich guten 2007er Worthy park Vintages nicht mithalten. Erstmal eine spannende floral fruchtige Nase mit Banane, Rose und Sandelholz, geschmacklich dann leider sehr bitter, würzig nach hauptsächlich Muskatnuss, Ingwer, Lakritz und viel Holz und dazu eine leicht seifige florale Note die mir so gar nicht taugt leider und der Alkohol könnte auch besser integriert sein... Von Banane und anderen Früchten keine Spur. Daher leider für mich eher eine Enttäuschung... Schade!

Bottle Market Bremen October 2024. Wow, a really cool Worthy Park. Nose very fruity and lots of esters. On the palate also a lot of esters and tropical fruits. A really tasty Jamaican, you can't go wrong with it.

Einer der besten Worthy Parks, die ich bisher probiert habe. Geradeaus und ehrlich, eindeutige WP-DNA, dafür aber erstaunlich komplex und kraftvoll. Braucht auf jeden Fall etwas Zeit im Glas, um sich zu entfalten.

Spontaneous tasting with FischeJ on the roof terrace of our hotel. First of all, thanks for all the drams and the nice conversation. As for the rum itself, it was a nice surprise for me. I really quite enjoyed it.

Expert review by The Dunder Hut

A really nice cask pick by schotman. He seems careful with his selection and you can taste it here. This is really on the better side of worthy park. Some unusual hints of rosewood and orange peel. Quite appealing

Worthy Park 

Avg Rating 8.0/10 over 360 Rums

Worthy Park is Jamaica's true cane-to-glass estate. Its land was granted in 1670, it runs the island's oldest and most efficient sugar factory, and it makes rum from molasses it produces itself. After falling silent in 1962, the distillery was rebuilt from scratch in 2005 and now bottles some of the most respected modern estate rum in the Caribbean.
