Review by Martin Ekrt
Jasně znatelná vůně Worthy Park. Chairman tam nepoznám, ale blend voní opravdu zajímavě. V chuti také vynikne hlavně WP, ale St.Lucie bych řekl přidala extra technické tóny. Závěr banánový s hodně vanilkovou krémovou zmrzlinou.
Review by Leo Krüper
Sehr süß, aber auf angenehme dezente Weise ohne künstlich zu wirken. Daneben kaum weitere Aromen. Schöner kleiner Blend.
Review by Basti
Fair evaluation. Tasted as part of the S.B.S. tasting. Exciting blend. The nose is dominated by fruity notes, especially banana, plus vanilla and caramel. A pleasant sweetness on the palate. I liked it very much.
Review by DomM
In the nose I‘d say we are looking at Worthy Park, which is dominating the profile. There are some additional chocolate and caramel notes which might come from the Chairman’s component. However for me those are complementing rather than taking center stage. On the palate, both components of the blend act more as equals. I get a lot of cacoa and chocolate notes as well as toffee and some sweetness. There are still some WP fruits and spices. Alcohol isn’t perfectly integrated in the mix but reasonably for the ABV level. All in all I quite like it. Not the most complex blend but it gives a nice feel of „chocolate banana“ throughout the tasting.

#5195 02.04.2025 Running through some samples at home. Nose Light wood, faint roasted, light cinnamon, light pineapple, faint floral, berries, spice. Palate Round, balanced, fruits, light wood, faint smoke, spice, light tannins, raisin, light cherry, faint floral. Finish Medium to long, light dry, fruits, wood, light tannins, cinnamon, dried fruit. Empty glass Vanilla, faint chocolate, light earthy, light berries. Needs to rest for a while to really open up properly or you add a few drops of water.
Review by cigares
A rum tasted at the GRF in 2024, S.B.S. Masterclass. A nose of tropical fruit with caramel and young wood. The palate is very (too?) sweet, but the fruit is there too. The finish is short and sweet. A cross between a WP (Worthy Park) and a SLD (Santa Lucia), rather weak in flavor and sweet but interesting nonetheless.
Review by Richard Krupa
Ve vůni i chuti ovoce a dřevo, typická jamajská, poměrně nečekaně nasládlá chuť
Review by Johannes
Beautiful worthy park, barely recognizable Lucia
Review by zabo
Unfortunately I missed it at the GRF because S.B.S didn't have enough bottles, so I got myself a sample. Interesting blend that doesn't really pick me up personally, nice to have tried.
Review by Dr.Django
Ein guter easy Sipper. Süß mit kandierten Früchten und Karamell. Jamaica low Ester ist hier schon rauszuschmecken, auf St. Lucia als Blendpartner wäre ich wohl nicht gekommen. Der Alkohol ist gut integriert.
