How does The Duchess Worthy Park High Ester WPH 2015 taste?
Aggregated from 7 community reviews.
Punchy high-ester Worthy Park Solid high-ester Worthy Park: intense glue and tropical fruit funk, light wood and herbs, good value, but with noticeably sharp alcohol and a profile some find more mixer than sipper.
Fans of high-ester Jamaican funk who enjoy bold, gluey/tropical profiles at full proof and don’t mind some rough edges, especially those mixing Mai Tais or tiki-style cocktails.
Beginners, anyone sensitive to high ABV or sharp alcohol, and drinkers looking for a smooth, sweet, easy-sipping Jamaican rum.

Naja so ein wirklicher Bringer ist er nun wahrlich nicht. Nase ist schön von Klebstoff geprägt. Der Alkohol ist nicht wirklich perfekt eingebunden. Den Rest habe ich in der Cola versenkt, dort macht er aber eine ordentliche Figur.
Review by Alexander Rasch
On the positive side, the bottle was emptied quickly, as the rum in the Cuba Libre is absolutely convincing and has a great flavor. Especially in combination with a darker rum. Otherwise rather standard and forgettable. Quite nice on the nose, but rather boring on the palate. For me, a born mixer.
Review by Nik the spirit-ed
In der Nase dominieren Anfangs chemische Noten, Kleber und Putzmittel. Nach und nach kommt die Frucht immer mehr in den Vordergrund, bis schließlich die Frucht die Dominanz übernimmt. Geschmacklich überzeugt eine sehr gelungene Balance aus Frucht, Funk und leichten Holznoten. Für das Maß an Funk ist er überraschend rund. Es kann passieren, dass man nach einem ausgedehnten High-Ester-Rum-Tasting bei ihm hängen bleibt.

Buds and Barrels 16/02/2025 Lots of glue in the nose Then not that interesting... Alcohol could be better integrated. But at this price its still bang for buck!
