Review by Boletus
On the nose, almost refreshingly fresh and fruity, with the oak already making itself noticed in the background. The fruity impression continues on the palate at first, but as it progresses, the rum increasingly turns towards the woody side, resulting in a dry and rather fruit-light finish. A fairly complex and really nice, tropically aged Worthy Park!
Review by Clément Boetto🤤🇫🇷
Very good worthy Park, for me better balanced and a little more greedy than the WPM 2006 from velier.
Review by Joachim Guger
Typical Worthy Park profile. A great Jamaican to my taste. Lots of solvent and glue. Unripe and ripe bananas. Dried fruit, not too many esters, complex and intense. Great PLV.
Review by Jakob
An elegant drop, which the tropical maturation suits very well. Wonderful vanilla sweetness from the oak barrel, which successfully embeds the typical Worthy Park profile. The result is a comparatively sweet Worthy Park release, to which I would like to give the attribute "PLV highlight" - looking out from 2022, this is in any case a bottling at a high level, where I do not understand why it is still available well after the year of issue.
Review by Tim
Rounded Jamaican nose, very harmonious and complex at the same time. Fruity, spicy, floral, caramel and toasty. Very good drinking strength, which provides a nice density of flavors. A highlight for me is the finish! Here there is a very intense vanilla or herbal note, which combines elegantly with spices and caramel. From Worthy Park there are some exceptional bottlings at a good price - this is one of them.
Review by Mike H.
82 points. This is the perfect rum for guests who have never tasted unsweetened rum, an easy sipper that has enough complexity and depth to tickle the interest of most beginners. The flavor profile is well balanced with wood, spices, fruit, vanilla and tobacco.
Review by LukaŽiga
8,6:On the nose, glue, oaky wood notes with nuts, anise, vanilla, baking spices, turning into roasted with baked apple, flowery and herbaceous molasses, citrus fruits like grapefruit, bump into our nosetrils. On aeration, tropical fruits like banana, arise, the molasses is sweet with honey, earthy with hints of peat, roasted wood brings caramelized tones, pastry, leather and smokiness. 8,7:On the palate, the attack is intense, dry with oak, spicy with vanilla, fruity with banana, later citrus fruits, cherries, perhaps apples, as roasted wood notes balance intensity with butterscotch, pastry, dark chocolate and roasted nuts, slightly smoky, salty, as the molasses is herbaceous, earthy with tobacco, flowery, vegetal with black tea. 8,6:The finish is long, dry, as roasted wood notes, spicy, smoky, oaky, pair tropical, citrus fruits and grassy, herbaceous molasses with hints of licorice. Edit:22.3.26
Review by Timo Groeger
Honestly, a really tasty rum, can only recommend it. Really tasty this nasty thing 😉 Has beautiful tropical fruit notes on the nose. The same on the palate. Really tasty, recommendation is out :-)
Review by Eric Frechin
Un Jamaïcain qui change des rhums funky et autres high esters. J ai aussi trouvé le fruité moins présent que d autres Worthy. Ce rhum gagne en rondeur avec un boisé fondu , du caramel, Tabac, sucre brun . A noter que je n ai pas trouvé la pomme que je reconnais souvent avec cette marque.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
This is a wonderful bottle of rum especially if you look at the price tag. Fruity from nose to finish. The barrel is also present with smoke on the palate, which I really like. Very well balanced rum.
Review by Aussierumfan
A lovely tropically aged rum from Worthy Park, on the nose it's fruity and has some wood coming though. Has a nice sweetness with lots of vanilla on the palate and is quite fruity as well. great complexity with a long finish.
Review by F.L.O.
Vanilla, banana and much more. Mixed with wood and well-integrated alcohol - not perfect, but goes well with the rough edges. A perennial classic from my rum cabinet for years.
Review by Sebastian Kornett
Great round worthy park. Personally, a little too expensive for the price. Prefer the oloroso or the Quat vin, because the price enjoyment ratio is right.
Review by tojo
The WP is nice to drink on a warm summer evening. Olfactory and flavor notes with emphasis on fruit, vanilla, marzipan, baking spices. Nice, mild finish. Top rum!
Review by Djehey
Bottle just opened. The rum is still quite closed. Full-bodied palate with banana, evolving on a rather dry, woody profile. Tobacco and a few olive pits diversify the palate. A touch of pepper and ginger enhance the whole. I'm curious to see what it will do with a little oxidation.
