Aroma visualization from community tastings
Worthy Park S.B.S Jamaica 2005
Worthy Park fans who want fruit over big funk will click with this one. Overripe banana, apple and pineapple lead, with a light glue note, black tea, and toasted oak turning to butterscotch and leather. At 58.6% the alcohol sits well; a drop of water opens it up. Several tasters call it a "solider Sipper" that leans a touch one-dimensional for a top score.
The community says- Overripe banana
- Well-integrated alcohol
- But: Slightly one-dimensional

How does Worthy Park S.B.S Jamaica 2005 taste?

Fruity Worthy Park, banana-led, light funk Well-liked Worthy Park: creamy, fruity, overripe banana with only light ester and glue. Most enjoy it neat; a few find it a bit one-note and missing deeper richness.

8,9:On the nose, esters and glue, funky, minty, grassy molasses, fresh with tea, pineapple, banana and apple, roasted wood notes like butterscotch, cocoa, vanilla, smoky, dirty, bump into our nosetrils. On aeration, molasses is flowery, fruits fermented, rubber and metallic patina arise, anise, cinnamon and pastry. 9:On the palate, the attack is delicious, creamy and round with fermented, overripe banana, red and citrus fruits, apple, dairy notes, toasted oak notes like caramel, pastry, nuts, spicy with allspice, smoky, dirty, some rubber is obvious, as molasses is grassy, herbaceous, flowery, fresh with tea, vegetal with olive, earthy with tobacco. 8,9:The finish is long, dry&tannic, dirty, with notes from palate lingering on. Edit:8.8.26

Solider Worthy Park, gelbe Früchte, kaum Ester, etwas Marzipan. Alkohol könnte einen Tick besser eingebunden sein. An den 2006er WPM kommt er nicht heran, der für mich persönlich die Referenz in Sachen Worthy Park ist. Im Ergebnis: Solider Sipper.
Review by Dr.Django
Very tasty easy sipper. Pleasant on the palate with light floral and hay aromas, accompanied by bright fruits, especially honeydew melon. Towards the finish, it becomes a bit woodier and more astringent. The S.B.S Worthy Parks are all good across the board.

This weekend was very busy because I've been building a new shelf system for my 250+ bottles so my Saturday and Sunday tastings haven't been added :-) This is a nice rum and some may prefer a drop or two of water to really enjoy it
Review by Timo Groeger
Gutes Teil soweit. Ist halt holzig und floral zugleich in der Nase. Klebstoff ist zusätzlich erkennbar. Am Gaumen ist er dann sehr fruchtig dank der überreifen Banane. Etwas Leder ist auch noch erkennbar.
Review by Jussi Piirainen
Edit: Added a tasting photo. On the nose: Woody, floral, light tobacco, black tea, light esters, light glue, apples and light olives Taste: Fruity notes with tobacco and leathers up front. Then the fruity notes evolve to overripe pineapples, apples with spices. Creamy mouthfell. The alcohol is present but still integrated well. Finish: Woody, smoky, herbal. Little bit of dirt on mouthfell. Medium finish. Good fruity rum with good notes, but misses deep rich notes in order to receive higher score
Review by Skyfly
Ein wirklich guter Worthy Park, mit Banane, Apfel, Klebstoff und Tee in der Nase. Im Gaumen wieder überreife Banane und Apfel, dazu Milchschokolade, getostetet Holz und Leder. Im Abgang sehr süß. Alkohol super eingebunden
Review by ThreeH
Schönes Gelb-Gold. Die Nase gelbfruchtig, Banane, leicht Ananas. Angenehm süsslicher Beiklang, insgesamt recht animierend. Der Gaumen bietet dieselbe Palette mit zusätzlicher Fass-Note. Alles rund und schön zu trinken. Vielleicht etwas zu eindimensional für eine Top-Bewertung. Der Abgang dann stärker auf der Eichen-Note. Das leere Glas mit einer leckeren Butterscotch-Aromatik.
