Review by Mirko Frosini 🇮🇪
The alcoholic part is not harmonious with the rest.
Review by Godspeed
Sometimes things get better about 6-9 months after opened, sometimes they don’t. This is a case of the latter. UPDATE in comparison with 2013 release: The 2013 pot still release is far better than this one. The column still distillation on this one leaves an unfinished, sharp taste with a gluey aftertaste. It feels like it should have spent at least 3 more years in the barrel. This is remarkable considering this actually has more tropical aging than the 2013 pot still version, which just goes to show what a tremendous difference the distillation does to the flavor. I greatly enjoyed comparing these two from wp side by side but trust me, the pot still 2013 version is the one to get.
Review by Jakob
Solid Worthy Park, but a few more years of barrel aging would not have hurt. Still seems a bit impetuous, even if the fruity freshness and the spice are positive to note. However, it lacks a counterbalance by somewhat heavier notes from the wood and sweetness, which would have given the rum a more pleasant balance. Here I would have been interested in the result after a little more storage time or but with a finish from a sweet wine barrel. So bleibts for me a Worthy Park in the rear part of the known to me field of participants.

Agréable au nez et bien fumé en bouche, un bon rhum qui se boit tout seul dans la globalité.
Review by Renato
Very fruity on the nose and very vegetal on the palate.Not very spicy.Lacks a little personality.
Review by abaker-rum
I could smell this rum as soon as the bartender put it on the bar. It has a classic Jamaican funk on the nose with overripe tropical fruits and fusel oils. This rum has a bite to it with a really good rounded out finish that leaves a mix of banana and pineapple in your mouth.
Review by Fasen
Worthy Park well balanced but I find that the column distillation takes away some of the body!

Solider Rum mit einem guten PLV
Review by Enriko Špinler
I love Jamaica, I love technical rums and I love Transcontinental (if my wife were to read this she would not be happy). Since I'm drunk on sweet rums, I'm looking for something different, wild, sticky - exactly what others don't like. This TCRL didn't beat my favorite TCRL Jamaica 2016, but I still get what I need. Aroma - esters, chocolate, spices, glue, varnish, pineapple Taste - spicy, technical, subtle hint of fruit Finish - medium long, warm and rewards you with tropical fruits at the end (I miss a little more wild jamaica there) This rum has been criticized for things that I agree with, but as a fan of TCRL I have to give it 8/10 (if I were objective, it deserves 7 points).
Review by Filip Šikula
Ve vůni staré známé a přijemné lepidlo, banán, anananas a estery. V chuti by mu jednoznačně ještě slušelo pár let na sudu, sneslo by to lepší integraci alkoholu, ale je to příjemný esterový rum s ceno kolema 50€ bych řekl že v pořádku.
Review by Anonymous
Awesome 5yo for 50€ circa. Better than 2012.
Review by Rumclub Latvia
Feels young spirit, but good
Review by Luca
Junger und wilder WP. Der Alkohol ist schon recht deutlich, typische WP Noten sind klar erkennbar. Mir schmeckt er recht gut und kann ihn als Einsteigerrum nur empfehlen.
