Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
Very think and tasty. Probably tropically aged. My guess its a Worthy Park.
Review by m8375e
very bold and fun WP, supposedly from Sauternes cask.
Review by Jack M
Nose is funky with lots of tropical fruits and crème brûlée. The palate brings the same funk, fruits, sweet, wood, chocolate and maybe medicinal notes. Medium finish which combines a sweetness and tannins. It punches above it’s weight to my mind and is great value.
Review by Rum, jazz and cigars
At first this one was troubeling for me. I couldn't really place it. My taste for jamaican rum isn't very developed jet, so I compared it against 2 other high proof, young, jamaican rums I had laying around; Smith & Cross and Le Liquoriste Single Estate Jamaica rum 2013. It's much less funky on the nose and much darker of taste. Burnt sugar, dark chocolate, more red fruit. Much to like. I read somewhere that it was finished on ex-sauternes casks? I don't get the same wine-y flavour that I got from the Daily Dram Foursquare sauternes. Still very enjoyable. I need to get used to this one but I don't think it will take long ;)
Review by Buddudharma
Definitely Worthy Park, the typical banana is clearly evident. WP is generally well suited to finishes, as is the case here. The nose and attack are really very good, and the finish really complements the character of the rum. The only drawback for me is the finish, as there is a slight off-note (dry wood with a slight sulphur note?). Nevertheless, all in all a nice rum at a great PLV.
Review by Serge
Oh, that's a surprise - for this price really exceptionally good. Banana in a sulphurous and overripe "musty" profile. I've had much worse for much more money. Certainly a great PLV mixer.

Franconian Tasting Gang on 02.03.24 I have been lurking around this rum for some time and have considered offering it as an underdog split because of its good ratings. For the price it is really a P/L rocket.
Review by kondgab
Worthy Park with a lot of banana.
Review by Dw117
An absolute bargain on sale at £25. The sauternes and funk combo is a very nice experiment. Nose is nice, palette delicious, but the finish is not excellent for me. Resinous french oak notes don’t go perfectly with the estery, chemical finish. Overall, an unbeatable jamaican expression at the price paid. Will update my review as I get further down the bottle.
Review by Richard Krupa
Fruity (banana and pineapple), funky, delicate, in a typical Jamaican vein
