Only three years old, yet the cask already speaks up here — several tasters note young wood and spice sitting right alongside green apple, banana, pear and citrus. One member sums it up: "drinks well at 57. slightly immature, lacking structure but very tasty." Estery WPE funk without the brutal punch of TECA or DOK. A few call it a touch one-dimensional.
The community says- Fruity ester funk
- Full 57% punch
- Keep in mind: Young, unstructured

How does Worthy Park Special Barrel Series WPE 2017 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Young, fruity WPE funk at full strength Most find it a genuinely fun young Worthy Park — plenty of fruit and funk at a lively 57%. A few say the young oak and spice dominate, and one taster found it bitter and musty.

Solid WP with plenty of fruits and Jamaican funk. Much better than the WP Single Estate Reserve I tried in parallel. //ipdate: rating confirmed in re-tasting, still good . Solid release without bells and whistles

This is the bottle I would like to see from WP as a standard bottling.Nose: more intense aged grappa and a little Williams pear, strong alcoholPalate: here the rum shows a completely different series, sharply alcoholic and a lot of wood and spice are in the foregroundAftertone: here it becomes softer again, the aged grappa appears again, very long, spicy and woody aftertasteYes, the rum was stored only three years and you notice that especially on the palate: wild and impetuous, was perhaps not the optimal barrel selection, because the wood and barrel notes are dominant and do not really fit the fine fruitiness. Nevertheless, a good rum.
Review by Christoph
Give. Me. Ester. The perfect Worthy Park fruit basket with the typical green apple aroma, banana, mango, a hint of vanilla, which gives the whole a pleasant mild sweetness. This is how Jamaica tastes.
Review by Domi Mal
Solid young WPE - despite its young age, has already taken a good maturation. Funky, young, wild, the barrel is still present, lots of fruit, pear, fresh apple, citrus - good astringency, herbs on the finish! For the age he already has a lot to offer - expectations felt, no surprise, good distillate!
Review by DosenZorn
My first WPE and I must say I like it quite a bit. Not soeine brutal ester clap like TECA or DOK, but still clearly noticeable. Lots of fruit, other flavors but rather restrained. So overall a bit one dimensional. Compared to other Worthy Parks still very interesting.
Review by Rene Pfeiffer
The first WP I've tasted that goes beyond the light ester notes and is more upper mid-range there. Delicious.
Review by Basti
Unfortunately, I didn't warm up to it. Alcohol is quite well integrated, but for me simply too bitter/licorice-like. Somehow it gets musty over time in the glass.
Review by Thunderbird
For a young WP already amazingly many facets! Very intense

Nose: Esters, overripe fruit, pear, a tartness from green apple. Taste: A spicy heat, light wood and tropical fruits.

Review by Elwin
This one packs a punch. Glue, gasoline, pineapple, banana, green apple and pear. Yeah, it may be a little young, but that's part of what makes it so fun. For fans of HLCF Classic, Mhoba Strand, Smith & Cross. Worthy Park needs to release more that isn't just WPL. WPE and WPH are some of my favorite marks.
