    The Single Cask (LMDW) WPL Rum is a 16-year aged Jamaican rum from the renowned Worthy Park distillery. Distilled in 2005 using molasses and a pot still, this limited edition rum boasts a complex flavor profile highlighted by notes of banana, chocolate, and caramelized elements, subtly accentuated by smoky and spicy undertones. With an ABV of 53%, it offers a robust yet balanced experience.

    "Beautiful nose, taste for me but a tad too bitter woody, sour and spicy. there can the 2007 mMn clearly more. Especially the sour finish I do not like unfortunately at all and reduces the rating...."

    "18.12.2021 Participating in a nice tasting given to me as a present. Nice hotel in a very central location. Notes Medium to dark in colour. Nose Fresh, fruity, banana, overripe, light caramel, faint glue. Palate Light wood, faint smoke, fruity, banana, overripe, faint pineapple, faint salt, faint caramel. Finish Medium long, warm, light wood, fruity, faint chocolate, faint vegetal. Extra note. A dialed down version of the WPM."

    "Worthy Park promises a broad aromatic spectrum - which is also on offer here. Still pleasantly fruity and spicy on the nose, then with vanilla, banana, dark chocolate, some caramel, wood, dark spices (pepper, allspice) and dried fruit on the palate - and unfortunately a rather incisive alcohol note on the finish, which does not disappear even with some oxidation. A pity, because apart from that, this is a pleasantly complex and drinkable rum."

    "Banana bread sweetened with honey, fresh and earthy. Camphor and solvent. A great, complex nose which shines right after pouring. Crisp and funky in the mouth.Really like this Worthy Park. I will have to spend more time with this distillery."
