“I got this bottle at a very good price and it was a very nice surprise. Very fruity all the way and lightly dry in the finish. Retasting this one today and I still think it's pretty good.”

“Had this open for a year now, and returned to it often. As I had the chance to broaden my experience I must reduce my rating for this rum. I believe the alcohol to be to much, it is too sharp in its burn, and (at least for me) makes it difficult to access the flavours. Water helps, time had not helped (as I hoped). Still, it has an intense smell, and, given time and water, one will have a good sipper for a slow evening. If just the alcohol would have been better integrated, which I know from comparison to other rums to be possible...”

“The best Worthy Park I've had in a glass. Tropical fruit with lots of spice and wood. Also notes of aniseed and licorice. A rum with rough edges that has a lot to offer. Intense in flavor and a long finish. Fun in the glass every time.”

“The initial releases of the Habitation Velier series were my introduction to the world of Worthy Park and are still among the best I know of the distillery. The profile of the 2006 release has rough edges, brings fiery spicy notes together with tart wood, anise, licorice and slightly mineral hints and sweet notes of tropical fruit and vanilla sugar. What can I say? Just really good.”

“A nose of fruit, banana, pineapple, tutti-frutti, but also varnished old wood and leather. The palate contrasts with the liveliness of the nose; everything here is more balanced and the fruit is still very present. The finish is long, refined and balanced, with a hint of wet wood (larch) and roof tar appearing in the empty glass.”

“This is a retaste and I am not changing my initial score from 2 years ago. A very nice jamaican from Worthy Park and to me is a great representation of the distillery. Fruit and spices, can get the oak influence coming through as well. A great nose and a medium to long finish.”

“A Worthy Park from Habitation Velier which offers a nice aromatic balance. It is neither in the high esters, nor in the more sanitized rums, it is well constructed. The nose opens on tropical fruits (pineapple and banana) before letting out some phenolic notes (esters, glue, solvents and varnish) then woody, spicy, roasted aromas and leather. A smell of baked apple emerges from this very round and comely blend. Caramel, brown sugar and dried fruits complete the olfactory panel.One discerns in mouth an oily, intense and dry rum, with at first exotic fruits and citrus fruits, which fade rather quickly to let dominate the woody flavors (barrel), spices (pepper, chili, vanilla, cinnamon), leather, empyreumatic notes (toasted, roasted). A very unusual profile for Jamaica, the cask having played a big role on this tropical aging rum, but not unpleasant. The esters are very much in the background, but the balance of flavors is there. The finish, quite long, comes back on the bitterness of leather and dark chocolate, woody notes, hot and spicy spices, some fruit and esters notes that complete this tasty and very varied profile.More concentrated and more mastered than its 2007 counterpart, this Worthy Park 2006 is a very nice bottling that reveals another side of Jamaican rum.”

“A worthy park that really amazed me! The alcohol is a bit overpowering but if you let it breathe well you can appreciate it well! A mix of memories of the flavors between Appleton and monymusk makes it a very unique rum but very enjoyable to drink!”

“Very inviting nose. On the palate, first wild esters and alcohol that almost overrun the tongue and deliver A nice Jamaican feeling in the form of papaya, banana and co. Then always spice and wood as well. Very complex and delicious, with nice fruity notes. But although I like high esters and cask strength, I find it a bit boisterous in the mouth.”

“Tra i tre, della serie HV, questo mark per me e’ quello più piacevole dei tre. Ottimo al naso, ottimo al palato con un bel finale. (PS: la votazione, come le impressioni, sono prettamente personali)”
