Classic WP nose: ripe fruit, banana, esters. A touch of acidity too. On the palate, the alcohol is very (too?) present. It left little room for expression of the aromas for me. Fruity, spicy. 2nd tasting: the impression is better than during the 1st tasting. It's not the best Jamaican I've ever tasted, but after the Guyana from the same bottler, this one comes across better. The acidity is still not very pleasant. But I appreciate the funky-fruity side this time.

Not a high-ester Worthy Park. This makes it wonderfully drinkable. Aromatically very full and round despite the fact that it is a relatively young distillate.
My nose said WP right away with all its appley notes and this is spot on. I would have loved to buy a few bottles back in the day.
