    "The influence of the Calvados cask is recognizable, pleasant apple aromas join the Worthy Park profile, which is somewhat tamed in view of the drinking strength, as is to be expected. However, this is not at the expense of the fullness of flavor; the rum does not appear too watered down, but instead develops a pleasantly drinkable spectrum of aromas. A very appealing and multi-layered sipping rum."

    "#4110 A pretty decent release and in limited numbers. Fruity with nice wood and some spice. Needs to rest for a while to release all the flavours. Price to quality is OK."

    "A 10-year-old Worthy Park aged in Bourbon and Calvados casks. You can feel the two influences alongside the funky framework on the nose: Calvados and green apple combine with exotic fruit and fermented notes, all tied together by very sweet vanilla. On the palate, the barrels continue to speak for themselves. The alcohol and tannins are more pronounced, but the sweetness of the fruit attenuates my power to offer something mellow and accessible. The finish, of decent length, incorporates the sweet spices of the Bourbon cask into its pattern to give an extra touch of greediness on the finish, where alcohol, banana and pineapple vie for the last word. A good finishing rum, but would benefit from a little more vivacity and character to be at its best."
