Worthy Park Single Estate Reserve

Interesting rum mainly because I found it an unusual Jamaican because of some of the fruity notes. As the mere novice that I am, at a blind tasting, I would have mistaken it for an agricultural. Very light toastiness. Medium-long finish with a prevalence of lychee.

Very soft, round and complex Jamaican from probably the most sustainable rum distillery in the world. Nice long fruity finish with the typical banana aromas. Fun to drink!

Really good starter rum, especially to enter in the wonderfull world of jamaican rums. Very pleasant to drink. Nose is fruity with some esters and a light floral, marzipan, woody notes. The various notes of trop. fruits, esters and wood contiues in mouth. The finish is medium long with various notes. Perfect in combination with a mild cigar👌🏻👌🏻

After a long time, I have once again torn open a rum that accompanied me in my early days. For the price, this is a real underdog for me. With a little more ABV, it would be an absolute cracker. As a mixer, it's excellent and all for under €40 at the time

It’s a really great rum and excellent introduction to Jamaican rum with a blend aged 6-10 years that’s flavourful, smooth and complex with a rather long finish. Bought some bottles of it together with some others from Worthy Park during the last Rum Cruise with Birka Cruises in the Baltic Sea after tasting it at Ian Burrell’s blind taste. I really like that they now are on their own because I’m more interested in having bottles from the actually distillery than from independent bottlers. On the added photo is the bottles included at Ian Burrell’s Blindtest.

A pretty good WP considering the price tag. Nice and fruity with spices and natural sweetness. I like the oily texture on the palate.

8:The nose is instantly recognizable. Banana, a brioche, more or less resin and stone with funkiness. At first, it's the dried banana that takes the cake, a banana is very ripe, there are herbal notes/annis, mint, also a hint of vanilla tobacco and yeast, with a pinch of tonka bean.With aeration, a pine is mingled with our dried banana with some peppery notes. The balance between medicinal and pastry is admirably delicious. The rum becomes grassy and green apple arises. The woodiness is chocolatey, caramelized, toasted and ripe exotic fruits, like stewed peaches mingle with cereals.Perfect pie or tarte. 8:The palate is quite dry, unlike the nose, sweetness is natural and tasty.After this rather spicy- peppery with very mild cinnamon, woody attack, the banana is tastier than ever. It's surrounded by spices and brioche yeast, which adds some bitterness with caramel, all becomes very thick but buttery.There are nice floral(perfum) notes also 7,8:On the finish, a bit metallic, pine resin, yeasty pastry linger, with mild bitterness, raisins and raspberries. Edit:6.4.25, still tasty

Update after 9-12 month open bottle: So much red apple in this one, didn’t notice first time around. This is a great 100% pot still Jamaican sipping rum at a great price. It's so gentle yet so full-flavored with that signature Jamaican funk. Perhaps one of the very best introductions to a friend who wants to try a Jamaican for the first time. Even though it's not very expensive it's clearly not meant to be a cocktail rum, where a lot of its gentlemanly subtlety gets lost. Great provenance, great flavor, a pleasure.

Super pleasant and soft estery notes on the nose. Rather dry, tropical fruits, some banana in the mouth. A wonderful Jamaican rum from WP if it does not have to be an ester bomb from Hampden. Good for beginners.

In the nose especially after a few minutes in the glass mainly citrus, I would not have assigned directly Jamaica.In the taste very spicy with wood and a few earthy notes. In the finish comes a nice mix of banana, lemon and tobacco.Will not my favorite Jamaican, but is definitely tasty.

Nice entry to Jamaican rums, you find all the typical fruity notes with a slight funkiness but toned down based on lower abv. All in all good drinker and gateway to higher abv & ester rums. Surprisingly long finish and oilyness, really not a bad dram.

This was one of my first rums and also a blind purchase, I was really disappointed at the time because I was still used to the sweet Plörre. Meanwhile, I have the bottle brought forward again and find it is a solid Jamaican and he is definitely much better than the sweet rums I drank at the beginning. :-) Based on this bottle I personally see how my taste has changed over the relatively short time.Nachtrag: FotoNachtrag: still a wonderful Jamaicaner.

A basic Worthy Park that's sweet, gourmand and voluptuous. The nose has a funky, rounded profile of exotic fruits, citrus and notes of esters and solvents. Vanilla woodiness adds creaminess, while the scent of flowers adds freshness and diversity to this very typical profile. The attack on the palate is calm and very rounded. The texture is creamy and mellow, adding fat to the rum's body. Tropical fruit, citrus, phenolic notes and lightly spiced vanilla wood all play off each other, oscillating between sweetness and sweetness once again. The finish is of decent length. A hint of roasted notes, tobacco and caramel shake up the fruity-spicy duel we've been witnessing all along. An easily accessible rum that offers a gentle introduction to Jamaica.

Fein fein denkt man sich bei diesem erschwinglichen Kumpanen. Nettes Zusammenspiel von Gewürz, Holz und tropischen Früchten mit schönem Ester im Tor. Geht immer und auch immer lecker. Wird bei jedem Schlückchen sogsr ein bisdchen Besser.

For the umpteenth time, I'm going back to Select. My least favourite rum from my favourite distillery. The aroma probably reminds me more of Guyana than Worthy Park. I finally figured it out. It tastes like young Guyana, too. I don't think it fits WP's production, but it's not bad.
