“Like the 2006 Forsyths it does not disappoint expectations. Compared to its predecessor this has more presence of ester/solvent notes and seems less toasty...by a little. On the pineapple finish. A very satisfying tasting rum that I would never stop drinking.”

“A beautiful Worthy Park with a diverse, well-balanced profile. The nose opens with tropical fruits, then esters, solvents and glue, before giving way to spices, wood and chocolate. Complementing tobacco and a roasted sensation, beautiful pastry notes also appear, with caramel, toffee, marzipan, burnt sugar and buttery aromas. A deep, greedy, warm nose: very promising. The attack on the palate is lively and spicy, a little harder than the nose suggests. Banana, pineapple and citrus quickly fade before giving way to warm, spicy, woody, leathery and tobacco notes. The integration of alcohol could be improved. The rum here is rougher and rougher, and needs a little rest. The finish is of medium length, with a fleeting hint of exotic fruits and dried fruits. Dry, warm and somewhat bitter, the palate is overwhelmed by spices (chili, pepper, aniseed and licorice), dark chocolate, leather, wood (cask), tobacco and smoky notes. A saline touch is also perceptible. Compared with the 2006 vintage, the nose is more savory, but the attack on the palate is more aggressive and less controlled. The finish leaves a similar impression. All in all, a fine bottling from Velier.”

“Another wonderful rum from Habitation and typical Jamaican. The nose starts off funky from opening the bottle. Once rested for 15 minutes you're going to be welcomed by a very fruity nose with vanilla and a tad of polish/varnish. In the back there is a bit of wood. The palate is also setting off funky and fruity with a spicy peppery touch. In the background I get olive, tobacco and wonderful oak. The finish is long and pepper spicy with fruits and oak.”

“On the nose, the Worthy Park fruit basket remains in the background and is overlaid by nut, toast and chocolate. On the palate, it then turns a bit towards the typical WP fruit basket while remaining very spicy. Ester remains at the bottom. The finish is a bit salty with pepper and mocha.”

“Tropical aging is something beautiful. In the nose a lot of fruit. Palate does not quite deliver what the nose promises. Woodier and spicier. Slightly salty on the finish. Great.”

“Worthy Park is my least favorite Jamaican distillery. The rums I’ve tasted so far are nice but not mind blowing and this one is not different. Classic banana, pineapple with a little ester and wood both in nose and taste.”

“Beautiful delicacy in the nose with smells of marzipan dessert that we find in mouth. We also find always present a banana well ripe limit flambé. The whole is rather round and warm but no trace of residual sugar. It's rather pleasant and less of an ass-kicking than Hampden, maybe easier to match with a cigar. I'm not sure to put its current price though...”

“Nez équilibré typique de WP : bananes mûres/vanille/chocolat. C’est riche, chaud et invitant ! Bouche franche et agréable : caramel/coco/funky de la Jamaïque/zeste d’orange La finale est plutôt réussie, sur du jolis boisé, du chocolaté et une touche d’olive Un beau single cask qui représente bien l’univers de WP. C’est un rhum au gout intense et riche. Il manque de folie mais parfois c’est sympa aussi du plus conventionnel … Et bonne nouvelle, j’ai encore une bouteille qui traine dans ma cave …”
