"Very cool Worthy Park! Powerfull, delicious, Funky with cool Cherry notes 🤤 The port barrel is noted, but it isn’t overwhelming! I like it a lot, especially the mix of various fruits. The alcohol is integrated well and give it a nice depth."
"Overall a great port finished rum that’s rich, fruity, round and balanced that not loses its Jamaican funky profile. Bought me two bottles of this Special Cask Release from Worthy Park during the last Rum Cruise with Birka Cruises in the Baltic Sea. I choose this one cause I heard it was the best one in the first batch Special Cask Release released in 2018. It’s distilled in pot still back in 2008 whereafter it was aged for 9 years in ex-bourbon casks. Thereafter it was transferred to 1423 in Denmark where it was finished during one year in a former Port Cask before being bottled at ABV 56% in just 585 bottles."
