How does this rum taste?
- Good PLV
- very round, very harmonious rum
- fruity freshness and spice
RumX members keep circling back to varnish, banana, and fresh tropical fruits—think pineapple and a bit of pear. That signature Worthy Park ester shows up all over, with glue and solvent notes getting love (or not) depending on your vibe. As Filip Šikula puts it, “ve vůni staré známé a přijemné lepidlo, banán, anananas a estery.” Some, like Rumclub Latvia, find it "feels young spirit, but good," while Enriko Špinler admits, "I still get what I need" despite some bracing, technical edges. Fresh, fruity, a bit sharp—this one’s more than your everyday sipper.

To Worthy Park
"The alcoholic part is not harmonious with the rest."
"Sometimes things get better about 6-9 months after opened, sometimes they don’t. This is a case of the latter. UPDATE in comparison with 2013 release: The 2013 pot still release is far better than this one. The column still distillation on this one leaves an unfinished, sharp taste with a gluey aftertaste. It feels like it should have spent at least 3 more years in the barrel. This is remarkable considering this actually has more tropical aging than the 2013 pot still version, which just goes to show what a tremendous difference the distillation does to the flavor. I greatly enjoyed comparing these two from wp side by side but trust me, the pot still 2013 version is the one to get."
"Solid Worthy Park, but a few more years of barrel aging would not have hurt. Still seems a bit impetuous, even if the fruity freshness and the spice are positive to note. However, it lacks a counterbalance by somewhat heavier notes from the wood and sweetness, which would have given the rum a more pleasant balance. Here I would have been interested in the result after a little more storage time or but with a finish from a sweet wine barrel. So bleibts for me a Worthy Park in the rear part of the known to me field of participants."
