    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members love the classic Jamaican funk here: an ester-rich nose with banana and pineapple, followed by a peppery, woody snap at 57.18% ABV. Often enjoyed neat with a splash of water or on the rocks; some even mix with lime and sugar. Well-regarded for its price and limited to 6,666 bottles, this Worthy Park release is a solid choice backed by 77 community reviews.

    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.
