    How does this rum taste?

    Reviewers praise the Special Barrel Series WPE for its bold ester profile and vibrant tropical fruit character, highlighted by notes of banana, pear, and a hint of green apple. Many enjoy its youthful, funky edge and find it pleasantly complex for a three-year-old rum, often sipping it neat to experience the Jamaican funk. Worth trying if you appreciate fruit-forward rums with a wild twist and solid barrel presence.

    Solid WP with plenty of fruits and Jamaican funk. Much better than the WP Single Estate Reserve I tried in parallel. //ipdate: rating confirmed in re-tasting, still good . Solid release without bells and whistles

    Give. Me. Ester. The perfect Worthy Park fruit basket with the typical green apple aroma, banana, mango, a touch of vanilla, which gives the whole still a pleasant mild sweetness. This is what Jamaica tastes like.

    My first WPE and I must say I like it quite a bit. Not soeine brutal ester clap like TECA or DOK, but still clearly noticeable. Lots of fruit, other flavors but rather restrained. So overall a bit one dimensional. Compared to other Worthy Parks still very interesting.

    Solid young WPE - despite its young age, has already taken a good maturation. Funky, young, wild, the barrel is still present, lots of fruit, pear, fresh apple, citrus - good astringency, herbs on the finish! For the age he already has a lot to offer - expectations felt, no surprise, good distillate!
