Worthy Park Special Cask Series Port 2010

Le finish de ce Rhum lui confère une robe interressante et gourmande que l’on retrouve au nez. Avec ces marqueurs de Porto et d’oxydation (noix etc). En bouche c’est moins chaleureux même si ça reste très plaisant, c’est moins raffiné et charmeur et bien plus direct, limite brûlant. Dommage que la finale soit assez courte et franche mais ça reste tout à fait honorable pour un 10 ans d’autant que je ne suis pas vraiment fan des jus de la distillerie WP habituellement.

Like WP reserve, I couldn´t find almost no difference. It is softer....

I'm liking this one a lot. Probably because it's not too funky as some other Jamaicans 😅 A nice sweetness but also with a slight bittef twist to it. The port is there but not overpowering the taste imo. Very easy to drink as well.

Good for a gentle introduction to Jamaican rums. Interesting nose involving several solvents, but not aggressive, on a background of red fruits. The palate is good, with a hint of port finish, but the whole is rather watery. Less reduction would have been preferable. A very pleasant rum overall, as always with Worthy Park.

Joli WP bien marqué par le fut Porto. Au nez comme en bouche Porto bien présent. En bouche léger côté boisé et grillé, légers solvants, on retrouve les marqueurs WP sur les fruits exotiques, avec également beaucoup de fruits rouges (sirop de grenadine), autant preque mérité quelques degrés de plus. Quelques epices pas trop piquantes que l'on retrouve en finale.

From the fruit basket strongly in the direction of citrus. Sweet fruits hardly present. The tropical maturation lifts the rum clearly from the continental matured WP. The port finish is extremely present here and unfortunately rolls down the WP fruit basket somewhat.

30.03.2022 Sampling a bit at home. Notes Medium to dark in colour. Nose Fresh, sweet, light medicinal, light roasted wood, banana, faint honey. Palate Fresh, light, light oily, honey, light medicinal, faint herbs, dried fruit, light herbs. Finish Medium long, light, fruity, light roasted wood, naturally sweet, light herbs, raisin, faint banana.

Friends of port wine get their money's worth here. A little too sour for me.

In the nose, still with a clear impact of port, but on the palate, the spices press quite on the tube and despite the reduction to (high) drinking strength, the rum adheres to a quite accentuated spiciness. In the finish, a somewhat medicinal-mineral note joins in. Overall exciting, because the rum is aromatically already expressive, but unfortunately remains somewhat unbalanced. Lies for me behind the sister bottling with Madeira finish.

Good, but unfortunately a bit thin

Ve vůni i chuti hodně portského a červeného vína, rum stojí trochu stranou.

Slightly better than the Madeira cask expression but not as good as the Reserve.
