"Very good Worthy Park! No off notes, alcohol well integrated. Perhaps lacking some complexity."
"Fruity nose with tropical salad, citrus peels, blackberry and a blend of red fruits. It smells sweet of deep, dark molasses, lightly spiced with a smidgen of allspice. The experience stays very fresh and cool, welcoming like iced-tea on a hot summer night. The taste is very banana forward. The berries and sour cherries mostly disappear in a plethora of fresh-, green-, and baked banana. We continue with salted caramel followed by allspice and malt. Like most WPs it’s ‘breakfasty’ with buttered toast, coffee and tea. Lightly smoky, and eventually cool and refreshing on the back palate with herbal notes. This is an excellent depiction of the quality WP can achieve and that it isn’t just a Jamaican underdog. The alcohol is integrated very well and all flavours are neatly presented."
"This WP is milder and more pleasing than the 3-year-old, but in contrast it lacks the cheeky funkiness! In comparison, the 3-year-old is definitely the better rum for me!"
"Purchased yesterday and tried immediately. Fruity, dry and smooth. SUPER! 😍 Worthy Park has never disappointed me so far. Will be degusted and replenished more often."
