One of the worst rums I've had. Distinct and sharp alcohol flavor.

Jde o sériově vyráběný rum z jamajské cukrové třtiny pěstované v údolí Lluidas a patřící právě destilerii Worthy Park.
Rum stárne 2 - 5 let v sudech z bílého dubu.
Uveden na trh v roce 2015 jako Trave Retail v objemu 1l.
Aroma: Třtinové, bylinkové, svěží, v pozadí guma
Chuť: Lehce kořenitá, medová, bylinková. Až příliš jemná - 40% je znát, je hodně vodová
Dozvuk: Medový, lehce bylinky, úplně na konci sušené ovoce. Krátký a vodový.
Sladkost: 0/3
Ochutnán vzorek
Velmi light Jamajka - 40% je znát, je to až sirupově přejemnělé a vodové. I tak se však jedná o pohodový rum a myslím, že pro rumové začátečníky je ideálním přechodem k více esterovým a ostřejším Jamajkám.

Me he leído todo.......y la parte de rones añejos no la encuentro, este ron los aficionados al "old n 7" es posible que lo aprecien, en mi opinión es muy alcohólico ya desde la nariz y en boca aún más, aún así no quema paladares ni gaznates.....desde luego no encuentro ninguna fruta, especia ni zarandajas de esas, el caramelo se debió quedar en el camino y la selección de cañas no me parece muy afortunada, por cierto sabor a ron ron no me da ya le gustaría parecerse a alguno de los rones de sus vecinos ( Cuba o Rep. Dominicana) y si me preguntarán por los barriles diría que antes tuvieron bourbon.....me parece que dándole un cinco cumplo más que de sobra, me parece bastante mejor el Consuelo pero tampoco repetiría, además es bastante caro pa lo que es 25€.
Tengo que decir que hay rones que mejoran una vez abierta la botella y este es uno de ellos, el sabor es el mismo pero el alcohol mengua siendo más aceptable.

This tasted like paint remover. I tried this on a drunken night tasting other low rated rums, so don’t take my words for law.
Colour is good, smell is acrid like fuel, and the taste is bloody awful - cannot even reasonably cover it up with coke

Bought a bottle in the duty free shop in Grand Turk. Had heard much about Worthy Park but hadn't tried any. To say the least, was a bit disappointed. The aroma gave hints of greatness, but they disappeared when I tasted it. Lots of burn and a very off putting astringent alcohol taste. Second taste was a bit better, but still rough around the edges. This one will go up for mixer duty and we'll see if it does a bit better.

Bough from duty free at the airport without research and though i had a bargain. Landed with a litre bottle to mix was the reality. It’s ok but that’s it. Not to be repeated as was pricey for what it was. Lots of packaging to justify.

Really cheap taste, no flavour and with an aftertaste of whisky...it's jus bad!
Let, ikke så krydret med masser af sukker og en del alkoholstyrke i smagen...

Bacardi messed up here

This caught my eye in the Airport duty free shop. Am a fan of what Worthy Park are doing and costing around 30 Euros for 1 litre bottle thought pretty good value.
A bit of googling found that in 2015 Bacardi launched a collection of premium aged rums known as Single Cane Estate Rums. Currently there are 2 rums in this collection with each is crafted entirely at a single source. This one is from Jamaica's Worthy Park Estate in St. Catherine.
From Bacardi "As the world leader in rum, Bacardi has a unique ability to drive rum category premiumisation, the credibility to deliver new perceptions of the rum experience, and the insight and innovation to create new categories within rum."
To me clearly marketing tosh and it's more like Bacardi wants a slice of the independent bottling markets pie.
Worthy Park has a long history. Established in 1670 with commercial production of cane & sugar starting in 1720 Forced to cease rum production by the Jamaican government in 1962 due to an oversupply of Jamaican rum. In 2005 Rum production started again distilling in the traditional Jamaican Pot Still method. Worthy Park has been released by independent bottlers but they sell using their own label "Rum-Bar" .
Bacardi's version of Worthy Park comes in a nice modern presented bottle with embossed lettering. Aged between 2-5 years in white oak casks. Bottled at 40% abv. Color is a dull dark amber (added colouring). Recogniseable Worthy Park Jamaican funk aroma. Taste quiet oaky and a spicy kick with a dry finish. I can't really make out the subtle notes that I have experienced from other Worthy Park releases. Everything appears to be muted. Like listening to music with earplugs in.
To me this is a “dumb” down version of Worthy Park. It’s a decent rum and good value for money especially if you want to get into a Jamaican style rum. Knowing what Worthy Park themselves put on the market and what other independent bottlers are doing with Worthy Parks liquid I”m just a bit disappointed.
