Estery, balanced sweetness, light oak, a bit of sherry?, hints of vanilla and cinnamon. Worthy Park mostly does mass market rums, and this attempt at going "premium" is conservative but still interesting.

Strong burn, but opens nicely with a little water.

Very nice, but pricey.

This has some serious “funk”. But unlike Hampden it is balanced. Oak, banana and vanilla right up front. Also the fine strong bite. But is all in balance. It hits the pallet so smoothly revealing the molasses and some tobacco notes. Great body. It goes down as easy as water. So smooth with a very long lingering finish. Fine rum. Money well spent. This is what a Jamaican rum can and should be.

Among the jamaican’s, worthy park has their own signatur funk, which seem’s more well behaved than some of the naughtier names, like Hampden. This doesn’t make it more or less appealing though. The nose is really aromatic and a little earthy with notes of banana, musty pineapple, milky tea, hints of rubber, varnish and sawdust. Given a little time, chared wooden notes also peaks out.
Given the potent nose, the taste is, a little surprisingly, somewhat light bodied but not without flavour. Tasty rubbery notes unfolds with an underlying banana sweetness, then rolling towards black tea and a bit of a spicy finish with pepper and ginger, ultimately giving way to the lingering pineapple sweetness.
It started out as a 7 for me, but as I’m getting to know this bottle, it’s closing in on an 8. The price is perhaps slightly to high, but it’s no biggie. Recommended and enjoyable bottle if you like Jamaican.

I really wanted to like this as it was brought back to Aussie for me from the UK.. but its just not for me. Very acetone on the nose , too much nail polish remover and glue notes , lovely floral and fruity notes as well... left to breath for a while but all i could think of was whisky , on its own , with ice and also mixed , just overpowering whisky taste. Damn..
I then poured myself an Appletons Joy rum to remind me that i do normally like Jamaican rums !

I can tolerate this rum neat, or with ice. But it is not worthy of the price. Diplomatico or Plantation XO special, is way better than this stuff. The Diplomatico costs $65, The Plantation is $80, and this garbage was $85.

Disappointment, for his price. Aroma some banana and fruit. Taste very short and sharp from alcohol, filling that rum very young.

I didn't realize until after buying this that its a low ester Worthy Park offering, so its really nothing like a funky Jamaican rum, which is what I was expecting. However, its a very good rum anyway. Its dry and has a whisky like character to it, and is one of the better examples of whisky-like rum that I've tried.

I'm not very good at using words to describe the flavor, but I do get the banana influence. It has a fairly long finish and is very smooth for 45% ABV, and tastes like a lot of effort went into making a high quality product. I'm happy to see Mr. Rumantic also gave it the same rating as I did, and was able to elaborate more on the flavor profile that he perceived. He also mentioned that if being super-critical he might consider it to be a little too watery, I don't really agree with that, but I might understand what he means. The higher ABV and flavor profile might normally be associated with a more syrupy and velvety mouthfeel, but this is intense yet lighter bodied. Apologies if I mis-understood, but that's my take on it.

edit: after a bit of time to reflect on this, I'd have to say this rum is a bit one-dimensional and I lost interest in it pretty quickly as it sat on my bar along side 20 other rums. I blended in some Hamilton Pot Still Black to give it a bit more character, and I like it better after the blending. As a result I'm dropping my rating from an 8 to a 7. I get that it was never intended to be a Jamaican funk style, but I got bored with it so quickly for what it was that I needed to make it more interesting.

Pretty good smell and taste, absolutely caramelly and fruity. It was abit more stingy than I would like, and I did not enjoy it neat as much as I would have liked. Maybe I would have liked it better at ABV 40 rather than 45.
