Worthy Park 109

This rum really stands out. Pretty smooth, some nice molasses notes. Goes great in a rum old fashioned.

A navy-proof rum that mixes the typical navy-style molasses/burnt caramel flavor with that Jamaican fruitiness/funk. Not my thing as a sipper, but works extremely well in cocktails!

A strong aroma. Warm to taste, nice caramel finish and a bit of vanilla taste. Good for price.

Nice dark Jamaican rum. Went well with a Liga Privada No.9 cigar. Decent finish, aroma was also okay. Recommended

Na nose mírné estery se dřevem a výrazným karamelem z flambovaným banánem. Chuť to kopíruje. Na mně je to málo vybalancované, drinky s toho rumu famózní.

Nice color, good taste, and nice finish, good, 7/10

rozinky, karamel, kakao, velmi dobrý poměr cena - výkon

Jamaican rum made primarily for mixing in cocktails. I tested it alone. It is a blend of low ester rums that has been aged for 3 years in oak barrels into which is then blended an unaged rum with a higher ester content. The esters create a technical-fruity proportion in the flavour typical of Jamaican rums. The resulting blend is bottled at 54.5% ABV.

Bottle: High, liquor type
Colour: Dark mahogany. Due to the age of the rum, I believe it has been coloured with caramel.

Aroma: Strong fruity-ester. There is a strong fruity fermentation aroma, but it is a very pleasant. Must try. In the aroma you can detect caramel, banana, pineapple, apricot ferment, flowers.
Mouth: Very dry, a little bit bitter and, due to the alcohol content, very burning on the palate and on the tongue. I recognised unripe fruit (bananas, pineapple, grapes) in the taste. The certain bitterness I felt at the beginning is slowly fading.
Finish: Long.

Summary: There is a strength that makes itself known. Although it's mainly intended for cocktails (Cuba libre, Tiki), it's quite drinkable on its own.
Overall rating: 8.5/10

Very good drop from Worthy Park. Very smooth and has some nice Jamaican in the backbone. It’s not as complex as some other worthy park offerings and as I understand it is colored with caramel which I don’t like. But overall it’s a solid Jamaican rum at a great price.
