Single Cane Estate Worthy Park

Recently started drinking rums, and this was my first one...maybe my taste has developed since but I really enjoyed this, which you can't seem to get anymore. I like a sweeter rum so maybe suits my taste and this got me started.

40% ABV.

Ok, ok. I, fortunately, was not duped by the sneaky faux-premium branding. And while I tend to avoid Bacardi at all costs, I do love me some WP, so I was still interested in trying it out.

And you know what? It's not half bad! It's nowhere near the best WP has to offer—it's been over-diluted and over-sweetened—but it's still pretty darn tasty. I've said it before and I'll say it again: Worthy Park don't make no bad rum. I may not love all of it, but it's all solid. And if you have your heart set on bringing home a hard-to-find bottle from the Duty Free, there's a very good chance this will be the best you can do. You might pay more than it's worth (ok, you're likely to get hosed unless it's on sale), but again, it's really not as bad as everyone says it is. If other, non-Bacardi WPs are available to you, then by all means, get those instead. If not, this is a great one to start with and enjoy however you want.

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.

Let, ikke så krydret med masser af sukker og en del alkoholstyrke i smagen...

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.

The flavor: 5/10. A strange watery flavor in there. 7/10 for both aroma and look/feel of bottle. 10/10 for the color of the liquid.

Tvrdší rum, cítiť chuť tabaku. Príjemné zásteny,suchsi. Charakterovo úplne odlišný od tradičných rumov. Zaujal ma

but also not what i thougt. in the nose it is promising and tipical jamaican rum. but on the palate it is thin and a spiritus taste is over all there. also not long lasting at the end. with some wood, or even old wood.

This would have all the makings of a 6+ star rum, if it didn't need that much time to breathe in the glass before I was able to make out the subtleties in its taste. I'm not a very experienced rum drinker, but this is not for sipping. It's harsh, and suffocates a lot of what lies underneath. It almost gets into the upper ranks due to its finish, which is long, characterful and oaky, but I do let it stand for 15 minutes before drinking in order to experience the full spectrum of flavours here. A few drops of water might be nice. There are more refined spiced rums out there for the money.

Bought at duty free, not cheap. Nice bottle. Strong alcohol smell. Harsh taste, difficult to taste anything. Not worth the price
