Worthy Park S.B.S Jamaica WPL 2009

Best sipped neat, this is a classic Worthy Park pot-still Jamaican — one member says it "smells like Jelly Banans with chocolate," and that ripe banana carries onto the palate alongside young wood, pepper and a bit of milk chocolate. It's a low-ester WP: dry and slightly astringent rather than a funk bomb. A couple of tasters found it too bitter and sour on the finish.

The community says
  • Ripe banana note
  • Well-integrated alcohol
  • Bitter finish

Zweite Verkostung: hmm, ist im Vergleich zu anderen recht blass (-3) Für mich einer der Top-Rums aus dem Rum-Depot S.B.S Tasting 2022. Die Nase startet frisch super fruchtig vor allem mit den für Worthy Park so typischen Bananen. Die kommen am Gaumen dann so richtig zur Geltung. Der Nachklang wird vom Fasseinfluß dominiert. Toller Jamaikaner! Von mir aus hätten er gerne noch intensiver sein können, aber trotzdem ein sehr guter Rum!

Guter Worthy Park, der eher auf der trockenen, adstringierender Seite ist.

Kam im Tasting nach den Mittelamerikanern und ich hatte ihn deutlich besser in Erinnerung als jetzt. Es bleibt ein ordentlicher WPL, etwas trocken und astringent, aber schon nett zu sippen
