Worthy Park Special Cask Release #8 Quatre Vins 2013
Expect a lot of wine here — this Worthy Park spent time in five different cask types, and the red-wine influence hits hard. Tasters find sour berries, red grütze, dark chocolate and drying tannins over the familiar WP banana, nut and wood. Several call it a "complex fruit-wine bomb" that's dry and a little bitter. Loved by some, too wine-forward for others.
The community says- Balanced wine cask profile
- Red berries, dark chocolate

How does Worthy Park Special Cask Release #8 Quatre Vins 2013 taste?
Aggregated from 61 community reviews.
Wine-soaked Jamaican, dry and tannic Most enjoy this as an unusual, well-rounded Worthy Park with heaps of red-wine and berry character. The catch: a few find the wine notes overpowering, plus a sour, slightly bitter edge.

Something special! Lots of sour fruit and berries, wine and wood, but also a faint tobacco/cocoa note. Dry, fruity and a little musty in the mouth, which fits the image of a Jamaican. However, there is also chocolate. Sweet caramel joins the chocolate and fruit in the finish. Conclusion: Jamaican rum in a roundabout way as a complex fruit wine bomb! I like it better than the "normal" representatives, although this rum would have benefited from a little more complexity.

I got a free backup bottle of this rum and I still like it a lot as an everyday rum. A wonderful rum which went through 5 different cask types before being bottled. Very nicely balanced between sweet and fruits. The price tag for this bottle is very good compared to what you get.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
hat an der Nase ein bisschen was von Vanille-Mascarpone-Creme mit roter Grütze oder Weingelee. am Gaumen setzt sich die rote Grütze mit vielen sauren Beeren dann in Kombination von Dunkler Schokolade und Rotwein und viel Tanninen fort, was extrem harmonisch und lecker ist. Dazu die für worthy park typische Banane und Nuss und Holz Note. im Abgang kommen dann etwas geröstete Nüsse, Früchtebrot und kandierter Ingwer und wieder die Rotwein-tannine dazu. überraschend gut und nicht zu holzig, könnte aber etwas weniger bitter sein... Definitiv aber ein Ausnahme WP!
Review by Timo Groeger
So, penultimate up today is a nice Worthy Park. The nose is mainly woody, with a hint of wine. On the palate there is also wine and wood, and it is also very fruity.
Review by zabo
Mir sind die Weinnoten hier ein wenig zuviel, die das eigentliche Profil überlagern. Außerdem hat er wie ich finde eine rauchige und saure Note, dieses macht eine bessere Bewertung leider zu nichte. Hätte mir etwas mehr versprochen von dieser Abfüllung
Review by LukaŽiga
8,1:On the nose, more industrial, metallic notes like rubber, varnish, copper, then roasted, smoky wood notes with leather, dark chocolate, roasted nuts, pastry, caramel, baked apple, wine barrel finish impact with dried fruits, grapes, sour cherry, berries, bump into our nosetrils. On aeration, hints of tar and menthol join the game, fruitcake and gingerbread, baking spices, various fruits like peaches, tropical with banana, citrus, as the molasses is earthy with tobacco, fresh with tea. 8,3:On the palate, the attack is rather dry, as the barrel impact is strong, fruity with red wine notes like berries with raspberry, cherry, grapes, dried fruits, tropical fruits join, the wood is roasted with caramel, pastry, biscuits, nuts, dark chocolate, perhaps fudge, spicy and salty, as the molasses is herbaceous, vegetal, earthy with tobacco.Tar and rubber, menthol accompany the interplay of Jamaican funk. 8,2:The finish is medium long, dry&tannic, slightly metallic, roasted, toasted wood notes like nuts, tons of confectionery, spicy, smoky, pair dark molasses with licorice, fresh with tea and dried fruits, berries. Edit:13.2.26
Review by Christian Rudt
Durch die verschiedenen Weinfässer natürlich mit ordentlich Wein im Geschmack. Das hat aber ein schönes Profil hervorgebracht. Nase wunderschön rund Sehr weinig auch am Gaumen, aber hier kommt der Rum etwas mehr durch. Wäre die Flasche erst jetzt auf den Markt gekommen würde ich sagen gute Pago-Alternative, beide schön zu trinken und welchen man bevorzugt ist vielleicht auch eher Tagesform oder Zufall. Wird sicher weitere Fassexperimente von WP geben.
Review by Sebastian Kornett
Der worthy park ist immer noch raus zu schmecken. Toller Rum, schönes aromenspiel. Für den Preis ist er vor seinen großen Bruder dem 12 jährigen. Für Einsteiger gut geeignet. Mir ist er heute doch dann zu dünn.
Review by Martin Ekrt
Ve vůni se charakter palírny nezapře a díky šílenému finišování je víno dost znatelné. Velmi fajn kombo. Podobně to vnímám i chuťově. Klasický WP, ale povedeně ozvláštněný finišema. Velmi přístupný a zábavný kousek.
Review by Alessandro
Assaggiato veramente per curiosità e conferma che, in moltissimi casi, le influenze del vino non fanno per me. Questo rum presenta una influenza del vino veramente predominante che nasconde quasi il gusto del rum vero e proprio

Had an opportunity to taste bottle that's been open for some time, but still loved it.
Review by Michal S
Ok rum s výraznou vinnou stopou.
