Review by Steve the Barman
All my Tastings and Scores are purely based on “Rums under £50”. I rarely look at Rums over £50 for my YouTube.
Review by Adrian Wahl
Strong PLV and comes with me often used in tiki cocktails
Review by Trinkfluencer
Very interesting. The banana comes out very clearly, especially in the finish. Overall, a round rum with woody notes that is very full-bodied. Slightly strong
Review by Christian Rudt
Only suitable for cocktails whereby the licorice note disturbs me here but something. This flavor was much more pleasant in my Ti-Punch from earlier.🙂
Review by Kieron Wood
A must have in a bar ... I love it in an old fashioned beautiful Jamaican funk from a very young rum ... A very woody pot still Jamaican that can easily outmatch much more expensive rums . A worthy park banana bomb treat
Review by Lutz Lungershausen
04.2024 First impression: golden Jamaican Nose: fruit and esters Palate: light rather than thin, a little fruit, wood, alcohol, but the 40% works well Finish: warm, alcoholic, a little bit scratchy Conclusion: in Jamaica this is such a forest and meadow rum, here too: it's not a sipper but as a mixer you get slight ester notes. Score remains 7.0. On the occasion of my visit to Worthy Park Estate, Lluidas Vale, Jamaica in February 2024, I brought a few merchandising items with me (see photo) and the memory that the whole area smelled so deliciously of rum and Dunder. 1st Tasting 2022 - remained uncommented here, rating 7.0
Review by epicsune 🇸🇪
Original impressions from 2017 rum calendar. Nose: ** Taste: * Overall: * ”Tequila/päron? 40% Jamaica.” Light funk on the nose with vanilla and raisins. Palate has a sweet but spicy kick to it but also banana and barrelwood.
Review by w00tAN
A little watery admittedly but it gives a nice spiciness and with the 40% it is also an accessible rum for a beginner.

For cocktails okFor pure enjoyment less suitable
Review by Gregor
In the smell really exciting. Versatile after cherry. But in the taste vuel too watered down and too thin. Here was great potential nicbt properly used
Review by Rado Vito
Strong pineapple smell, you can taste pineapple and maracuja, body is weird. I just haven´t found proper word for it.
Review by Schnubbii
Ziemlich solider pot-still rum. Alleine nicht wirklich schlecht, aber dann doch eher als Mixer geeignet.
Review by primus
Solid rum with fruity notes. I think this rum works well in cocktails, but can also be enjoyed neat. While you can taste the quality straight, the alcohol might be too present for some people, but for cocktails it is a clear level up compared to the usual suspects in the 0815 cocktail bar. It also brings flavor. This could be a good place to start for people who are coming from a cocktail background and want to get closer to the world of rum through mixing.

Expert review by Rum Runner Labs
"A classic expression of Worthy Park that delivers all the banana you could ever want. On the nose the banana is joined by apple and varnish, but on the palate allspice, cereal and flower shop round out an altogether compelling and budget friendly introduction to Jamaican rum."Read full review →
Expert review by The Fat Rum Pirate
"It is for a fairly young rum, quite complex and I certainly hope that people take the plunge and try a bottle whilst Tesco have stocks as I think they will be very pleasantly surprised. Excellent stuff and I'm looking forward to trying more Worthy Park rums in the future."Read full review →
