Worthy Park Select Jamaica Rum
Worthy Park · Worthy Park Estate
This is Jamaican rum with its seams hidden. The estate's signature funk is present but smoothly integrated into a broader flavor profile rather than leading the charge. Approachable enough for new rum drinkers, complex enough to keep veterans interested. Exceptional value.
Kit Aromas
Nose
Ripe banana and tropical fruits open, followed by vanilla and a subtle oak note. Underneath there's a touch of caramel and a clean citrus brightness that keeps it fresh.
Palate
Medium-bodied with tropical fruit sweetness balanced by spice and a slight funkiness typical of Jamaican pot still rum. Toffee and oak provide structure, while banana and citrus weave through the mid-palate.
Finish
Medium, with warm spice, vanilla, and a lingering tropical fruit echo.
