Dive into the vibrant world of Jamaican rum with the Worthy Park 2014 Jamaica Pot Still Special Barrel #971. This exquisite spirit, aged for 6 years and bottled in 2020, boasts an impressive ABV of 56%, encapsulating the robust and lively character of the Worthy Park Distillery. Encased in a 700ml bottle, this rum is a testament to the traditional pot still method, offering a harmonious blend of tropical fruits, spices, and caramel undertones. From the first nose, it greets you with an enticing tropical aroma of pineapple, citrus peels, and peaches, balanced by the deep, dark essence of molasses and a subtle hint of young wood. The initial sweetness is delicately spiced with allspice and a touch of green pepper, reminiscent of an iced tea on a hot summer night. On the palate, expect a delightful explosion of fruity notes predominated by banana – fresh, green, and baked. The lushness of red fruits gives way to a rich blend of caramel, salt, and malt, complemented by nuanced hints of allspice. This rum's 'breakfasty' character continues with undertones of buttered toast, coffee, and tea, finishing lightly smoky and refreshingly herbal. The finish is slightly woody, with a spicy kick and a lingering touch of dried fruits, medicinal notes, and molasses. The integration of alcohol is seamless, presenting all flavors with finesse and balance, though some might find it lacks a certain complexity compared to its younger counterparts. This 6-year-old rum is a commendable effort by Worthy Park, consistently delivering quality and flavor that never disappoints. Perfect for both seasoned rum aficionados and those new to the wonders of Jamaican rum.
