TWO SISTERS AND A RUM BAR!
British poet Lord Byron, born circa 1788, during the height of West Indian sugar and rum production, certainly knew what he was talking about, which is not particularly surprising considering the role of the British in the region’s history as sugar- and rum-producing societies.

RUM JOURNEY 2015 DAY
Lasciamo Kingston in direzione di St. Catherine a Ewarton dove Gordon Clarke, direttore della distilleria, ci attende nel primo pomeriggio per la nostra visita a Worthy Park. Appena usciti dalla capitale ed attraversato il frenetico quartiere di Spanish Town iniziamo ad assaporare la vera Jamaica.
IN SEARCH OF WORTHY PARK
As we all loaded onto the Rum Bus and looked at our map of Jamaica, we knew that our commute would be bumpy, hot, long, excruciating. and totally worth it. Our destination was Worthy Park Estate, makers of Rum-Bar Rum, Rum-Bar Gold and Rum-Bar Rum Cream.
INSIDE WORTHY PARK ESTATE
We finally made it to Worthy Park where we were greeted by Gordon Clarke, Director & Distillery Manager. He welcomed us to his office and we all gathered around a conference table and listened as he told us about the Estate’s interesting history.
