Worthy Park Estate, founded in 1670, is Jamaica's last remaining single estate rum producer. Located at 1,200 feet elevation in Lluidas Vale, this 10,000-acre estate integrates sugarcane cultivation, sugar factory, and 100% pot still distillery. Under the stewardship of Gordon Clarke, fourth generation of the family that has owned the property since 1918, Worthy Park crafts rums of exceptional authenticity and purity, crowned Rum Producer of the Year at the IWSC Awards in both 2023 and 2025.

L'histoire du domaine

The story of Worthy Park begins with the British conquest of Jamaica: in 1670, Lieutenant Francis Price was granted this land as a reward for his service to Cromwell during the capture of the island from the Spanish. Commercial sugarcane cultivation began in 1720, and by 1741, the earliest written records of rum production appear in the archives — the earliest such record among Jamaica's currently operating distilleries. For two centuries, the estate weathered the vicissitudes of the Caribbean sugar industry, changing hands only three times. In 1918, Frederick Lister Clarke purchased the property for £44,000. His three sons continued the family legacy until post-war overproduction of Jamaican rum forced the distillery to cease all rum production in 1962. The estate continued to produce sugar for over four decades. In 2004, Gordon Clarke, great-grandson of Frederick, convinced his family to revive rum production. A state-of-the-art distillery was built, and in 2007, the first bottles of Rum-Bar left Worthy Park once more, marking the beginning of a spectacular renaissance.

Le terroir

Nestled in the heart of Lluidas Vale, in the parish of St. Catherine, Worthy Park spans over 10,000 acres, with 4,000 dedicated to sugarcane cultivation. Perched at 1,200 feet elevation, the estate benefits from an exceptional microclimate — warm humid days, cool dry nights, and 60 inches of annual rainfall — that optimizes cane growth and imparts a singular aromatic intensity to the rums. Worthy Park is Jamaica's only producer to control the entire production chain, from field to bottle. The sugar factory, ranked number one on the island for efficiency every year since 1968, processes cane into sugar and molasses, the latter piped underground one kilometre to the distillery. Fermentations, lasting from 30 hours to three weeks depending on the marks produced, are conducted with indigenous yeasts cultivated from the estate's own sugarcane. Distillation is carried out exclusively in a 100% copper pot still with double retort, built by Forsyths in Scotland. The estate's approach to sustainability is comprehensive: bagasse fuels the boilers that generate electricity for the site, and the 18th-century aqueduct still supplies water to all facilities.

Les vins

The Worthy Park range is built around two main lines: Rum-Bar, celebrating traditional Jamaican rum bars, and Worthy Park Single Estate, the premium signature of the estate. The Rum-Bar expressions — White Overproof (63% ABV, blend of five unaged marks), Silver, Gold (4 years aged), and Rum Cream — embody Jamaican aromatic power in accessible formats. The Worthy Park Single Estate line reveals the full amplitude of the terroir: Select (blend of 4 to 12 year rums), Reserve (6 to 10 years), 109 Dark Rum (54.5% ABV, blend of 3-year aged light rums and unaged high-ester rums), 12 Year aged in ex-bourbon casks under tropical climate. The Special Cask Series explores finishes in Port or Madeira casks. The Worthy Park style is immediately recognisable: explosive tropical fruit (banana, pineapple), spice notes, velvety texture, remarkable balance between power and finesse. All rums are pot-still distilled, aged on site, bottled without additives or colouring — an uncompromising purity that has earned the estate worldwide recognition.

Le vigneron

Gordon Clarke represents the fourth generation of the family at the helm of Worthy Park since his great-grandfather Frederick acquired the estate in 1918. Trained in business administration at Florida International University, this passionate Jamaican has devoted most of his professional life to the family estate. After five years in the sugar division and a stint at J. Wray & Nephew where he discovered rum distillation and blending, Gordon returned to Worthy Park in 2004 with a clear vision: to build a state-of-the-art distillery and create Jamaican rum brands capable of competing with the island's giants. He convinced his family, designed the project with an obsession for efficiency and authenticity, and personally oversaw the construction of the new distillery inaugurated in 2005. Today, as CEO and co-managing director, Gordon Clarke combines managerial rigour with intimate knowledge of the terroir. Alongside him, Alexander Kong, commercial manager in charge of spirits, has been driving the estate's international ambition since 2015 and embodies the voice of Worthy Park to enthusiasts worldwide. Under their leadership, the estate has conquered over thirty countries and won the IWSC Rum Producer of the Year title twice (2023 and 2025).
