Worthy Park is an iconic Jamaican distillery, founded in the 1670s. The sugar industry developed there from 1710, with the start of molasses rum distillation shortly after, making Worthy Park Estate the oldest Jamaican distillery still in operation. The estate has been managed by only three distinct families: the Price family, whose Francis Price was the first owner, having received the property as a reward for services rendered to the British Crown. In 1863, the estate passed to the Talbot family, then, since 1918, it has belonged to the Clarke family. Between 1950 and 2005, distillation was halted by order of the Jamaican government, although sugar production continued. Distillation is carried out exclusively in a traditional double pot still copper still, essential for producing authentic and powerful Jamaican rums. At Worthy Park Estate, environmental preservation is a major priority, integrated into all strategic and operational decisions of the company, making this estate an example of sustainable development in the rum world.
