Episode #34: Meet Worthy Park’s New Senior Blender, Craig Nicholson

 

In this episode, we get caught up on everything new happening at Worthy Park with one of the Jamaica distillery’s newest team members—Craig Nicholson! As quality control manager and senior blender, Craig has a hand in just about everything the distillery puts out, from Rum Bar products to the distillery’s eponymous lineup of aged releases. Prior to joining Worthy Park, Craig spent over a decade working for National Rums of Jamaica in roles at both Clarendon and Long Pond distilleries. We discuss everything from Craig’s journey into the rum industry, to the differences between working at Worthy Park vs. NRJ, how he is acclimating himself to the many varieties of rums produced at Worthy Park, his preferences between the distillery’s marks, high ester rum production, Worthy Park’s latest releases (like Worthy Park 109 and Select), and much more.
