It wasn't what I was hoping for for the age, better luck next time.
Itโs a decent rum,you can buy better for โthis price...Itโs definitely a sipping rum..complex with a long aftertaste...I like it BUT there is something odd when I taste it...I canโt describe it but something destroys my taste in it
Assemblage de rhums de mรฉlasse de 12 ans, titre 43ยฐ.
Design : belle prรฉsentation, รฉtui et belle bouteille 'appleton estate', le rhum a une jolie couleur ambre.

Bouche : miel/caramel, huileux puis boisรฉ, suivi de tanins et d'une forte prรฉsence de l'alcool.
Finale : long, notes de rรฉglisse.
Un peu sucrรฉ (caramel?), cet appleton estate 12 ans est trรจs recommandable.
Everything else has been said. Man that acidity really telling of the fact that there must be some rum in this much older than 12yo.
It started good with a fruity sweetness, raisins and a little vanille. Candy syrup also, lots of alcohol. After a few sips it all seems to dissipate and just the alcohol burn remains...
This is clearly well made. Smooth, no alcohol burn. Mixes well. You need to decide if you like that funk. You notice it in the aroma and on the rocks. Great rum n coke, can take over w ginger beer. I still can't decide if I like this funk, but the rum n coke is really good. Try it make your own decisions
At $32 in Ohio (4/19) this one is a great bargain! Rich aroma, lightly sweet and fruity. Warming alcohol in the nose. Light sweetness, oaky, vanilla, lightly fruity. Hints of molasse.s Good body and warming on the palate. Expected lightly funky finish but pleasant. A good daily sipper and a great mixer. Great value for the cost. I'd think a really good entry rum for those wanting to try better aged rums. Well balanced. This one will be on hand as long as I can get it. Recommend!
Edit 10/16/19 - Every time I revisit this rum I am impressed. This isn't huge on Hogo but it's there and a great way to get your feet wet on a good Jamaican. Great as an every day sipper and superb as a mixer. Hard to beat for the price. I stand solid on this as a very strong 7 - 7.5. Everyone should have it on the shelf.
I tried a sip. Fantastic. I mixed it with a little. Delicious. Really nice at this price level.

Definitively Jamaican- the funk

I'm surprised that the dominant flavor of this rum reminds me of El Dorado 8 year rum but with a lighter body less sweet finish. I've never been a big fan of Jamaican rums or Appleton in particular but I decided to give this less common 12 year rare blend a try. It's smooth and doesn't have much burn to it at all, however it's just doesn't really fit in my highly prefered category (I'm more of a Cuban, Bajan, or Venezualen style guy I guess). Good to mix just not my favorite flavors in here to sip. I will update this rating as I try more of it bc i often find that I have to transition into liking other rums after each bottle I try. Update: it had grown on me and wen I smell t I say "mmmm". Good stuff for having no added sugar at all. It's definitely a funky fruity whiskey tasting English style rum that has bold flavor.
