This a truly great sipping rum. I only drink it neat, no ice. The smoky-sweet, yet manly aroma will make you love it.

Tasted side by side with Royal Jamaican and Monymusk special reserve with four other people. This was the clear loser. It’s sippable, but barely. 7 would be an extremely generous score.

I haven't try previous version of this rum so I have not to compare but this one is very good. I am big fan of english-style rums and especialy jamaican ones. I liked their VX/signature blend but they are good only for mixing. They are was too rough and hasn't fit to drink neat. This Rare Blend is better. It's not too harsh but it could keep its jamaocan nature hidden in the woods.

Best rum I have tried so far. No added sugar, but not too sweat. Spicy and strong. Absolutely top for the price.

Nice rum sips well but personally rather it as a fine mixer rum for good quality cocktails ! Comes in a fine presentation box I use mine as a coin pot :)

Funky Jamaica mixed with a lot of dark fruits, oak and spices. Charming and mysterious.

Depuis mes récents débuts dans le rhum, j'ai plutôt testé (et apprécié) des rhums assez sucrés: diplomatico, el dorado 12, centenario 20 emperor sherry finish... A la lecture de certains articles sur la quantité parfois impressionnante de sucre ajoutée à ces rhums, j'ai voulu en tester un qui se montre irréprochable de ce côté là: je m'attendais donc à un rhum très sec, moins facile à boire et moins dans mes goûts...
Et là, agréable surprise: pas du tout!
En fait, on retrouve dans ce rhum des saveurs similaires à celles de l'eldorado 12 (caramel, fruits exotiques). Certes, un peu moins de corps et de rondeur vu l'absence de sucre, mais malgré tout une belle douceur en bouche et beaucoup de caractère!
Sans renier l'eldorado 12 qui est un rhum que j'apprécie beaucoup, à choisir entre les deux, , j'accorderais une petite longueur d'avance à cet Appleton Estate compte tenu de son côté plus "naturel" et moins "trafiqué". La preuve qu'on peut créer un rhum tout à fait intéressant sur le plan gustatif, sans pour autant le "doper".
Si on ajoute à ça un prix très raisonnable, je ne peux que vous conseiller de le tester!

This is something different than what I usually drink. Im more into the spanish type of rum but this one really had me open my eyes to jamaican rum and the english style. But the screw cork is a big minus!

Bought this with some vouchers i had and for £38 it’s not that great. Quite rough on the palate and with some slight burn. It’s ok but not great.

Needs to breathe a bit before sipping. Good for the price and worth buying.
