Appleton Estate Signature Blend

I recently got into rum, and unfortunately all the other six rums I tried during the first period had significant amounts of added sugar (between 20 and 50 g/L). This was the only exception, at <3 g/L. That makes this one very different from the others. More "savory" almost, more deep and much more characteristic, and infinitely less sweet. I do like it though, and find the caramel nose and taste interesting, and I am absolutely looking forward to trying a more aged one, 8 or 12 year for instance.

Really? Bought it for cocktails, enjoyed it neat. Very pleasant surprise! 5.6 is way too low for this Jamaican spirit.

This is a good rum for its price point in my opinion. It doesn't try to be fancy, it just tastes like rum.

Meh. For all the hype around Jamaican funk, I was not very impressed with this bottle. I considered giving it a 6, but honestly it is a good mixer, so I settled on 7. I think I just wanted more character given that it's a Jamaican rum. If you don't mind spending a little more on your mixing rum for cocktails, this is honestly a great starting point. It goes well in just about everything, just don't expect it to blow you away.

This is the rum that changed my view on rums and got me into exploring more. Mix it, sip it, admire it. I just miss the old bottle design...

Look, if u want a nice rum to mix and enjoy a session on this may be for you.

It's the cheapest in the appletons range we have available here.

I personally found it average, a mixer is a must. I wouldn't buy it again, for the same price you can get a better rum from a lesser known brand.

I would mark this slightly better than captain Morgan's/kraken etc. Not great but not the worst in the world

Può andar bene per shot o per utilizzarlo in qualche cocktail

Nice mixing rum. I have no problem sipping it straight, though definitely not Appleton's best for that. A little funk in the aroma, which is a bit harsh. Perfect for one of the main rums in a Mai Tai (or almost any other Tiki style drink for that matter). Good price point. Cheers!

This is my first Jamaican rum. It was interesting to try. I really like it with cocktails like daiquiri, mojito.
