Appleton Estate Extra 12-Year rum

Appleton Estate Extra 12-Year

Jamaica | Aged | 43% ABV

Appleton Estate 12-Year Rum is a blend of several rums aged between 12 and 18 years in American oak barrels after being distilled using small-batch copper pot stills.

The rum is produced on the Appleton Estate, which sits in the Nassau Valley in Jamaica. The estate’s origins date back as far as 1655 when the English overthrew the Spanish to rule the island and Frances Dickinson, grandfather of the distillery’s founders, received the land as a reward for his role in the overthrow.

I bought this rum after reviews from this site. Appleton Estate 12 yo disappointed me. A very spicy, woody taste and in taste is predominant alcohol. More like whiskey than rum.

I exclusively sip rum, don't much like it mixed at all so my ratings are based on drinking it straight up. This rum is good, but I prefer it on the rocks, which isn't how I tend to drink. Good price, but not likely I'll seek it out again.

Not for straight up drinking for me but good enough to blend with coke

Now this is a good rum! You could sip this one easily enough if that's how you like it. This one is up in my favs. A little over priced, but better to spend money on something I can enjoy too, instead of something I just end up giving away.

I would drink this rum with a mixer. Usually with Cola as I like more of a sweet rum.

This is just my opinion, you should try the rums you are curious about as we all have different taste buds :)

Hope this helps rum enthusiast.

Deep copper colour; vanilla bean, caramel/molasses, buckwheat honey and spicy cinnamon/nutmeg aromas; quite elegant on palate with warm, mildly spicy, brown sugar flavours and a smooth, lingering oaky finish.

If you are looking for a strong rum, this it a good option and does as a good sipping role.

This is probably not fair but I take Appleton rums for granted because of their mass market appeal. Twelve year is very smooth and is a big mistake wasting it as mixer. Your bar needs a spot for this one.

Voici un rhum qui en matière d'arômes est assez riche.

Premières impressions, au nez, il est puissant et boisé avec des notes plus douces de vanille. En bouche, on retrouve ce côté vanille-boisé et des notes de café. La finale est assez longue et intense.

Un rhum vraiment intéressant. A goûter !!

Très bon rhum sur le miel, les épices douces. Excellent rapport qualité/prix, pour boire un bon verre dans se prendre la tête

I like rich and dark profile of it. Woody tanins brown sugar. It is not sweet. Rum is better on nose than in mouth.
