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.

Every so often I grab another $50 top-shelfer and give it a shot. Appleton 12 was the biggest disappointment yet. It was barely tolerable as a mixer for me... just too harsh, tasted like a cheap version of Bacardi.

Completely versatile, a great sipper or mixer. Dry on the palate as opposed to a sweet nose. Hints of banana and vanilla.

Not sure if I was expecting more Capt Morgan than a nice dark ages rum but I was pleasantly surprised. Definitely something I'll go back to. Smooth but a nice bite to start.

Not fad, but it doesn't gave the richness and depth of flavors that I consider to be indicitive of quality rum.

Non-sweet, whisky-like rum with character and complexity ... tho a bit harsh, and a bit dry in the after-taste, with an imperfect nose from my bottle. Yet clearly a pedigreed item. Maybe I have not outgrown my sweet tooth enough yet for this one.

Being new to premium rums I realize my taste profile isn't as well defined as other that have tasted more spirits.

I find the nose buttery and creamy. The taste is pleasing, but I'm still finding it hard to put my finger on the flavours other than oat.

Strongly recommend.

A classic jamaican pot-still. A little sweet for a jamaican rum, but not flavourfull enough to compensate the taste of alcohol.
Not my kind of rum yet. Would like to try the others from Appleton though.

I like this rum, it's smooth to drone at and mixes nicely with ginger and lime. I don't like the bottle, though. Too feminine.

It's my first Appleton Rum and it's an interesting one. Strong vanilla flavor, oak, coffe or cocoa. Brown sugar or caramel aftertaste. Good suprise and discovery. I hope to taste the 21y and 30y.
