Appleton Estate Rare Casks 12-Year

I want to try this brand, because is from Jamaica. Taste is really smooth depend of age of rum.

I am not actually a big specialist in aged or expensive rums but i supposed that it should be good according to local reviews. The flavour is strange, i am not sure it`s a banana tones seems like cask`s wall or something synthetical not very good.Maybe it`s common taste for this manufacutre i don`t know for sure. But what more surprised me - it`s how it feels like. It`so smooth, well ballanced and there is almost no alchohol bite. Very cool. Defintely one of the best fo me so far.

This is a good rum, and I recommend people try it. Personally I like Zacapa 23 and Flor De Cana 12 better, but still think this is a good one for the liquor cabinet.

At 86 proof, it's a little strong, but the flavor more than makes up for that. Bright and clean, with a fruity finish. No molassas and not too sweet. Pairs well with a medium to strong cigar (See photo).

Jedna z velkých klasik, když se nemůžu rozhodnout jestli whisky nebo rum, můžu použít appleton. Dřevo, ovoce, pomeranče, decentně oříšky. Pro mě to, ale není funky styl, jak tu zmiňují někteří. Na to jsou na Jamajce jiní.

Was the second ever rum I tried and was fantastic, haven’t had much of it so can’t comment on the flavours but boy is it a lovely rum

New here and exploring. Picked this one up on recommendations and am very happy with it. For a Jamaican it’s not too funky (and I love funk) but has an oaky mellowness to it that I quite enjoy. Almost a Cuvée finish that goes down smooth and lets you know it’s got some good age to it. One I will definitely be keeping on my shelf.

I think this one is real treasury of Appleton Estate production. This rum is much smoother than Signature (Signature Blend/VX), but at the same time it doesn't yield to Signature in aroma and flavour intensivity.

After having it about 18 months in my cabinet, I had to just dump this one, I wanted to like it and never could. The Appleton Joy on the other hand is one of the best rums ever made - to me.

I love Appleton Estate distillery and the 21 years old is my favourite rum ever. This 12 years old rum is its younger brother and fortunately it is much cheeper. A very complex rum, funky (especially in the aftertaste) and oaky in both nose and mouth. It has its sweetness, given by some vanilla flavours, but I found the 21 years old to be much sweeter. Surely a top quality jamaican rum
