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.

Not as smooth as many, flavourful, but needs a mixer and lime/lemon

I like the nose and initial taste with a nice oaky and almost smokey flavor profile, and there is some other things going on, but it all faded pretty quick to me. So its ALMOST very good as a sipper, but doesn't have the staying power for me. But its good as a mixer in certain drinks. Maybe I have to try a different bottle as my experience with it was not like most of the descriptions and reviews I've seen.

Bought it because it seemed good value, based on its ratings and because it was measured on different websites for added sugar and it had none. Tastes good but not great. Wouldn't use it as a gift or when I have guests but perfect for a glass after a long day.

Я не понимаю откуда такой рейтинг у этого рома. Возможно мне попался контрафакт. Но это хуже чем какой-то дешманский бакарди

Solid rum and great value at 25 EUR in Germany
Sure it is oaky - bourbon barrel - heavy on vanilla and caramel
But you've gotta lov it

This is one of my go to rums in a mai tai. An excellent, funky, tasty jamaican rum!

Good rum, typical Jamaican
Just a bit better quality. Not bad for sipping. Mild cigar matches this one well.

This rum is incredibly smooth for the price range. Fantastic flavor, a little less nuance that Real McCoy 12 year, but significantly less bite. This can be a sipper which is rare for a $40 dollar rum, but isn't as full as something more expensive.

Every time I enjoy this, I can hear Joy Spence with that wonderful patois accent saying, "No added shu-gah!".

What a delightful creation. One of the few I enjoy neat.

Nose - Apricot, Oak, Molasses
Palate - Spice, Vanilla, Caramel, Orange

Long, outstanding finish.

This is a standard of excellence, top to bottom.

With the manipulations of some other heralded brands, I understand why a master artist like Ms. Spence could be vexed at uninformed comparisons.

As the title says, this was the rum I was drinking the night I lost my virginity.

Can’t say it was the most incredible experience and I think due to that I don’t look to fondly on this rum.
