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 wouldn't mind beeing served one of these but I will never choose this one over another rum sometime soon. It's an OK rum, but there is nothing exciting or characteristic about it unfortunately.

It is a strong and rugged rum. On the rocks is perfect!

This bottle always has a place on my shelf, very well rounded with many subtleties if you take your time with it.

Another excellent Jamaican rum, one of my favorite sipping rums but it also mixes well.

Great sipper, pronounced oak flavour with brown sugar hint. Smooth and not at all sweet.
As previous reviewers have stated, this rum starts a little harsh and reminiscent of a whiskey. With that said, it has a nice finish with a multitude of flavors coming through. I like this rum both for sipping and for mixing. I also find that the more I drink this, the bigger fan I become of it!

Got a bottle of this for a birthday present and was pleased to have received it. A bit of a bite at first but has a very nice finish. Not real sweet but hits all the targets though not in the middle on the paper.

Gillar denna romen skarpt. Den är lite dyr på SB men går att få billigt i Tyskland och då är den helt klart värd pengarna

I could take 15 minutes to tell you the story on how it was a pain to get one bottle of Appleton 12 yr through the Pennsylvania Liqour Control Store.
EDIT: revisited this rum again and dropped my rating from 6 to 5. Just a harsh rum that for $4 more I can get outstanding Plantation 20th Anniversary.
Left it sit for a while before sipping and thought it was a little strong and harsh. Dropped half an ice cube in and what a difference. Very nice sipper.
