Appleton Estate Extra 12-Year

Inte så söt rom, ganska mycket fatsmak vilket gör den som perfekt ingrediens till en old fashioned!

I've tasted this back to back with El Dorado's 12 and 15 to compare. I slightly preferred this one over the other two. I just tried to buy another bottle and the webshop sent me the "Rare Blend 12 year" version. They say it's supposed to be the same content in a different bottle... we'll see.

Heel lekkere nippertje met een mooi afgeronde afdronk, wel beetje chemisch in de neus, maar zeker iets voor mensen die doorheen de massa zoeken

Un ron que para ser de 12 años no demuestra una dulzura amaderada, manteniendo su atrevimiento en la fuerza de la juventud que ya no debe mostrar.

Attractive appearance - dark rich coppery/red hue its very nice and does suggest the minimum 12 years aging.
On the nose ... has a firm spicy backbone with a deep dark brown sugar and strong indications of baking spice alongside. Oak tannin and citrus zests arise in the aroma as well as a darker more burnt smell akin to charred coconut and caramelized sugars.
These lighter flavours included a light hint of tangy citrus, a touch of spicy orange peel, a mild walnut and toasted coconut. These milder flavours keep the rum interesting, and I seem to be enjoying this a little more each time I return to the rum.

It's classic fruity Jamaica with more spice, wood and long warm aftertaste. Excellent mixer and nice sipper.

Bought in Jamaica during a fantastic trip; this bottle of rum is a part of souvenir. Strong enough as member of Jamaican rums, the taste is at the end a long chart of persistent aroma of leather, riped fruits. Invite your best friends & share this bottle. Enjoy !

A bit of funk on the nose, woody, fruity, spicy on the palate, and most of all superbly balanced. Excellent value rum that can be recommended to everyone!

Bought this bottle with high expectations. It's OK but no where near what I was hoping for at the price and age. I'm no connoisseur, but I do drink a fair amount of aged rum and found this to be on the low side of middle of the pack

This is my go to rum. Drink neat on the rocks or with Coke. Never disappointed. Slightly sweet aroma and flavor
