Appleton Estate 21-Year

Jamaica | Aged

Distilled using small-batch copper pot stills uniquely designed for Appleton Estate, this rum is a blend of several rums aged 21 years in American oak barrels. Once blended, the rum is re-casked for two years to marry the flavors.

Appleton Estate 21-year rum is produced in Jamaica on one of the country’s oldest and most renowned sugar estates. Each bottle is individually numbered and comes with a signed aging certificate by master blender Joy Spence.

De Appleton Estate 21 Years heeft een volle koperen kleur en een leeftijd van 21 jaar. De rum geeft een prachtige nootachtige smaak met hints van vanille en sinaasappel. De zachte en fijne smaken die hierbij om de hoek komen kijken zijn amandel, cocos en fijn eiken. Deze bijzonder oude en inmiddels zeldzame 21 jaar oude Caribische vriend is alleen voor de echte fijn proevers en collecters, met zijn zoete afdronk van bruine suiker blijft dit één van de beste rum die er is.

Did like a lot. This is one of my favourites -so far. Appleton 21 is not as sweet as you would expect based on the history and age. Some might say that it should actually be sweater. I find this product to be well balanced Rum which is worth of purchasing every time when possible.
I used to rate this to 9 but lately after tasting it I do have to drop it to 8

Yesterday , I had the opportunity to taste the Appleton Estate 12y and today is the turn of the 21y. I'm now delighted to be able to taste the 30y !
The 21y has a nice amber color and offers long and persistent legs on your glass.Smooth when the burn is gone, spicy with a wood flavor well present and long and pleasant after taste.
A little bit to expensive for me as daily sipper but definitively added on my wishlist Thanks again to my dear colleague for this discovery....

Een zeer lekker rum complex. veel smaken iets voor kenners. Perfect met een medium sterke sigaar

Nutty, oaky, with toffee in my glass, the nose gives no hint to the complexity in the glass.

Very good sip rum. A never really like Appleton's rum as much of mainstream critics, I just think they lack personality or specificity. Nonetheless a solid complex rum that every rum lover will enjoy.

I originally tasted this paired against El Dorado 21 and quite enjoyed it. I then bought a bottle and was not that impressed. There was a large amount of white floating sediment (pretty sure it's ok perhaps sugar crystallisation as I still drank it and I'm still alive?). Taste didn't wow me compared to El Dorado 21 and Zacapa XO which I also bought bottles of. Also I contacted Appleton Estate about quality issues and no response. Their facebook feed link from their website no longer worked and last tweet was a year ago so not sure what's happening there

This is a very complex rum - one that tends to be underrated. There ist orange and oak in the nose, more oak and some cacao and nuts in the mouth, pepper for the finish. Not for you, if you only like sweet rums. A delicate blend, though.

Bien qu'il soit passablement plus sec que les autres rhums industriels, il n'en reste pas moins qu'il est dans une classe à part. 9/10
