Appleton Estate Rare Blend 12-Year

Best rum I've had yet. Better than their signature blend. Way better than Captain Morgan's. Has nice amount of alcohol content. Not too strong of a bite with good amount of flavors.

There is nothing like that Jamaican dunder funk. Appleton Estate 12 Year Old Rare Blend isn't the funkiest cat in town but he sure is smooth. At $34.00 per 750ml, Appleton Estate 12 crushes the competition in it's price range and many others that are well above it. I can't get enough of the funk, and at this price it is one that I can always (and will) keep on the shelf. If you enjoy funky Jamaican rums, I think the Appleton Estate 12 year old Rare Blend is a "must try".

This one exceed my expectations for this price. Good sipper

It's great stuff. No added sugar, smooth as can be. Wow

Zapach: Tropikalne owoce pieczone na półmisku: Banan, ananas, pomarańcza, Delikatna słodycz podbita ciepłą wanilią, kawa z mlekiem, skórzaste nuty, ciemna czekolada, orzech laskowy.

Smak: Dębina, gorzka czarna herbata, herbatniki, spalone ciasto drożdżowe, kwiaty, gorzka czekolada, skórka pomarańczy, melasa z trzciny cukrowej, skórzasta oraz lekko trawiasta.

Ten rum do już dobry przykład jak może smakować dobrej jakości odleżakowany rum funky z Jamajki. Smak jest bogaty oraz dojrzały. nie ma tu zauważalnej słodyczy - jedynie aromat słodkiej melasy. W Drinku dominuje i daje mocno od leżakowane odczucia, przez to nie jest najlepszym mikserem ale taka jest też właściwość jamajskich rumów - dominują w drinkach.

OCENA: 80/100

This is the first rum that was not sweet at all. It has very dark mysterious notes, wood, oak, smoke, burnt chocolate, tobacco its like a strong masculine parfume and I like it a lot.
It is a little bit harsh neath but it does not bother me at all on the contrary it just ads to the whole experience.

I've drank the 21and think for a third of the price this holds it own, dry and bold with a great nose it's a must try.

I thought this one won't be good when I first taste it but on the second/third thought this one is really good. Recommended to leave it breath for 5-10 minutes before drinking...

The rare 12 year old Appletons is smooth enough to enjoy it's fruit, wood & molasses depth straight, or mix with lime & ginger to get through the bottle in double quick time.

A nice classic Jamaican. Not too sweet and with a fine taste.
