Appleton Estate Extra 12-Year

This is always my go to rum if I can find a restaurant or bar that serves it. Beautiful dark golden color perfect blend of heat and smoothness. Great neat, on-the rocks or mixed.

Pleasant fruity notes in the aroma and chocolate aftertaste.

Not too sweet or strong, don’t let the smell fool you. Let it breath for a couple of minutes and then try. It has a very interesting mix between older and younger rums (this rum is a blend). Definitely worth trying!

Not a sipping rum, too harsh for me. But works very well for drinks.

Expected fuller creamy flavour
Very brandy like hard no softness,lack of sweetness

This rum was one I was really excited to get my hands on and I was not disappointed. It was definitely spicier and more spiky than the other rums I've had, but I loved it. Its a challenging rum with notes of Christmas spices, not for everyone, but perfect for me.

not that amazing neat but a high end ingredient for mixing tiki drinks, pretty good in a mai tai especially with clement vsop. a bit too much burnt sugar/fruit flavor for my taste.

Appleton makes two different 12 year blends that l am aware is. This one is not sold in Ontario, Canada, but a friend brought me this back from a trip. Very nice Jamaican style rum for sipping.

Chutove hodne silny, stipe na jazyku. Prijemna chut bez nezadoucich slozek. Velice suchy rum.

Mindre sötman utifrån Jamaicas regelverk som gör den lite mindre bra än den kunnat vara, fungerar fint att dricka bar men inte inom de 10 i topp för mig.
