Nice round rum, bur definitely not extraordinary
Review by Filip Šikula
Another Appleton that surprises by tasting completely different from what you expect from Appleton. Personally, I was surprised by the amount of floral notes I sensed both on the nose and the palate, but it's a shame that these Appletons are so heavily diluted.

S 8.5 out of 10 belongs to the better ones that have come into my glass.
