5.8/10

Two Appleton in a glass today: Rum Shark: The nose is alcoholically sharp and stings unpleasantly. It continues in the same way on the palate. Unfortunately far too alcoholic. Some fruit and floral notes. Not even that good. Hearts 2002: This is a completely different caliber. Chocolaty, woody and garnished with dark fruits. Great rum that has become even better in the bottle.

7.2/10

Quite alcoholic, astringent, spicy, juniper, slightly overripe fruit, somehow a mixture of Clarendon and Worthy Park.

Strong Appleton signature, baked apples on the nose and on the taste. Bold and dry. Nice drinking.

Distillery

Appleton Estate 

Avg Rating 7.7/10 91 Rums

Appleton Estate is the face of Jamaican rum to the world. Distilling in the St. Elizabeth hills since at least 1749, it makes close to a third of all the island's rum and is the only brand in the global top ten with serious pot-still character. Its master blender, Joy Spence, was the first woman to hold that title anywhere in spirits.
