This was a solid rum. A little on the light and simple side. It dosent seem like it’s trying to do too much but what it is doing, it does well. Very enjoyable but probably not totally worth it personally.

7.7/10

Our second tasting last weekend was a 1990 tasting where we brought our 1990 bottles and that was a lot of fun because we had so many bottles we need to do a few more tastings :-) This on i heard is pretty rare but it's very fruity from nose to finish. Barrel, vanilla and chocolate joins in and the finish is nice with some added caramel.

Very solid rum, really enjoyed it. The aging picks up the barrel in a pleasant way.

Appleton Estate 

Avg Rating 8.0/10 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.
