Appleton Signature Single Estate Jamaica Rum

Solid, easy-drinking Jamaican entry with gentle funk, honeyed fruit and vanilla. Widely praised as great value and a reliable mixer, though many find it thin and lacking intensity for serious sipping.

Smells of fruit like guava and banana, slight woody hint and floral. Flavor is similar with spices hitting after a fruity start. Ends with ripe banana.

    Smells of fruit like guava and banana, slight woody hint and floral. Flavor is similar with spices hitting after a fruity start. Ends with ripe banana.

    I like this particular rum in a Daiquiri with a dash of demerara.

    Perfekt uum pur oder zum mixen mit cola oder in Cocktails Absolut zu empfehlen wenn jemand in das thema jamaika rum einsteigen möchte

    At the end. Quite sweet. Very unusual for Appleton. Otherwise there are nice fruity notes paired with light spice. A good price-performance ratio. However, too weak
