The Appleton Estate Jamaica Extra 43% 700ml is a vintage gem from the 1980s, produced by the renowned J. Wray & Nephew Ltd. distillery in the heart of Jamaica. Boasting an ABV of 43%, this rum is a testament to the rich tradition and craftsmanship of the Appleton Estate. It’s highly recommended to let the rum rest for at least 15 minutes before nosing and sipping to fully appreciate its depth and complexity. Often referred to as a “Super Sipper,” this rum is impressive not only for its price but also for its multifaceted profile that has stood the test of time.
The notable aromas include orange notes mingled with toasted aromas, vanilla, cinnamon, hints of nuttiness, and subtle metallic hints.
You can expect a blend of dried dates, dark chocolate, licorice, caramel, orange peel, and raisin flavors, offering a balanced and layered profile.
The finish features toasted notes, oak, spice, dark chocolate, and lingering fruit and barrel flavors.
