Beverage Testing Institute 89 Points "Aromas and flavors of bananas foster in a copper pot, dried papaya, grass, and spices with a silky, bright, dryish medium body and an even, carefree finish that exhibits accents of coconut water, roasted nut skin, pencil shavings, and minerals. A soft, lighter-styled pot still Rum that will play nicely in cocktails."
This multi-award winning blend of 15 choice aged rums is the first member of the Appleton Estate family of aged rums. With a sophisticated flavour profile, it truly has become the rum of choice for quality cocktail mixing around the world. It adds the most amazing and unique characteristics to classic cocktails and offers a multitude of layered flavours. But that's what you'd expect when Joy Spence sets her more than 20 years of blending expertise loose on 15 hand-selected Appleton Rums.
The first nosing passes find gentle scents of light spice and brown sugar; aeration reveals solid aromas of molasses and buttered toast. The palate entry is delicious, rich and toasty; the midpalate features elegant flavors of toasted honey-wheat bread, honey and refined sugar. The finish is more bittersweet than sweet. Superb/Highly Recommended
