Unique Selling Points
Authenticity: Appleton Estate is an authentic Jamaican Rum G.I. A legacy of making exceptional quality rum
awarded around the world and the oldest distillery in Jamaica and the second oldest in the world for rum-making,
a history over 260 years started in 1749. A combination of climate, soil and topography of Appleton Estate make it
one of the few rums in the world to claim "terroir" as a point of differentiation.
Premium: Not many rum producers, following strict regulations as the one in Jamaica, can claim a luxury product
as an authentic 21 years old rum. Also, the ageing in tropical climate makes the angel share (loss of liquid for
evaporation) significant to the end result. Only the finest rums are selected for Appleton Estate 21yo and for this
reason it received many accolades and it is one of the most renowned in the premium rum category.
Tasting Notes
Appearance: A coppery, tawny hue, with excellent purity.
Nose: Powerful, yet with delicate citrus, spice, and woody notes.
Palate: Mellow orange peel, deep vanilla, rich nutmeg, warm coffee, and cocoa notes.
Aftertaste: Long and dry, with a brown sugar sweetness that does not claw at the palate
