Rum Shark Appleton Jamaica (Single Cask Selection) 2010
Most enjoy the fruity Appleton character, bourbon‑like nose and honest dryness. Critics find the alcohol too present and complexity limited. Overall seen as a solid but not standout cask‑strength Jamaican.
Fans of drier, cask‑strength Appleton-style Jamaicans who enjoy tropical fruit over heavy funk and don’t mind a bit of alcohol punch.

Wieder mal übertreiben es die Jungs von Rum Shark mit dem Alkoholgehalt…
Semi mild, but the technical tale is too much for me
Very nice. Strong with the typical Appleton background.
