Appleton Signature Single Estate Jamaica Rum

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

"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"

"Gives you an idea of what Javanese rum can be. But it's too sour and too fizzy for me, despite the low ABV. It is certainly designed exclusively for drinks."

"The nose has some crisp apple and foam banana notes. Sweet vanilla and oak in the background. Quite subtle. The palate has a sweet honey note that is most present but then some toasted marshmallows and ripe apricots. The finish is short but sweet, full of tannins and ends with earthy licorice. It's not bad. It's not going to blow your socks off. But can be sipped neat if required."

"Not super complex on the nose and surprisingly vanilla-dominated. Some weird candied sweetness. Very thin and flat in the mouth, but what there is to find is delicious. The finish is a little spicier but otherwise similar. It's nothing for me neat, but it's great for mixing."

"Aroma mild, mainly vanilla with molasses, a little coconut and something baked. Flavour mainly a mix of caramel and molasses, vanilla, some banana. Short finish more caramel with baking spices, light citrus and tropical fruit. A simple but fine rum."

"Solid entry-level Jamaican but still a bit very spicy and sour bitter ..."

"Meiner Meinung nach ein solider Rum. Grade für Einsteiger gut geeignet. In der Nase schon sehr fruchtig was sich auch im Geschmack abzeichnet.. zum Kontrast dazu leichte Süße und Karamell. Kann man trinken"

"Lovely for the pricepoint. A little okay with a distinct but subtle funkiness. Great for mixing."

"Good basic rum. Clean and tasty. Has some gentle fruity/ funky notes with vanilla and some sweet (honey) notes. It is quite subtle, verging on thin and I think the Appleton 8 year justifies its extra cost for the additional flavour intensity from a price to value perspective."

"Young and one-dimensional but makes a decent sipper"

"A solid mixer from Appleton. Not my first choice for sipping, but it will do in a pinch."

"Really good for mixing, good quality for price, workhouse for a lot of cocktails. Friendly for rum beginners"

"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."

"Suprisingly very good. Young age which is a major advantage because of the ester/solvent notes that appear and aren’t killed by barrel aldehydes. I personally liked it a lot. Affordable, smooth and estery. Thats a good bottle for sure"
