Absolutely delicious! Purchased a sample from Master of Malt for £13.

Stunning liquid very nice. Smooth and complex, oaky and sweet but not too sweet. It's just so nice!

There is nothing about the Appleton 21 year old rum to complain about. A sipping only rum that defines fine rum. Joyce Spence is a master blender that has only elevated her skills, applied them to Appleton rums, and has staked Jamaican rums as one of the finest spirits on the planet. Spence was not around when I first visited Appleton in 1991 and my mind was blown with a taste of the 50 year Appleton at the time of our tour. My second visit in 1997 was my first meeting with Mrs. Spence. Didn't have the opportunity to taste the 50 year Appleton at that 1997 visit, but the 30 year was available and was absolutely delicious. A small amount in a rocks glass with one large cube of ice, let sit for 5 minutes, swirl and enjoy! It is truly one of the best experiences one can have when imbibing a fine rum. Exceeds aged Scotches, and Cognacs! One taste and your fiends will quickly be Rum aficionados. Enjoy the best rums in the world that only Appleton Estate can provide.

This is amazing, with the proper blend of bite and sweetness. I’ve enjoyed Appleton over the years, but my brother and Sister-in-law (she’s Jamaican) introduced me to this rum and it is some of best I’ve had. I’m a great lover of Gosling but Appleton has really grown on me over the years.

As others have said, this is full of oak flavor. There is a slight sweetness at the end. Overall, a nice rum to sip on it's own. However, with the price, I think the 12yr is more bang for your buck and just as pleasing for those who like drier rums.

Asi je to dobry rum, ale me osobne teda moc nesedi. 100€ uz bych za nej asi nedal.

I saw this in a drinking establishment and after reading the reviews thought I’d give it a try. The pour was generous but not worth the price. While it has an “aged” flavor I would never think that it was more than 5 years old. The taste was also light. This is my second Appleton. Both times I was highly disappointed. After being on this forum for so long, it is clear that there is huge polarity of opinions regarding rums which I appreciate. However, I am going to avoid the Appleton brand from hear on out.

En rom der er lidt stærk i starten men efter lidt tid bliver mere mild. god lang eftersmag og tilpas sød.

This is an exceptionally smooth rum. Oak and fruit notes on the nose. A sweet but strong initial taste but a wonderfully warm finish.

Amongst my top 3 rums. Delicious flavour and a treat to sip. Not cheap or easy to find, but worth the splurge for your collection.

This rum was a disappointment for me and ended up serving as base for mixes.

It's lightly sweet, not very smooth, with extremely short tail.

While this works in a mixed drinks, drinking this neat just does not work for me.
