Appleton Estate 8 Year Old Reserve Rum – A Celebration of Jamaican Craftsmanship

Created by the renowned Master Blender Joy Spence, this rum is a masterful blend of pot and column still distillates. Each drop is aged for a minimum of 8 years in the warm, tropical climate of Jamaica. Therefore resulting in a refined and complex flavor profile.
Aged to Perfection
