Appleton Estate Kingston 62

In a blind taste test with friend this beat Abuelo XV Sherry Cask, Zacapa 23, Diplomático Reserva and Flor De Cana 12. Prior to the blind test and knowing the price it was considered the worst by the same audinece. Just shows the price influences perception. It's surprisingly good and amazing value.

Did not taste like a rum, more like a whisky to me. Not really a fan

Light amber in colour with the signature Appleton/Jamaican funk. It mixes great with coke or in a rum punch. My new go to mixer. $29 CAD @ LCBO.

The Pros.
Great value for the money, nothing wrong with this Rum at all.
Perfectly sweet, very smooth and with the right amount of burn.

The Cons.
No real depth of favours, and for a Jamaican Rum, hardly any Hogo "funk", but still a very pleasant taste.

Rum tylko i wyłacznie do drinków - solo niestety nie nadaje sie do komfortowego spożycia. Za to w drinku zapoznaje już ze swoim jamajskim charakterem.

Simple, but has Jamaica's funky soul. Easy on nose and pretty smooth. Wish to get it by 43°.

Score 6.5
