A good friend poured me some. I was a bit torn it was a little harsh to sip on but to pricey to mix. It did have a nice aroma and made a nice rum n’ coke. But for a good mixing rum there are far better and cheaper bottles out there.
Dry, smooth and tasty.
I feel a little fresh grass on palate. Long aftertaste.
Distillate is different from rum made in the Caribbean.
A bargain for the product it is.
I recommend.
Very specific taste. Too much of alcohol. Not for me.
Just added the extra point after more sips. Pretty complex, intriguing taste. It needs a bit of time to evaporate the alcohol.
Edit during coronavirus: great rum, great taste, great medicine. Plus one point! But, what the hell they increased the price by 6$
All’inizio ha un profumo forte, sembra di plastica. Lascia un buon sapore in bocca.
De los mejores rones de 12 anos, buen aroma y cuerpo, no raspa, sabor de madera y canela al final. Muy recomendable por el precio.
Jamaican rums are undoubtedly good and very well balanced. This is pure Jamaican funk. Just try it and you’ll love it!
The first randezvous was quite unpromissing. It smelled like typical rum (overripe banana). A few sips later it revealed much more coplexity, fruitiness and some strange but pleasent, hogo like flavours. Classic, elegant, balanced. Dry but not too much. Highly recommended.
Classic Appleton taste without the harsh. No sweet added like the whole Appleton collection. Some complexity. Woody and rich. One of the best bang for the buck.
Purchased for $31.99 in PA. The nose is rather mild. Upon tasting, the flavor is rather faint. Thin body and finish for an ABV of 43%. I expected more from a well known brand. UPDATE: After having this for a while, I have updated my rating from 6 to 7. It does grow on you after a while.

Now, first off I must say that I did this right. I had never tried Appleton and had gone straight to the 21-year blend for starters. Good choice because the 21-year is nothing short of amazing. But this review is about the 12-year, isn’t it? And that’s where Appleton truly excels here. The 12-year Rare Blend has much of the same identical characteristics as the 21...yet different. A little more burn, a little less underlying flavor notes. Same fruity funk that’s in the higher blends...overall a winner. Being from the South, I’ve even tried it making sweet tea, some call Planter’s Punch...or grog. It’s good. Yeah, it’s light years better than using sugar. Where others taste orange peel, I taste something like snapple, very similar to the older blends. This rum, to put it bluntly, kicks ass. Joy Spence is a champion mixer and this blend is street worthy and classy all the same. At just under $40 a bottle, you can’t beat it. Delicious.
