Rhum jamaïcain sympa mais beaucoup moins que le 12 ans de chez appleton estate
Not the best by far, but value for money it's great.
Can be sipped, but easier with a mix.
Would buy again
I use a lot of Jamaican Rums in my Tiki drinks. I like the Appleton 8 when they call for aged Jamaican rum.
When it’s on sale for under $25, worth EVERY penny. Even decent sipper over ice.
There's no doubting the quality of this rum. However, I would say this blend has been designed with eye to encroach on the whiskey market. I think it's been aged in bourbon barrels and that characteristic shows in a pleasing way. I would definitely buy this again, especially as it makes a surprisingly good rum & coke, minus the lime. For sipping on a cold winter's night this is perfect but I can see why it might not fulfil everyones aged rum fantasy.
Highly recommended and the current rating (6.7) seems to reflect preference rather than quality.
This is 2nd Appleton I have tried so of course I have to compare to the rare casks 12 year that I still have left. This 8 year reserve really holds its own against the rare casks. Both have nice deep amber color. Aroma for me was identical. I find that the 12 year rare casks just has a tiny bit more character and depth than the 8 year reserve. But the 8 year was about 30% cheaper.So yeah, the 12 year rare cask is slightly better but for the price the 8 year is a great value.
Surprisingly spicy on the tongue. Strong notes of black pepper and oaked heat.
"Has a lovely smooth entry which quickly heats up. The initial notes of pineapple and dark almost to ripe banana give way to spicy heat. The flavours linger and coat the taste buds with hot spice."

This rum has a slight burn in the finish. Not recommended.
