APPLETON 30 YEAR OLD

This limited edition 30 year old rum from the world famous Appleton Estate in Jamaica, is a very rare blend made up of several marks of rum that were hand selected by our Master Blender more than 30 years ago. These marks were individually aged 8 years then blended together and placed again inAPPLE oak barrels where they rested for a further 22 years. The result of this unique dual ageing process is a rum that is unmatched in taste, character and smoothness. It is the ultimate journey of discovery of the finest rum in the world.

Only 1,440 bottles of this very rare 30 Year Old Rum was handcrafted by the Master Blender of the Appleton Estate and released in 2008.

“We would expect Appleton Estate 30 Year Old Jamaica Rum to auction for between $500 and $1,000 a bottle. I would say whoever gets their hands on one has impeccable taste and lots of friends.”
~Allen McCormick, Distilled Spirits Association,
