## Description

Product Description For over 265 years, Appleton Estate has been crafting premium, aged rums in the heart of Jamaica. Appleton Estate 8 Year Old Reserve is a single estate aged Jamaica rum, taking inspiration from the vibrancy of Jamaica, its land and the joyful nature of its people. Crafted by Master Blender Joy Spence to commemorate Appleton Estate's 250th anniversary. The 8 Year Old Reserve reveals aromas of spicy fruit and oak, followed by hints of honey, vanilla and Appleton Estate's signature orange peel note. A brilliant honeyed bronze in colour, with a finish exceptionally smooth. Made in the Nassau Valley, a lush and fertile terrain in the heart of Jamaica - here, is where every drop of the select reserve pot-still rum used in the Appleton Estate 8 Year Old Reserve is aged, for a minimum of 8 years in the tropical climate of Jamaica, giving it a smoother, fuller flavour. Ideal for sipping neat or in a cocktail - the balanced and versatile profile of the 8 Year Old Reserve offers the perfect foundations for any classic, mixing particularly well with the refreshing citrus of a Mai Tai. Like all of our Appleton Estate rums, the 8 Year Old Reserve adheres to the highest standard of rum production. Using non-GMO molasses and yeast, distillation using only Jamaican limestone-filtered water, no artificial colours, sweeteners or additives to influence the taste and aroma and reflects our commitment to both tropical and minimum ageing.

Review: Appleton Estate 8: The Rum That Thinks It’s Better Than You (And Is) - Overall impression A rich, well-structured Jamaican rum, it balances tropical fruit, oak, and baking spice with enough character to sip neat but enough backbone to transform a cocktail. Expect warmth, not harshness, and genuine depth rather than just sugar. Aroma Noticeable notes of orange peel, dried apricot, and a bit of banana, wrapped in vanilla and light oak. There is a subtle molasses and toffee sweetness, with a hint of baking spice that feels more elegant than aggressive. Taste Medium-bodied with flavours of caramel, vanilla, and citrus, backed by a touch of toasted oak and nutmeg. The sweetness is controlled rather than syrupy, so it feels like a proper sipping rum rather than a dessert in a glass. Finish Warm, slightly spicy finish with lingering notes of orange zest, vanilla, and light wood.Smooth enough for sipping, but with enough edge that it still feels like a characterful Jamaican rum, not a bland crowd-pleaser. Best ways to drink Neat or with a single ice cube to open up the citrus and spice. Excellent in an Old Fashioned-style rum cocktail or a more serious Daiquiri where you actually want to taste the rum, not just lime and sugar.
Review: Drinkability - So much better than Appleton Signature. It is so smooth and the price is just right. A decent rum for rum lovers.
