The nose overrules
the chemistry.
— Joy Spence, Master Blender
A celebration of the Nassau Valley, with its pristine limestone-filtered water, this 21 Year Old pays homage to all that is Appleton Estate, guardian to the world’s greatest collection of aged rum.
‘Tropical ageing’ in the heat of the Valley means that a barrel that normally contains 500 bottles, would only leave behind 70 bottles of precious rum after ageing for 21 years. The angels in Jamaica enjoy 83% of our nectar over 21 years.
Ideally enjoyed in a snifter, displaying the green ring of ageing. Add a drop of water to uncover the layers of complexity which come with 21 years of tropical ageing. Starting with a floral scent that develops into a unique, mature nutty bouquet.
The nose reveals floral and mature, nutty elements. Notes of deep vanilla and orange peel lead to a deep, rich finish.
