Appleton-branded liquid gold has been in constant production here since 1749. Appleton Estate sits in the Nassau Valley of Jamaica — an amazing rainforest with steeply domed hills and narrow valleys filled with some of the finest "terra rosa" soils on the planet. It’s the Napa Valley of Rum… the Champagne region of sugar cane. Appleton put this premium location to good use. They have a complete range of Rum Spirits to choose from light Rum for mixing drinks to intensely flavorful aged Spirits for sipping and savoring.
Appleton Estate 12 Year Old Rare Casks Rum is the passion project of their famed Master Distiller Joy Spence. It’s a blend of rare hand-picked pot and column still Rums that were aged for at least 12 years in the tropical climate of Jamaica – this makes the aging even more intense. The final result won Double Gold at the prestigious 2020 New York Spirits Competition. This is the type of Rum you appreciate neat or use it to elevate your cocktails.

We invented Flavor Spiral™ here at Flaviar to get all your senses involved in tasting drinks and, frankly, because we think that classic tasting notes are boring.
