Appleton Estate "Joy" 25 Year Old Jamaican Rum 750ml

This long sold out 25 year old gem from Appleton is averaging $1300 on winesearcher now. Fortunately for us and our customers the distirbutor just uncovered a couple of bottles in inventory that we were able to snag at the normal price. Named in honor of Appleton's master blender Joy Spence, this remarkable limited release from the Jamaican distillery is a marriage of a 25 year old pure pot still rum with a 35 year old column still rum, a harmony that showcases Joy's talent after more than 20 years at Appleton. Dark from the long maturation and rich in flavor, the rum is perhaps the best of its kind. Unadulterated by additional sugars, the flavors are of dark chocolate and rich molasses with loads of baking spices on the finish.
