Rum Shark Appleton Jamaica (Single Cask Selection) 2010
Best sipped neat with a little air in the glass. This 13-year Appleton from Rum Shark leans spice-forward on the nose, with tropical fruit and a touch of oak coming through on the palate. One taster called it "semi mild" but found the technical side a lot; another liked the "typical Appleton background." Not especially complex, and the 58.4% can read hot.
The community says- Typical Appleton character
- Tropical fruit palate
