{"title":"Appleton Estate Rum","description":"\u003cp\u003eAppleton Estate is Jamaican rum royalty — and one of the most historically significant distilleries in the entire spirits world. With the first documented distilling taking place in 1749, Appleton Estate is the oldest continuously operating rum distillery in Jamaica, producing exceptional rum from a single estate in the heart of the Nassau Valley for over 275 years. The Nassau Valley's ancient limestone karsts naturally filter rainwater into crystal clear streams that contribute directly to the flavor of every expression, making Appleton one of the few rums in the world with a genuine, definable terroir. In 1997 Appleton hired Joy Spence as master blender — the first woman ever to hold that title in the spirits industry — and under her direction the range has grown from everyday crowd-pleasers to some of the most coveted aged expressions in rum. From the approachable Signature Blend to the complex 12, 15, and 21 Year Old expressions, every Appleton bottle is a lesson in Jamaican rum tradition done right.
