Appleton Estate 15 Year Black River Casks

Oak, vanilla, pineapple, coconut, tobacco leaves, molasses, banana, apple, honey, oranges, almond, sugar, mangos, 86 proof.

Nose is rather herbally, green, I wouldn't call it funky. Gives a much younger impression than 15 years. Taste is good, a little sweet, quite hot actually. Started with 3.75, but after a few months it became very, very good, 4.5

Smooth good Rum Personally like the 12 year better. Flavor is just a bit lacking on this one. Very smokth though

Light caramel and funk in the aroma. I get orange zest and cinnamon in the retro-hale. Flavors are more difficult to nail down, but i do find caramel is hidden in the finish. Swishing it around my mouth i get a taste similar to cinnamon flavored chewing gum. Very mild on the sweet side so a great way to introduce someone to an amazing rum who normally doesn't like sweeter spirits. Absolutely 5⭐️(five stars) when used as a mixer. A basic rum-n-coke or -- heaven forbid! -- mixed with sugar-free Pepsi is utterly fantastic. I realize this is blasphemous for some, but it's hard being a Type II diabetic. Ratings based on neat sipping.

Delicious
