Overview
Appleton Estate 15 Year Black River Casks Rum
Jamaican Rum | 86 Proof (43% ABV) | 750mL
Process & Profile
Appleton Estate 15 Year Black River Casks Rum is a premium expression crafted in the heart of Jamaica’s Nassau Valley. Made from carefully selected sugarcane molasses and fermented with native yeasts, this rum is distilled using traditional copper pot stills. Aged a full 15 years in American oak barrels in the tropical Jamaican climate, the rum matures rapidly, developing a deep and complex profile that speaks to its long journey from field to cask to bottle.
Master Blender Joy Spence ensures each barrel used in this blend meets rigorous standards, and the “Black River” name pays tribute to the source of the limestone-filtered water used in distillation—a key element in its refined structure.
