Appleton 35 years old - Ruby Joy Spence Anniversary Edition - 750ml

Appleton Estate Ruby Anniversary Edition is a monumental Jamaican rum, released in only 500 bottles worldwide to celebrate the 40-year career of legendary Master Blender Joy Spence. A blend of 5 rare rums (from Pot Still and column still). Aged for a minimum of 35 years in tropical climate, with components up to 45 years old. ABV: 45%. Dark mahogany color, dense, with deep copper and ruby reflections. The nose is highly complex, dominated by citrus and spicy notes. Hints of bitter orange peel, black pepper, vanilla and a touch of briny sea air emerge. The classic Jamaican “funk” is present but elegantly tamed. The taste is extremely dry and austere, almost devoid of sugary sweetness. The ultra-30-year aging shows with a strong presence of wood and tannins. You can detect notes of burnt mandarin zest, bitter cocoa and coffee. The finish is clean, dry and moderately long, with a return of woody spices and a slight bitter note.
For important collections or expert connoisseurs only. Bottle and packaging in perfect condition.
