Appleton Estates

Service Description

Joy Spence is the Master Blender at Appleton Estate. She is the first woman in the world to be awarded such a title and continues to lead Appleton Estate to win accolades around the world. The Appleton Estate offers a tour of their facility, the Joy Spence Appleton Estate Rum Experience, giving you the opportunity to see their process and taste their finely crafted line of rums. It’s a fun tour stop that mixes history, nature, and adventure in the cool hilly interior of the island. You’ll be given the chance to churn sugarcane and taste the rich molasses that produces the rum. Appleton Estate boasts rums aged in oak barrels for a minimum of four years all the way to the rare 50-year-old rum crafted to celebrate Jamaica’s 50th year of independence. You’ll be lucky to get a sip of that since only 800 bottles were introduced to the market, but the readily available 21-year-old rum is a must-have for any fine rum connoisseur. It’s a powerful yet mellow experience rich in deep vanilla, orange, and warm spicy tones.
