The rums that make Appleton Estate 50 Year Old Jamaica Rum were specially set down over 50 years ago and very carefully managed over time to create this minimum aged 50 Year Old Rum to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Jamaica's Independence. This very rare, Limited Edition rum was launched on June 7, 2012 at Jamaica House in Kingston, Jamaica and was attended by a number of dignitaries including the Prime Minister of Jamaica, the Most Honourable Portia Simpson-Miller.
The Appleton Estate 50 Year Old Jamaica Rum - Jamaica Independence Reserve is packaged in a bespoke hand crafted, crystal decanter whose design and shape was inspired by Appleton Estate Jamaica Rum's iconic bottle. The etchings and gold screen printing on the bottle take their cue from Jamaica's National Symbols and it is finished with a gold finished brass and cork stopper.
Dark mahogany in color with rich coppery reflections and a very pronounced green ring of ageing, the 50 Year boasts a bouquet of powerful oak infused with rich vanilla, and is layered with cinnamon, maple and orange peel. Finishes exceptionally smooth with honeyed oak.
