LUX November 2017

http://lux.acquisition-intl.com/ 24 LUX - November 2017 The Appleton Estate Rare Blend 12-Year-Old has joined the existing range of award-winning premium aged rums, all of which are produced from ‘cane to cocktail’ on the Appleton Estate in the lush Nassau Valley in Jamaica. Appleton Estate is Jamaica’s oldest distillery and has been crafting rum for over 265 years. This special rum is a true expression of the Master Blender’s craft and passion. The rare, golden rums that make up Rare Blend are hand-selected, and have all been aged for a minimum of 12 years. The long years of tropical ageing give it its rich mahogany hue, confident woody character, and smooth robust taste – all of which make a bold statement of extraordinary quality. This is easy to tell from the very first sip- a bold and confident drink, this rum is made to be savoured alone, but it also makes for an exceptional ingredient in a truly decedent cocktail. Appleton Estate Rare Blend 12 Year Old is available from selected specialist retailers, and makes for the ideal tipple for a very Merry Christmas. Distilled in traditional copper pot stills, Rare Blend is a superb blend of rums, many of which have been aged for at least 12 years, making for a deliciously smooth and rich drinking experience.
