90s Jamaican Rum Collections

Appleton Estate Unveils its Hearts Collection 1998

— July 19, 2024 — Lifestyle
Appleton Estate has unveiled its 'Hearts Collection 1998,' a new vintage rum aged for 25 years in the tropical climate of the Appleton Estate.

This release marks a significant milestone as the eighth edition in the highly regarded series known for its exceptionally rare 100% pot still Jamaican rums.

Hearts Collection 1998 is distinguished by its "complex and refined profile, characterized by prominent notes of warm vanilla intertwined with subtle nuances of herbs, tropical fruit, delicate molasses, ginger spice, smoked coffee, rich butterscotch, and a hint of oak."

This expression is the result of "careful selection from just 19 barrels, all distilled in a singular proprietary marque using traditional copper pot stills" and highlights the pinnacle of Appleton Estate's craftsmanship and dedication to quality.

Enthusiasts and collectors alike can anticipate the arrival of Appleton Estate Hearts Collection 1998 in select premium spirits retail outlets across the United States starting at the end of August.
