Appleton Estate Rum Tour

This was such a unique, fun experience. First of all, the property itself is beautiful! So luscious and green. The tour and tasting are very well thought out and organized. There’s a buffet so we got some food to eat, which was included in our entry fee. Very delicious and leaned more home cooked. I really enjoyed the tour, they gave us a behind the scenes tour of the rum making process, and had us try the products every step of the way and ended with actual tasting of different flavors. It was great and I’d highly recommend it.

The Appleton Estate tour was a really good experience. It was interesting to see the process behind the rum-making and you could tell a lot of care goes into every step. The staff were warm, welcoming, and very knowledgeable which made the tour even more enjoyable. One suggestion for the future would be to offer a souvenir option, maybe a small flask of Appleton rum at a discounted price or a package that includes it. It would be a nice touch for visitors to take a little piece of the experience home. Still, even without that, the tour was well worth it and I’d definitely recommend it.

Thank you for an incredible experience at Appleton Estate! Our guide, Danielle, was warm, friendly and so knowledgeable! And the food in the restaurant was excellent! The rum tasting was also a fantastic experience and tasting the different varieties was definitely a learning experience. I had no idea that the tastes could be so different and Danielle did a great job explaining the flavor profiles. We also decided to taste the 15 and 21 year aged rums and fell in love with both of them! We purchased the 21 year old rum and look forward to savoring it in the future!! Anyone visiting Jamaica should make it a priority to visit Appleton Estate!! :-)

The Appleton Estate Rum Tour was excellent! The welcome drink was a pleasure and the feel of the welcome center was luxe with comfy seating. Once our tour began we watched a brief film about the estate after which we walked out onto the grounds. The history and breakdown of how rum was made was insightful and eye opening. My favorite part of the tour was the tasting session where we were able to identify the different notes in different versions of Appleton rum. The well stocked gift shop was also a good shopportunity. My only slight issue during my visit was the food. The grilled chicken was adequate but was most definitely not jerk, as described. Overall a good experience. Will recommend and revisit again soon.

Awesome tour. Our tour guide, Peter, was amazing. If you're a rum lover, especially Appleton, you need to visit. I learned so much. Didn't know that slaves were the first to distill rum. A monument with their names is erected on the property. The master distiller is female. The only one in the world. I could go on and on, but you should go visit. You won't regret it. I will be going back again, for sure.

Compact informative and neat like the rum samples. We had a great time here very professional and knowledgeable guide the grounds are well kept enabling many great photo opportunities. Well off the beaten path but we'll worth the time and money.

Would definitely recommend this tour it was a 10/10 expérience. The bartender was very polite and friendly. All the staff were great, but our tour guide Raisa was AWESOME. She made us laugh and we made her laugh. Paz the donkey is very hardworking. The whole estate was clean and well kept. This was definitely a great experience.

My trip was 1.5 years ago. I just came across these photos of my daughter and I. She worked with Chukka and treated me with the experience. We went together. We had soooooo much fun. Little did I know she would leave me too soon. These are some of the highlights from our trip. Thanks for the memories Appleton Estate.
