The Hearts Collection is the exceedingly exciting collaboration between Appleton Estate’s Master Blender, Joy Spence, and Luca Gargano of the Genoa-based spirit specialist, Velier. Together, they select exceptionally rare pot-still rums and only the optimum ones make the cut. What better way of celebrating this rare rum than a whole host of goodies to go alongside it, including glassware and 20cl bottles of the Appleton Signature, 8 year reserve and 12 year rare cask rum.
What makes the Hearts Collection just so thrilling is that these are the first single-marque pot-still rums that the Jamaican Distillery has ever released. Each Jamaican distillery classifies its rum production based on their specific marques (or marks), which correspond to the content of esters after distillation. Esters are aromatic chemical compounds created during fermentation, and these determine how heavy and how funky the final rum is. Normally rums of different marques are blended together. So, nobody ever really gets the opportunity to taste them in their unadulterated form like this.
Distilled in 2002 at a specific marque especially chosen by Master Blender Joy Spence, this rare edition embodies the excellence of the celebrated estate. This 20-year-old rum throbs with orange blossom wrapped in warm vanilla pudding, freshly roasted coffee and syrupy caramel. It was distilled in a Forsyth Pot Still and twenty casks of each marque were blended to create this unique single-mark limited collection. So, don’t delay if you want to take up this intriguing opportunity.
Renowned around the world for producing wonderfully rich, aromatic and flavourful rums, Appleton Estate also has the distinct honour of being Jamaica’s oldest sugar estate and distillery in continuous production.
