APPLETON 20 ans 2002 HEARTS COLLECTION

Appleton Hearts Collection is the now legendary limited edition range of 100% pot still single marks selected by Luca Gargano and Joy Spence, the historic Master Blender of the Appleton Estate. It is a world first and has been the subject of a cult following among collectors around the world since 2020, the year of the first releases.
The rums that make up this exclusive series are the first 100% pot still and vintage single mark rums ever released by Appleton Estate. The 100% pot still distillation, which consists of cutting off the heads and tails, allows only the heart of the distillate to remain.
