My wife and I with our friends visited this place October 16, 2025. Rasia was our guide and she was a great historian and person. Super funny and knowledgeable. This was our third time in Jamaica but first time visiting Appleton. It was a great visit and worth the drive from Montego Bay. I would recommend this tour.

We came here with Inside Tours Jamaica and had an amazing time. The tour guides were informative and gave an amazing presentation regarding the history of rum production and Appleton. The tasting at the end was great and they have an awesome gift shop. If you’re in Jamaica hit this place up. Make sure to get your drink at the bar when you are waiting to start the tour it was amazing!

It was a wonderful tour full of history and rum of course. The tour cost $3,000 jmd for Jamaicans, this includes cocktails. Please bring an ID. We were hungry so we headed straight to the restaurant. Our server was Burma and she was awesome. The food was reasonably priced and it tasted good. I had the jerk pork and chicken mix ( see picture) with original daiquiri and mek mi tell yu...it did good. Great day of fun and rum. Our tour guide was Rasia and she was awesome. 😃😃😃 Go check it out and leave a top of appreciation 😉☺️

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.

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.
