Me and my friends have been searching everywhere for a decently priced bottle of rum to no avail. My favourite is Appletons which I believe is Kingston something now. We may have to break down and spend some cash but anyone got any ideas?

Kingston 62 is Appleton Estates flagship rum. It's available in Negril just about every where like the new HiLo. Appleton Signature, Appleton Reserve, and Appleton 12 are next in line depending on age and have not been seen for a while on the shelves. Appleton is now owned by an Italian company called Campari and as I understand it, the European market has discovered the taste of Appleton and love it, so most of the product is sent overseas.Quote:

Kingston 62 is the new name for Appleton Special. Good for mixing. Not so much for sipping.
Ok thanks guys. I will continue my quest.Quote:

How's the supply of chocolate rum cream?
One Mile (near Drifters) has 62 on the shelf. I think it was $30 US. HiLo and Value Master have White only.
Excellent!Quote:

HiLo at Boardwalk has K 62 Gold, ask at the service desk $25 ltr.
Left last Saturday, my quest was Appleton 12 year old , Hilo had 15 year old searched high and low and it was under my nose the whole time, the cigar shop across from country in the Hilo shopping mall had a liter bottle little over priced at us 65 but it’s vacation mon!
So is there no Signature availability in Negril these days? Has it not improved any since last summer????
Yes, it's available. In the picture I posted in this thread you can see it.Quote:
