Nestling in the sugar cane fields of St Elizabeth parish, the Appleton Rum Estate near the village of Maggoty offers the chance to find out all there is to know about the production of rum. There is a small museum with equipment and artifacts from the days gone by, and a resident donkey to demonstrate how sugar cane used to be crushed by turning the teeth of a mill. The estate’s vast acreage is still planted with sugar cane, and visitors are shown how it is harvested, crushed, fermented, distilled and aged in handmade oak barrels. Then blending is explained, before the bottling is demonstrated and thirsty tourists can end off their visit at the tavern to sample the estate’s rums and liqueurs. Mon - Sat   9am - 3.30pm
