Alas the Master Blenders Legacy, while a fine rum isn't anything like the JW&N 17 year old. It's a lovely blend though and sits beautifully between the Extra and the 21.....I may have to go get myself some to ease this miserable January......

The 17 year we have was actually bottled in the 40's and lost in JW&N private stores til a few years ago when the 6 were found. The reason they don't make it now is the Appleton production facility has modernised to the extent it can't be reproduced. Wish we'd kept it rather than kept tucking into it.....we've got less than a quarter bottle left of the 2 we were given :(

Best Mai Tai's we'll ever have have been drunk from it - Mai Tai Roa Ae!
