appleton estate jamaica rum <br> crafted with joy workshops

Crafted with Joy, Appleton Estate’s workshop series, is back for another round this autumn with three new sessions featuring some of the most passionate artisans in London; Blenheim Forge, Earl of East London and Grain & Knot. Just like the care and attention that go into the rum-making at Appleton Estate, from the distillation to the ageing to the blending, these workshops will showcase the same energy and enjoyment from the makers. Not only will you get to meet the artisans and learn a new skill, you’ll be able to experience what Appleton Estate Rum is all about.

All of the sessions will be hosted by Joe St Clair Ford and Lawrence Gregory, and include a welcome cocktail, the craft workshop, a brief intro to Jamaican rum, a rum cocktail masterclass, and a Crafted with Joy take-home tasting kit.
