Most Expensive Rum Brands in the World

4. Appleton Estate

This Jamaican rum company has been around since 1749. What makes Appleton Estate one of the most expensive rum brands in the world is its 50-year-old Jamaica Independence Reserve, which costs a staggering $6,630. When Jamaica became independent from England in 1962, Appleton decided to set aside several barrels of rum and let them age; these barrels where bottled 50 years later in 2012 to celebrate the island’s independence.
