That's a tough one if you're based in the UK. My two suggeestions are
1...Get in touch with Peter Martin, European Manager for J. Wray & Nephew ltd (+44 207 953 3808) and ask where they sell the limited editon bottles.
2...Ask anybody that you know that might be flying in from Jamaica. They have it on sale at both airports.

Master Blenders Legacy is available in Canada to some limited degree. I am looking forward to going to Jamaica to get some of this product soon.

Any more news on the rumors of a 30 year blend in the works?

I should have my bottle next week to try. Have a friend who has family in Jamaica so I gave her my shopping list of rum to pick up for me. Will post some notes on it when I get it Monday.

Appleton just got distribution in the US through Kobrand so I expect the Master Blender's Legacy is one of the rums which will be available though on a limited basis. There isn't a lot of this rum blended and bottled in Jamaica so if you find a bottle go for it, you might not find it again.

I'll check with the BCLDB if that might be a new addition in the future. I've tried it in Jamaica but bought a bottle of the 21 year instead.

I've been speaking to the guys at Appleton and it will be arriving very soon. The whole way that this 30 year old rum came about is funny story. Apparently it was sold to a British company which held it for a few years. They changed their minds about selling the rum, so sold it back to Appleton. Thus the rum has been aged in Jamaica, then Britain, then finally in Jamaica again.....Can't wait!!!;)
