“Un agricole vraiment excellent ! Avec un fruité bien présent et un boisé assez discret pour un 20 ans . Une belle réussite”

“Kakao trifft auf verbranntes Fass und dunkle Früchte - leider bleibt die Alkoholstärke hier ein recht präsenter Begleiter. Insgesamt eine durchaus abwechslungsreiche Balance aus herben, frischen und süssen Noten. In der aufgerufenen Preisklasse eine empfehlenswerte Abfüllung - insgesamt gibt es aber zweifelsohne bessere Rums von St. James.”

“Sehr schöner runder Saint James, schöne Fruchtigkeit, nicht zu holzig, leicht floral und salzig würzig, sowie leicht süßlich. Gefällt mir deutlich besser wie der 2003 Brut de fut!”
