    Loaded with wood. Rather sweet. Then a certain bitterness. Astringent. Minty, peppery finish.

    Ce Très vieux rhum agricole Saint James 12 ans représente bien ce qu'on attend de ce genre de rhum. D'entrée de jeu, un nez vif, boisé et floral nous accueille. Ensuite jusqu'à la finale, c'est le boisé légèrement piquant qui nous accompagne.

    #5052 This rum lost my review or parts of it, luckily I have my notes 😊 Nose Light, fresh, light wood, fruits, light caramel, sugarcane, faint smoke. Palate Light, oily, lightly sweet, pineapple, light caramel, light apple, cinnamon, wood, light roasted. Finish Medium long, wood, oily, lightly sweet, light caramel, sugarcane. The empty glass had spice, light melon, cinnamon and some basil.

    The nose is thick and pungent. A bit underwhelming and not a huge amount with agricole notes and a bit of grass. The mouth is a different story, layers of complexity with cognac and brown sugar alongside some plum, spice and woody barrel. The finish is short and spicy with a bit of zing, freshness in the form of menthol type notes and just a hint of anise and astringency. It started well but I find the spicy wood and astringency a tad too much overall
