“Smooth agricole, floral, with unique, funky notes. Interesting and enjoyable.”

The "Sélection exclusive Velier" from Saint James distillery offers a unique and intricate tasting experience. This Martinique rum, aged for 11 years, intrigues with its complex nose of wood, mandarin, lemon, and hints of vanilla and caramel. On the palate, it reveals floral and grassy notes fused with a distinct woody profile, complemented by touches of citrus and subtle spice. While some find an unusual soapy hint, the overall profile remains balanced with well-integrated flavors of licorice and cardamom. It is a delightful choice for those seeking a distinctive agricole rum with an aromatic bouquet and a bold, non-traditional character. Ideal for exploring the diverse profiles of Martinique rums.

“Franconian Tasting Gang am 10.05.2024 Zuerst ein großes Dankeschön an DomM, der dieses Set zur Verfügung gestellt hat. Mich persönlich hat es nicht abgeholt das Profil. Bis auf eine Ausnahme ist mir dieser Seifengeschmack too much. Die Reste aus den Gläsern sind aber dann dank DomM und Serge in einem spontanen und überragenden Cocktail gelandet.”

“In der Nase noch halbwegs gefällig, obwohl auch hier schon Anklänge der seifigen Fehlnote erkennbar sind. Eben diese kommt am Gaumen nochmal deutlich zum Tragen, auch wenn sie nicht gänzlich überlagernd wirkt. Trotzdem bleibt festzuhalten, dass sich echter Genuss nicht einstellen will. Schade.”
