Saint James 9 Ans (Très Vieux Rhum Agricole) 9yr 43%
The Saint James 9 Ans (Très Vieux Rhum Agricole) from Martinique is celebrated for its rich character derived from sugar cane juice and 9 years of aging. This rum greets you with inviting aromas of vanilla, fruity notes, and aromatic spices such as nutmeg. On the palate, it reveals complex flavors of oak, raisin, tobacco, and dried fruits, underpinned by a robust woody essence. Users appreciate its elegant profile, gentle spiciness, and smooth drinkability, although some note a lack of lasting finish. Ideal for those who enjoy a balance of earthy, herbal, and dried fruit notes, it bridges the gap between the 7 and 12-year offerings of Saint James, making it a versatile addition to any rum collection.

“Tasted quickly on the Rhumfest. To try again but not conquered. The 7 years old remains for me the most balanced of the range. We would have to compare them at the same time to get a better idea.”

“Rhum intermédiaire de la gamme permanente, ce Saint James de 9 ans d’âge se distingue par un nez d’une grande douceur, porté les épices douces, le boisé élégant, les fruits secs et la canne à sucre. Des noix et des notes toastées font leur entrée par la suite, dans la lignée de la distillerie. L’attaque en bouche se démarque par son côté terreux et herbacé, les notes de tabac, une certaine amertume et l’influence du chêne issu des fûts de cognac. Le côté boisé et épicé est également très prononcé. Le profil est sec, facile d’accès, mais pas révolutionnaire. La finale, un peu courte pour le profil, laisse virevolter les saveurs empyreumatiques et végétales, ces dernières prenant peu à peu l’ascendant durant la dégustation. Bien que cela soit un rhum tout à fait correct, il n’apporte pas grand chose entre les cuvées de 7 et 12 ans qui marquent un véritable palier dans la gamme de la distillerie.”
