How does this rum taste?
Most enjoy its dry, woody, leathery profile and solid structure. Critics find the alcohol a bit rough and miss fruit or complexity. Overall seen as a good but not thrilling aged agricole.
If you like traditional, drier rums and want your first serious aged agricole, this works: more wood, leather and spice than fruit, with enough character to reward some focused tasting.
Beginners expecting soft sweetness or big fruit, and anyone very sensitive to wood, tobacco and drier profiles; also not ideal if you want maximum complexity in your agricole.

Surprising for Saint James, clearly more complex. Good ageing.
Really disappointed. Poorly integrated alcohol. Hay and wood dominate.
I haven't had a Saint James in my glass for a while, but I didn't remember it being as extreme as this one. Quite intense despite only 42°, which is impressive, but a lot of leather, tobacco and wood. I can't do much with that.
Very average. For pancakes or ti-punsch
