How does this rum taste?
Rhum Saint James from Martinique offers a distinctive experience, distilled from sugar cane juice using a column still at 47% ABV. Users often note its potent roasted and woody aroma combined with hints of grapes and cherries, reminiscent of a cognac. The flavor profile mixes herbal, sugarcane, and young wood elements with woody and cherry undertones, creating a vibrant, complex tasting journey. Though its complexity is praised, some find the wood notes overpowering, and there's occasional mention of a soapy perfume. Nonetheless, it stands out as a quality Agricole with a rich, balanced mix of fruit and spice, leaving a lasting impression with a short, but flavorful finish.

Richtig stark. Bisher der beste Agricole den ich probieren durfte. Vielleicht würden ihn ein paar Prozent mehr noch gut tun, aber so ist er unglaublich weich und trotzdem komplex. Tolle Mischung aus Frucht und würzigen Noten, klasse!
Beeindruckender St James. Alles sehr typisch. Dünne Nase, die nicht viel verrät. Am Gaumen dann aber die voll Bandbreite. Das diese alte Abfüllung mit so wenigen % so viel Geschmack hat ist wirklich faszinierend.
Ein schöner Saint James hier. In der Nase kommt er sehr röstig daher. Holz ist hier ziemlich erkennen, außerdem richt er würzig und nach Trauben. Am Gaumen dann ebenfalls röstig, außerdem starker Kräutergeschmack und Holz. Lecker.
Undoubtedly a very good rum. Concentrated and multi-layered Agricole. Notes of red wine or port, light bitter notes of zest, perfumed tobacco. Overall, however, the wood is too present and engaging in the mouth. The finish is tasty and long.
