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.

Tasting bei Dr. Django An der Nase erinnert mich dieser Saint James an einen Cognac. Irgendwie seifig parfĂŒmiert. Am Gaumen ist er fĂŒr sein Alter noch recht prĂ€sent mit einer angenehmen WĂŒrze. Dazu ist er leicht und geschmeidig. Der Abbang ist relativ kurz
Beeindruckender St James. Alles sehr typisch. DĂŒnne Nase, die nicht viel verrĂ€t. Am Gaumen dann aber die voll Bandbreite. Das diese alte AbfĂŒllung 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, auĂerdem richt er wĂŒrzig und nach Trauben. Am Gaumen dann ebenfalls röstig, auĂerdem starker KrĂ€utergeschmack 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.
