    How does this rum taste?

    • Intense sugarcane aroma
    • Bold floral notes
    • Warm spicy finish

    The "Cœur de chauffe," a potent 60% ABV rum from Martinique's Saint James distillery, captivates connoisseurs with its intense sugarcane aroma and vibrant floral notes. Distilled from sugarcane juice using traditional pot stills, it boasts a complex profile. While not certified AOC, this agricole rum delights in Ti Punch cocktails, where its earthy tones and berry nuances shine. Users appreciate its robust character when sipped neat, finding a harmonious blend of citrus and peppery flavors balanced by its naturally sweet sugarcane essence. While its high alcohol content may present an initial sharpness, allowing the rum to rest releases its full bouquet, achieving a warm, spicy finish.

    "This Saint James at ABV 60% made from cane juice is not distilled in an column still as most of their produced rum, instead it’s double distilled in copper pot stills. So because of that it’s an Agricole without being an AOC rum. It makes a good Ti Punch."
