“Last one of my little St. James flight, I like this one the most. It is rare I find an aged Agricole still being fruity, herbal and woody. This has it all. However, it is quite intense, and most definitely needs time to appreciate - do not sip it lazily by the side.”

“Saint James en a sous le capot. À mon avis c’est que le début de la premiumisation de la marque.”
