A good VSOP, a rough smoky rum with smooth agricole notes. Again, similar to Guyana rum. In the mouth violently dry, woody, spicy and bitter. Round is different! In the finish mainly bitter chocolate with caramel. If you like young Agricoles, you get a lot for the price.

In der Nase noch schöne Limette und frisches Zuckerrohr, Geschmack dann mehr holzig und würzig und deutliche Cognac Assoziation. Finish dann ähnlich, etwas rau und ein wenig bitter. Da hab ich an den Depaz VSOP im Vergleich bessere Erinnerungen. Könnte fruchtiger sein.

Smoky dark chocolate on the nose and a strong taste of cognac mixed with cocoa on the palate. The finish maintains the dark chocolate notes but adds tobacco and a little pineapple at the very end. A decent sipping rum.

Ce Saint James VSOP est ce qu'on peut trouver de mieux pour débuter ou comme premier agricole AOC. Il est boisé, épicé et frais. Et pour 30€, il a un rapport qualité/prix imbattable ou comment faire goûter à vos amis/famille un rhum agricole AOC de très bonne qualité sans se ruiner.
