"This rum is a real juice straight out of the cane which the sugar of it would have candied. Very vegetable notes (Green / Hay / Earthy / Sap / Olive / Grass), of citrus fruits (Lemon / Lime) which brings a beautiful freshness (Smooth), it is mineral, slightly spicy (Pepper / Cinnamon / Vanilla (at the end of mouth)), we also find a beautiful sweetness (Honey / Cooked sugar) In short we just have the impression to crunch in a cane gorged of sugar and sun it is very good and pleasant to drink!"

"This Saint James Brut de Colonne BIO is an important part in the distillery’s way of talking a bigger environmental responsibility. It’s distilled during one day 2020 in their Creole column and bottled Brut de Colonne without any alcohol reduction. Overall a great AOC Blanc which is extremely tasty if you let it rest a while in your mouth before you swallow it."

"Second tasting: Very good white rum only slightly behind my reference Neisson L'Esprit RX1058. Tasted at the 12th GRF Very good Agricole! Experiment: put a piece of lime zest in the glass and wait 1 min... This rum has the necessary power for this experiment - as I learned in the Velier Tasting at the 12th GRF."
