    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members rave about the nose: woody, cocoa and vanilla with spice. On the palate, an elegant agricole profile brings sugarcane, nutmeg and roasted notes, with alcohol beautifully integrated at 52.4%. The finish is long and warm; give it time to open. Selected by Corman Collins from the 2002 vintage and aged almost 18 years, this limited 450-bottle release is a highly rated Saint James, backed by 78 community reviews.

    Un agricole digne de ce nom. Une vraie réussite. Profil beaucoup plus gourmand que la plupart des autres vieux St-James.

    On the nose roasted hazelnuts, chocolate, burnt sugar, spices, red fruits and some flowers.On the palate again roasted hazelnuts, wood, spices, red fruits and a touch of full-bodied vanilla and nougat sweetness to tie it all together, slightly peppery finish and in the aftertaste a grandiose hint of root/mold/earthy. Magical!In the empty glass roasted, earthy and woody. Thanks to Johannes for the opportunity!

    Sensationell guter Agricole!

    Un superbe Saint James embouteillé par Corman Collins, qui a réalisé une très belle sélection. Le nez se veut très gourmand, tourné par de belles notes boisées, des arômes sombres typiques de la distillerie (cuir, épices, cappuccino, cacao, noisettes et tabac), du toffee, du caramel et quelques effluves fruitées tournées vers les fruits tropicaux, les fruits secs et la banane. L’attaque en bouche est expressive mais maîtrisée. On ressent les notes de thé, les quelques notes terreuses de tabac, qui se mêlent bien aux notes sombres et épicées. Les fruits secs et la banane se font plus discrets, mais l’ensemble est très rond, complet et élégant. La finale est longue sur quelques notes de groseilles, des épices et des notes torréfiées. Un rhum qui représente Saint James à merveille.
