    How does this rum taste?

    The "Cuvée 250th Anniversary" rum from the Saint James Distillery in Martinique celebrates a rich heritage with a complex blend crafted from sugar cane juice, distilled using a column still to an ABV of 43%. Users commend its harmonious aroma featuring vanilla, woody notes, tropical, and dried fruits such as dates. On tasting, vanilla and woody flavors dominate, complemented by raisin and orange peel. While some find it a superb blend, others note a softer profile without bold character, possibly reflecting its blend of rums aged a century apart. Ideal for collectors, it is well-regarded for its balanced yet light complexity, although the value proposition may not impress all.

    One of the most successful creations in the rum world, blending rums produced over 100 years apart. Brillant

    Vanille, getrocknete Früchte und typische Agricole Noten kommen einem entgegen. Geschmacklich unglaublich rund, komplex und einfach lecker. Die genannten Noten werden ergänzt um Orangenschale, Kirsche und Rosinen. Es ist definitiv ein sehr guter Blend und eine Besonderheit. Das PLV ist natürlich miserabel.

    This is an expensive drop and the price is probably high because of the rareness of the release and what it celebrates. Overall the rum is well balanced, lightly sweet and kind of light. Fruity with spices and caramel on top. Would be a nice collectors item in my mind.

    Super nez mais bouche très en deça Malgré une certaine complexité je le trouve trop doux pas assez expressif Manque de caractère
