Saint James Reserve Privee 12-Year

So good I had 2 glasses at the bar. The color is very nice. Really good after a sharp one.

This is what I intend for a Rum.
From the aroma to the finish, from the color to the burn. I'm in love with agricoles and this is a must.

Start sweet with a bit of salty liquorice ends short with a kind of earthly aftertaste. Very smooth no burn at all. This is my first bottle
and taste of rhum agricole.

My very first agricole from Martinique and I quite enjoyed it. Very dry and grassy but easy drinking.

Light Amber color. It runs slowly down the glass. It is fruity with a hint of chocolate. It has a fresh juicy taste and dry on the finish.

Great nose, sourness that develops into tropical fruit. A bit dry.

One of my first Agricole rums, good nose, body and long aftertaste

Pleasant nose, but too much of an oak taste for me - almost bitter - and the alcohol is very present.

Ce rhum medaille est a la hauteur de mes esperances sur des notes boisees fumees moins puissant que le 15 ans et un peu plus doux.certains prefereront celui ci.bien fait ce rhum a 30e a la rhumerie vaut le coup.mais moi je suis pas fan du gout global de la distillerie....

Design : on retrouve la bouteille carrée signature de la marque St James, le rhum a une belle robe acajou.
Nez : riche, épicé boisé.
Goût : assez particulier en attaque, avec un goût prononcé de boisé et de fruits (pruneau), ensuite viennent des arômes plus subtils, cacao, café notamment.
Finale : longue, goût de canne.
Un des rhums haut de gamme de St James, cette bouteille vaut le détour et justifie l'investissement par rapport au rhum vieux.
