Bedford Park Saint James Single Barrel French Antilles Rum 2017

For curious explorers into agricole, this cask strength Saint James is surprisingly approachable: fresh sugarcane, vanilla, pastry sweetness and balanced wood spice. RumX members praise its value and complexity for sipping neat or lightly diluted.

8.9/10

A fantastic value for money rum - great flavours but at a fraction of the price you’d expect to see from this distillery. It’s unique given this is a bit different to your typical Agricola.

The bourbon lovers are going to want this one. Packed with flavour!!! Buying two bottles for that price.

8.8/10

This is super approachable as the bourbon cask (rumour is it’s Jack Daniels) has done fantastic work here. Very much one for, at the price, getting in front of as many people as possible, especially those new to rum. For those who want a pure agricole rum, this might not tick all the boxes given the cask forward nature but there is no denying how good this is. Considering the age and price point again, one you will want on your shelf.
