Saint James Cuvée 1765

Sip it neat and you get a dry, woody agricole leaning hard on leather, tobacco and oak, with cinnamon and black pepper poking through. It reads intense for 42%. Several tasters call it round and clean but wish for more fruit — and a couple reach for it to build an old fashioned rather than sip it slow.

The community says
  • Clean and round
  • Real agricole character
  • Keep in mind: Low on fruit

Surprising for Saint James, clearly more complex. Beautiful aging.

Really disappointed. Poorly integrated alcohol. Hay and wood dominate.

Vacation Caribbean September 2026. Pub Restaurant Bodlanmè Bar Marian on Martinique. This pub is also in our hotel complex, so it has to be tested. Also a very nice Agricole. Very spicy.

I haven't had a Saint James in my glass for a while, but I didn't remember it being as extreme as this one. Quite intense despite only 42°, which is impressive, but a lot of leather, tobacco and wood. I can't do much with that.

My first agricole rum tasting. It was so different to spanish & british rums I usually taste. It is distinguishable and interesting whilst completely different . However I need to find a way how to enjoy it more :-).

Round, clean, a good Agricole that lacks only a little fruitiness for me. For a fairly young Agricole a bit too unspectacular, but still a good, rich and complex rum, if you feel a little into it.
