Richtig stark. Bisher der beste Agricole den ich probieren durfte. Vielleicht würden ihn ein paar Prozent mehr noch gut tun, aber so ist er unglaublich weich und trotzdem komplex. Tolle Mischung aus Frucht und würzigen Noten, klasse!
Beeindruckender St James. Alles sehr typisch. Dünne Nase, die nicht viel verrät. Am Gaumen dann aber die voll Bandbreite. Das diese alte Abfüllung mit so wenigen % so viel Geschmack hat ist wirklich faszinierend.
Ein schöner Saint James hier. In der Nase kommt er sehr röstig daher. Holz ist hier ziemlich erkennen, außerdem richt er würzig und nach Trauben. Am Gaumen dann ebenfalls röstig, außerdem starker Kräutergeschmack und Holz. Lecker.
Undoubtedly a very good rum. Concentrated and multi-layered Agricole. Notes of red wine or port, light bitter notes of zest, perfumed tobacco. Overall, however, the wood is too present and engaging in the mouth. The finish is tasty and long.
