Rum Agricole · 60%

Saint James Cœur de chauffe

Fresh-cut grass, sugarcane and a hit of black pepper straight off the still — this is unaged Martinique agricole at full 60% throttle. A few tasters catch light citrus, yellow fruit and even a faint solvent edge. Neat it's hot and green; most members reach for it in a Ti Punch, where it shows a deep red-berry side with just a little lime.

The community says
  • Fresh grassy cane
  • Great in Ti Punch
  • Keep in mind: Hot neat

This Saint James at ABV 60% made from cane juice is not distilled in an column still as most of their produced rum, instead it’s double distilled in copper pot stills. So because of that it’s an Agricole without being an AOC rum. It makes a good Ti Punch.

Unaged Agricole, the second one. Again, a lot of cane, otherwise, of course, very vegetal, very floral, fresh, grassy and earthy. You really can't go wrong with this nice Agricole.

Unaged agricole that comes broad-shouldered with 60% into the glass. It draws light, oily streaks on the inside of the glass, smells nicely of fresh grass and light citrus notes and yellow fruits, plus slightly chemical notes like solvents or lacquer. On the palate, nice sugarcane aroma, at the back of the palate brine and hints of green olives. I have to try it in Ti'Punch, could work well.

After a rousing review by thelonecaner bought this pot still agricole. Was initially too violent for me, esp. the earthy aromas that made me think the sugar cane roots to chew - an impression that has become much weaker over three quarters of a year. Alcohol is well integrated, but 60% brings a certain sharpness. In the meantime I appreciate it, especially in Ti Punch with only a little lime it develops a deep red berryiness. The is also my secret ingredient in the Mai Tai.

Pure for me no pleasure, but brilliant in Ti'Punch. There I like it even better than the HSE 55, which was otherwise my "standard" in terms of unripe Agricoles.

One of my favorite whites. The sugarcane flavor is obviously dominant. In value for money it is definitely one of the best white rums!

Agricole in full glory. Smell of grass, flowers, meadow candles with hints of moonshine. Dry, rich taste with distinct notes of grass but also alembic. Warming. Sweetish, alcoholic moonshine finish. Excellent for drinks.
