Saint James VO - Rhum Vieux Agricole
Sips easily enough neat, but most members reach for it in a ti punch. Expect fresh sugar cane, oak and vanilla, a little pepper and dried fruit at 42%. The nose runs sweet with a touch of glue; the palate turns drier before some honeyed sweetness returns. Young, straightforward Martinique agricole that does the job without pretending to be more.
The community says- Fresh cane sugar
- Easy to drink
- But: A bit simple

Young, woody agricole for ti punch Most find it an easy, woody everyday agricole with cane and vanilla. Praised for value; the common gripe is it's a bit simple and can read slightly hot and peppery.

Review by Timo Groeger
Zeitlich neutrale Nase hat dieser Rum, ist fast gar nichts zu erkennen außer eine leichte Holznote. Am Gaumen kommt dann eine gewisse Süsse bestehend aus Vanille und Honig dazu, hat einen leicht seidigen Geschmack. Mir aber doch etwas zu süss.
Review by François Delmotte
Un "simple" Rhum agricole. Au nez comme en bouche, assez boisé et caramel vanille. Le goût boisé ressort principalement. Rien d'exceptionnel mais pour le prix, cela fait le "boulot". Finale assez moyenne.
Review by Cédric Meyers
Very pleasant on the nose, but a little less so on the palate, as you can't find what it smells like.
Review by Montana
Der erste Geruch ist sehr süß, Klebstoff und Frucht, ganz angenehm. Geschmacklich ist der Rhum zuerst eher weniger süß, dafür trocken. Später kommt im Mund dann die Süße zum Vorschein. Der Abgang ist sehr mild und recht lange.
Review by TheJackDrop
Un cran au dessus du La Mauny, ca reste jeune et un peu "trop" simple à boire.
Review by Leslie Haigh
Very easy to drink I think the price point is good as well
Review by Krzysiek
Too peaky to me. Short and sharp taste.
