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
- Keep in mind: A bit simple

How does Saint James VO - Rhum Vieux Agricole taste?

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.

The initial aroma is very sweet, with glue and fruit, quite pleasant. On the palate, the rum is initially less sweet, rather dry. Later, the sweetness emerges in the mouth. The finish is very mild and quite long.

This rum has a temporally neutral nose, there is almost nothing to recognize except a slight woody note. On the palate there is a certain sweetness consisting of vanilla and honey, with a slightly silky taste. But a little too sweet for me.
Review by Eric Frechin
Very basic rum, but you can't ask for miracles given the price. I think it often ends up as an old ti punch. On the whole, there's a slightly too alcoholic and peppery agricultural tendency.
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 TheJackDrop
A notch above La Mauny, it's still young and a little "too" simple to drink.
Review by Leslie Haigh
Very easy to drink I think the price point is good as well
Review by François Delmotte
A "simple" agricole rum. On the nose and palate, quite woody and caramel vanilla. The woody taste stands out mainly. Nothing exceptional but for the price, it does the "job." Finish quite average.
Review by Emilien
Je ne sais plus où je l'ai acheté mais j'ai passé de très belle soirée avec. Je recommande comme bouteille à boire + qu'à dégusté mais fait très bien le travaille (pour son prix). Rhum vieux agricole,vo de Saint James. Nez: bois , vanillé Bouche: boisé, poivré , vanillé Finale: vanillé, boisé, moyenne. Verre vide:bois,vanillé,rond Conclusion: qualité-prix très bonne(au alentour de 16-24€ euros). Très bon sipping rhum.
Review by thomas fraboulet
Boisé, vanillé, minéral. Un peu plus intense avec ses 42° comparé au HSE Ragtime ou Clement VO, on sent la canne, du boisé et de la vanille avec un peu de poivre et des fruits secs. Agréable pur, presque sucré/pâtissier, à tester en ti punch. Très content de mon achat, bouteille à 16€ en promo en grande surface
Review by Fayaman971
Un rhum qui se boit facilement mais doucement . Un bon goût de canne à sucre . Pour moi , il est pas très fruité ni trop sucré. Moi je le bois sans artifice ni glaçons . De toute façon , Saint James déçoit rarement .
Review by Krzysiek
Too peaky to me. Short and sharp taste.
Review by jazz8751
Very Woody. A bit dry. Good overall.
