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.

8.2/10

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.

Intensive und runde Nase: alter Agricole, holzig, aber nicht unangenehm, süße, eingelegte dunkle Kirsche und reife Brombeere mit roter Traube. Dazu kommen künstliche Aromen, die etwas an Klebstoff und Politur erinnern. Erinnert mich auch an einen guten Portwein. Gaumen: trotz der nur 47% - was für Agricole ja schon mehr als üblich ist - doch ausreichend intensiv. Holzig-würzig-leicht salzig. Geschnittenes Geäst, und wieder diese künstliche Komponente, wie Politur mit etwas Metallischem. Traubig-beerig, wie kräftiger Rotwein. Im Abgang typisch grasig und Geäst mit etwas Traube. Klassisches St.J-Profil, ausreichend intensiv aber mir etwas zu schwach…

7.8/10

Tasting bei Dr. Django An der Nase erinnert mich dieser Saint James an einen Cognac. Irgendwie seifig parfümiert. Am Gaumen ist er für sein Alter noch recht präsent mit einer angenehmen Würze. Dazu ist er leicht und geschmeidig. Der Abbang ist relativ kurz
