Saint James Brut de colonne - Bio 2021

Agricole drinkers who want raw cane and nothing else will find their bottle here. Fresh-cut sugarcane, cut grass, olive and a squeeze of lemon zest, bone-dry and very intense — at 73.7% it lands with real heat but the alcohol reads surprisingly integrated. A few tasters note a bitter grapefruit edge on the long, herbal finish. Water helps.

8.5/10

A brut rum with an intense but delicate column. The nose is extremely floral and vegetal, with sugarcane, hay, grass and olive very much in evidence. A few fruity notes also appear briefly. By contrast, the attack on the palate is more diversified, fruitier (exotic fruit and citrus) and very fresh, with notes of eucalyptus, menthol and basil. The profile remains very fine but very intense in terms of taste, very dry but very round and with plenty of freshness. The very long finish returns to the floral, vegetal, earthy and herbaceous side, leaving a strange sensation of warmth in the throat but plenty of freshness in the mouth. A rum that's very clear-cut, but remarkably fine for its degree.

Intense. Normal étant donné le degré d'alcool. C'est finalement l'expression encore plus brute de la version réduite. Très canne, agrumes, floral. Plutôt agréable.

A slap in the face! Everything you need to compete with Genesis, and with less alcohol (but no pepper notes, it's pure vegetable cane). To sum up, my tasting notes: Nose: Herbal, Vegetal, Sugar cane, Intense, Lemon zest On the palate: Herbal, Sugarcane, Intense, Vegetal, Fresh, Balanced Finish: Warm, Herbaceous, Vegetal, Sugar cane

Hat für mich die dominanteste Süße aller bisherigen BdCs, aber auf natürliche, angenehme Art. Alkoholintegration ebenfalls gut, in Summe auf Augenhöhe mit dem Reimonenq.

Lovely rhum, learned to rub it into gums to feel the flavour. Highly recommended and one of the best examples for sugarcane flavours I know of. Great stuff!

Tres beau nez sur la canne fraîche, assez végétale, la bouche est vive mais on a un zeste de citron qui pointe son nez, pour partir sur une finale un peu plus amère, sur du pamplemousse.l, ce qui me plait moins malheureusement. Très joli dans l’ensemble tout de même!

Saint James 

Avg Rating 8.1/10 over 250 Rums

Saint-James is Martinique's biggest distillery and one of the oldest names in bottled rum, founded in 1765 and still selling a square bottle it trademarked in 1882. It holds the largest stock of aged rhum in the French Antilles, runs what may be the world's best distillation museum, and its old vintages and J. Bally bottlings are among the most loved Martinique rums on RumX.
