SOLD OUT

SAINT JAMES 12 ans 2010 Magnum Series #2

$550.00

In 1765, the first rums distilled by the “Trou Vaillant” estate were exported to North America under the name Saint-James, which Paulin Lambert decided to adopt for all his production when he purchased the estate in 1882.

In 1902, the eruption of Montagne Pelée destroyed part of the distillery, and operations did not resume until 1905.

Acquired in 1973 by the Cointreau company, it was moved from Saint-Pierre to Sainte-Marie on the east coast of Martinique in 1974.

Since July 14, 2003, it has belonged to La Martiniquaise, the leading producer and distributor of A.O.C. agricultural rum.

Claiming a freedom of tone that nothing can hinder, this version easily transcends the natural confines of its borders, to the point of evoking one of the most unique single malts from Scotland.

Description

Tasting Notes


Colour
: Orange copper.

Nose : Rich, pulpy. Initially, sugar and cane honey literally emerge from the glass. Then, it fully expresses rootier aromas (gentian), more chocolatey notes, and more leguminous scents (carrot, turnip). Overall, it possesses undeniable charm.

Palate : Delicate, creamy. Medicinal (balm), spicy (curry, turmeric), and infused (bay leaf, chervil), the flavor profile also displays originality. In some respects, it evokes the Scottish single malt Ben Nevis with much verve. Gradually, candied ginger and cocoa powder spread throughout the palate.

Finish : Long, serene. Very close to sugar cane, the tasting becomes increasingly tertiary (mushroom, roasted nuts, foam, chestnut). Milky (soy, almond), the retro-nasal olfaction is also jam-like (quince jelly, apricot), while the empty glass exhibits spicy (nutmeg) and rooty (gentian) notes.
