Saint James Blanc Bio 56,5°: Description and customer reviews

Saint James Blanc Bio is an AOC Martinique agricultural rum produced exclusively from a plot selection of organic sugar cane.

Harvested at full maturity during the very dry season, the canes come from the "Piquets à boeufs" and "Palmiste" plots located near the Sainte-Marie distillery. This rum is distilled in a traditional Creole column, reduced to 56.5° and then bottled.

To further their environmental approach, the brand's bottles are made from 30% to 50% recycled glass, and the label papers carry the FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) label. This certifies that forestry operations are ecologically appropriate, socially beneficial and economically viable.

Nico's tasting notes

The nose is very green, full of chlorophyll and peppermint, with great energy and a luminous profile. The cane is nevertheless very greedy and fleshy, and offers us a whole range of sweet spices.

Aeration brings out citrus notes that are acidic, bitter and fresh, as well as a few touches of fine pepper. A floral side also opens up, with geranium and rose.

The palate is sticky and concentrated, with a vegetal, peppery cane juice, much less green than on the nose but no less savory. Spice and bagasse rub the palate mid-palate, then fade into salty plums, black cherries and olive tapenade.

The finish continues like this, on fermentation, with green and black olives and always a salty character that almost takes us towards anchovy.

"A superb nose and an almost salty mouth, ready to welcome a little lemon and sugar for ti'punch..."

    I misjudged this rum at the first tasting and the second allowed me to re-evaluate its true level. The nose is superb, very fresh, minty and almost sweet. The first time I tasted it, I thought the palate lacked aromatic intensity. But no, in fact. It doesn't have great amplitude or a very long finish, but it does have the right intensity and balance, with a sweetness in the middle and a salty finish. A rum adjusted to the perfect degree of 56.5% to be consumed very regularly, in all simplicity because it ticks so many boxes. Organic and very good value for money......
