Each bottle of Saint James Single Barrel 1999 contains rum from a single cask.
Laurent's tasting notes
Its color is somewhere between gold and amber.
On the nose, it's primarily spices that stand out. Then come banana and almond, quickly overtaken by roasted and woody aromas. A mineral note remains in the background.
On the palate, sweet spices (above all nutmeg) lead the way, but the woodiness is also present and competes for the spotlight.
The finish is long. The finish is warm and very pleasant. The wood and sweet spices remain on the palate for some time. But this finish is not dry: it's rather greedy in a way.
