  Saint James XO Rhum Agricole Martinique Rum 43%

  Item no.: 22227865379-18820

  Green, grassy notes meet Cognac-like finesse in a blend that shows just how versatile a rhum agricole can be.

  Expert description

  Saint James XO Rhum Agricole is an AOC Martinique Rhum Agricole, blended from rums aged between 6 and 10 years in ex-bourbon casks and bottled at 43%.

  The XO expression deliberately balances two styles: the fresh, green cane notes characteristic of agricole rum, and a more refined sweetness reminiscent of Cognac. The ex-bourbon casks add a clear spiciness and citrus freshness, while the blended age gives a complexity beyond what a single vintage could achieve alone.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Grassy initial notes tempered by Cognac-like sweetness, hazelnut, praline, cinnamon, ginger and orange, complemented by cocoa, coffee and mocha.

  Palate

  Elegant and easy-going, zesty with lemon, lime and orange zest, spicy and minty with fresh, vegetal cane notes and a hint of peach.

  Finish

  Long and complex with woody roundedness, lime peel, melted spices, coffee, cocoa and plum.

  Trois Rivières Cuvée de L'Océan Rhum Agricole Blanc Martinique 42%

  Item no.: 22227865449-18565

  The Trois Rivières plantation sits so close to the sea that you can taste it in the rum. Cuvée de l'Océan is the distillery's tribute to the salty breeze that blows in over the cane fields every single day.

  Expert Description

  Trois Rivières Cuvée de l'Océan is a Martinique Rhum Agricole Blanc distilled from fresh sugar cane juice and bottled at 42%.

  The rum is produced at the Trois Rivières plantation in southern Martinique, where the distillery's proximity to the sea gives the rum an unmistakably mineral and salty character. As a Rhum Agricole it's distilled from fresh, unpressed cane juice rather than molasses, and as Cuvée de l'Océan it's neither cask aged nor filtered in a way that would strip away its raw, green character.

  The name is no coincidence: the coastal location leaves clear traces of iodine, sea salt and beach pebbles, a profile that sets Cuvée de l'Océan apart from most other white Rhum Agricole from the island.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Freshly cut grass and raspberry, with a hint of sea breeze, sweet cane flower and a mineral, iodine-like nuance.

  Palate

  Fruity sweetness of passion fruit and peach, balanced by pink pepper and red chili, with fresh, freshly cut cane.

  Finish

  Long and salty with mineral notes and an elegant return of fresh cane.
