Saint James 12 Year Old Rhum Vieux Agricole

The Saint James Rhumerie on the French owned Caribbean island of Martinique was one of the very first plantations to produce "declared" vintage rums, and this bottle is one of those vintages!

Made from sugar cane havested in 1885! Nobody knows for certain how old the precious liquid inside is, but it was bottled prior to the huge volcanic eruption of Mont Pelée in 1902. This catastrophic event devastated the town of Saint Pierre, and damaged the Saint James estate. It's nothing short a miracle that any of these bottles survived.

Age: 12 Years Old

43% ABV / 70cl
