The Saint James Rhum Vieux Agricole Cuvee 1765 is a 42% ABV, 700ml rum from the renowned Saint James distillery in Martinique. This limited-edition release marks 250 years of rum production at the distillery and pays tribute to the year of creation of the Saint James plantations. Aged for five years in a combination of American white oak and French Limousin oak casks, this agricultural rum boasts a creamy character with notes of vanilla, summer flowers, and dried fruits.
On the nose, the Cuvee 1765 offers a complex array of aromas, starting with a prominent woody character intertwined with an undergrowth atmosphere. Dried fruits, such as apricots, dates, and figs, are complemented by nuts and spices, creating an intoxicating and spicy dance. Aeration enhances roasted notes of nuts and toast, as well as breads like cereal, wholemeal, and rye. The palate is soft, melting, and full-bodied, with a fruity, almost sweet profile reminiscent of dried exotic fruits. The wood and its tannins provide a nourishing, peppery finish, accompanied by a delightful assortment of carefully selected nuts.
The Cuvee 1765 can be enjoyed neat in a wine glass or as a key ingredient in cocktails such as the Old Fashioned. Its delicate complexity makes it suitable for various applications, from sipping to incorporating into mixed drinks. This rum is an exceptional tribute to the rich history and craftsmanship of the Saint James distillery.

Overall, reviewers found the Saint James Rhum Vieux Agricole Cuvee 1765 to be a round and clean Agricole rum, with a good balance of flavors, albeit with a slight lack of fruitiness for some. While it may not be exceptionally complex, it offers a rich, smooth, and soft profile with notes of wood, dried fruits, and a hint of spice. Some found it a bit light and suitable primarily for cocktails like the Old Fashioned, while others appreciated its surprising complexity and aging. However, a few reviewers felt that the alcohol integration could be improved, and noted dominant flavors of hay and wood.
