Description

A litre bottle of 1885 Saint James' Plantation Martinique Rhum. This bottle was distilled in 1885. We estimate this was bottled in the 1940s when the company was still run by Francois Paulin Lambert's son, Ernest. The company was sold in 1955 by his widow following his death.

Please note that there is no ABV stated on the bottle.
