Actually fairly disappointing. Tours are only offered in the mornings and the staff were actually a little rude informing us of this. You can still visit the museum but not the working distillation plant. We had a much nicer visit at other distilleries that were still open in the afternoon. The gift shop was open but only full sized bottles are offered.

We took the train ride which was nice but nothing spectacular and geared toward adults. Full transparency it probably would’ve been better if I understood more French. Nevertheless, I gathered that it was mostly about the flora and fauna of Martinique versus about the Saint James Distillery. That might have been nice, but we were spoiled by the private tour we had at Rhum JM. The overall Museum of Distillation was cool, offering a view of their bank vault with old vintage stock pile of rum from the 1800s. I enjoyed learning more about the Saint James marketing. At the maison, the upstairs Saint James museum was interesting but only took a few minutes to peruse. Finally, the tasting room was the least experiential of the distilleries we toured: the staff was absolutely friendly but didn’t get into the detail of the notes of the rum and how it’s processed (all things to which I’m interested). Nevertheless, the prices of the rum sold were some of the best compared to the grocery store.

It's a beautiful place, reminds me of footage from Django Unchained. Excellent rhums at reasonable prices. Very interesting historical pieces of distillation equipment.

Visited Martinique many years ago (1991 it's about time I returned) and visited several rhum producers including St James. St James is still my favourite rhum. 100% from sugar cane. You can just smell the cane. Rich and clean. Even better drink it straight or superb in coctails, a Martinique Planters Punch, Ti Punch/Caipiranha etc., Rhum Agricole is the very best.

Wonderful tour and tasting.

Amazing place I recommend everyone to see it

Good tasting of karibea rum.

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful site.....but meaningless...the cemetery is not part of it even though it is on the map....a big disappointment. I didn't even take a photo there... Fortunately there is an exhibition of superb photos.... (Original) Très beau site.....mais vide de sens... le cimetière n'en fait pas partie alors qu'il est sur la carte.... une grande déception.

(Translated by Google) WARNING: It's uninteresting without explanations. However, “The guide was not available” we were told. In fact, she left to do her weekend shopping, at 3 p.m., as soon as we passed her office! And no audio guide... nothing to replace it! Too bad the site is nice and quite well saved. It's a waste (Original) ATTENTION : C'est inintéressant sans explications. Or " La guide n'était pas disponible" nous a -t-on dit . En fait elle est partie faire ses courses de fin de semaine , à 15h, dès que nous avons dépassé son bureau ! Et pas d'audio guide... rien pour la remplacer ! Dommage le site est sympa et assez bien sauvegardé . C'est du gâchis
