The Bartenders Society Competition 2023

The 2023 THE BARTENDERS SOCIETY professional mixology competition organized by the LA MARTINIQUAISE-BARDINET Group around the Martinique SAINT JAMES Rhum Agricole was held in Paris at Place Saint Germain des Près for its international final in November. 20 candidates from 18 countries came to propose their cocktail creations featuring the SAINT JAMES Rhum Agricole and CARAIBOS Fruit Juices brands. This year, the competition proposed to combine the classic cocktails with local ingredients from the candidates. We are very proud to announce the victory of Boris BLANC, who came from Martinique to sublimate SAINT JAMES Rhum Agricole !

Elaboration

Since 1765, SAINT JAMES has produced “Rhums Agricoles” from pure sugarcane juice. Harvested from January to July, the canes are quickly crushed to ensure their aromatic power and freshness. The sugarcane juice is then fermented before being distilled in Creole stills at the distillery in Sainte-Marie. The blending of the Rums is a painstaking process carried out by the cellar master. The Rums that will be aged are then placed in oak casks, with the tropical climate leading to maturation that is almost twice as fast as on the mainland and a rate of evaporation, known as the “angel’s share”, that is twice as significant.
