Velier Magnum Series #2 Saint James 12 Year 2010 1500ml

In 2021, La Maison and Velier launched a rum bottling range in collaboration with Magnum, the legendary photo agency founded in 1947 by some of the greatest names in photography including Robert Capa and Henri Cartier-Bresson. Magnum has long brought together many of the world’s finest photojournalists, and the rums bottled for this range match the quality of these legendary photographers. All releases are available in both 700ml and 1500 ml (aka “magnum”) bottles.

This second edition of the Magnum range celebrates American photographer Alex Webb, born in 1952 and a member of the agency since 1979. He is renowned for his vibrant, captivating photographs that capture serendipitous, enigmatic moments. More than just a collection of rums, this series embodies a bridge between the art of distillation and that of the image. Each bottle brings these two worlds together, highlighting an original work by a master photographer and an exceptional rum from a renowned distillery. This range is designed to appeal not only to rum lovers, but also to art and photography collectors.

Established in 1765, Saint James is the oldest and largest distillery in Martinique, standing as a true pillar of the island's rum heritage. To thjis day, Saint James continues to uphold the rigorous standards of the Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée.

Distilled in a traditional Creole column, this expression is a blend of two exceptional vintages—2003 and 2010. It was bottled on-site at 45% ABV, capturing the authentic essence of aged Rhum Agricole.
