Barbancourt 5 Star Reserve Especiale 8-Year

Definite quality rum. It's great on the rocks - you can sip it also. i want to buy another bottle; it is a bit pricey coming from Haiti.

I could see his becoming my daily sipper. Different then other rums I tried. It was nicely balanced. Very fruity and just dry enough to cut through the sweetness with a smooth finish.

This rum is pretty delicious. It has strong oak flavors but not overpowering. Reminds me of Appleton 12 with a hint more complexity and bite from the agricole

I don't care if this undermines my rum qualifications but this is my only Mai Tai rum. Grassiness marries with Pierre Ferrand dry curacao elegantly and the wood the Barbancourt takes on stands up to the heaviest dem syrup and orgeat. You can drink a cocktail with only 1.5 ounces of Barbancourt and 6 ounces of juice and not forget that you are drinking rum when you're drinking it. Barbancourt all day my babies.

Just the third sort of sugar cane based rum in my life and I'm falling in love with them.

Absolutely smooth and delicious, pretty strong, but practically without alcohol notes, a bit smoky and 100% fruity - it's Next Stop New Life in my exploration of rum world.

Enjoy!

Smooth neat. I can’t afford the high end shit so this so far is as good as it gets for me. I have to be careful or else I’ll finish the bottle and sleep for 24 hours

This agricole rum has a nice taste and a good character despite being young, only 8 years old.

C'est un bon rhum. J'ajoute ce dernier aux rhums qui représentent un bon rapport qualité/prix. Un bon 8 ans agricole.

Nice marriage between wood and cane, fruits and oak.

Very easy rum good stuff smooth and a pleasant drink
