Barbancourt Estate Reserve 15-Year

Nice rum for a cool night. Great over a big cube. A favorite. Served to a few whiskey drinkers and they loved it.

A sweet aroma, taste is bold but not overpowering with a smooth finish. Best served neat over rocks with a Cohiba nearby. The best with the best; truly world class!

First time I tried this Barbancourt 15 years, it went immediately in my top 5 rums. It is as well my favourite rhum agricole. Very suprinsingly it has a profile that doesn't match the typical vegetal and floral notes of the rhum agricole butbut rather goes in the direction of an aged molasses rum.

Nose is very delicate on the vanilla and cocoa. The mouth is round, equilibrate on cocoa and toffe with a long finish on coffee notes.

In short a great rum for the value and an absolut try!

A superb dry agricole rum bottled at 43% that explodes into a succession of candied fruit, oaks, and clove/cinnamon notes. I first tried this in the 1980's and thought it had vanished, only finding the rather grim 8 year old... Just saw int in a New Hampshire outlet...and it is exactly as tremendous I I remembered. A must have!!!

A diferencia de otras opiniones, yo creo que este excelente ron es un verdadero Ron Agrícola Francés. Algo seco, amaderado leñoso, y ligeramente acaramelado. Ademas la presentación es muy buena, me gusta bastante el diseño de la caja con imágenes de personas que trabajan en el campo con caña de azúcar.
Para mí este es un excelente ron, lastima que en mi país sea muy difícil de conseguir.

43% ABV. Very rich in nose and flavor. Deep vanilla and caramel. Dried fruits. Leather. Thick, oily mouthfeel. Hint of tar (yes!).

One of those rums that you want to keep nosing all night long—even the empty glass. The 15-year is a huge jump above the 8-year (I tried them side-by-side); I'd skip that one entirely. My only complaint is that I wish it had a little more bite. Would LOVE a 100+ proof version of this :)

8+, 9-

Very smooth with little to no burn. Notes of caramel, pineapple, and a bit of spices.

Ron Haitiano de excelente sabor y persistente en boca.

Found this and was impressed by the deep fruity taste without too much sweetness. Will be my regular go-to rhum.

This should be it! Dry, yet balanced and smooth. I don't care for the other agricoles I've tried and in general enjoy dry rums, but wow this is well done!
