Barbancourt 5 Star Reserve Especiale 8-Year

A classic but somewhat different rhum. Do not dismiss this rum because you do not like agricole.

Has very little by way of vegetal/grassy notes. An excellent complex sipping rum.

You don't have to drown this one with fruit juices to make it palatable.
On par with the basic Appleton "Special Gold" as a mixer but definitely much harsher and lacking all the smoothness of the Appleton
For those who think that a burning throat means an alcohol is good and strong.

If you need something to make good (but not great) cocktails, Barbancourt 5 star is a great choice. It's about like Mount Gay Extra Old—I don't choose it from my collection to drink neat, but as part of a cocktail it is perfectly good.

Bon rhum sans conteste, mais sans surprise non plus si ce n'est que pour un viel agricole je l'ai trouvé relativement ''doux''. A tester.

This rum is undrinkable!
its smell is synthetic, like a solvent. Its taste is very strange: medicine, sour, a little iron, very tannic and you have the feeling that the mouth to fall asleep! Not recommended.

a pesar de que no es el de 15 años, llena todas las expectativas de los conocedores roneros

Beautiful colors. Smooth, with pleasant notes of oak and a soft scent of the cane sugar.

ikke nogen stor rom, da smagen ikke er så nuanceret. Men den er dejlig. Frisk, med en snert af citrongræs!

I heard about this Haitian rum in the forums, which uses sugarcane instead of molasses and thought I would give it a try. I picked it up on sale for $18.99 which is a good price. I found it to be surprisingly good for the price. Nice color, good notes and quite smooth. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a great rum at a great value.

Kelleti rum.
Billoy verga succa appetae.
Sinodid nea tao kelleti.
