Haiti | Aged

Barbancourt 5 Star Reserve Especiale 8-Year Rum is agricultural, meaning it's produced from fermented sugar cane juice rather than the more typical molasses. The sugar cane juice is double distilled and aged for eight years in Limousin oak barrels.

Dupré Barbancourt created the Barbancourt rum recipe in 1862 in Haiti, where the rum is still produced today. A French national, Barbancourt incorporated traditional French methods including double-distillation in the process.

If 4 years old was not drinkable even with coke, this you can take if nothing else is available.

Don't be fooled by bad reviews, this r(h)um has it all - a bit of smoke, charred oak, honey, cinnamon, toffee, very little burn on the finish. There's also a plasticky, medicinal element to this that's not unpleasant. The flavors dance on the palate. Mouthfeel is nice and thick. I also get hints of honeyed raisins. A lover of bourbon and scotch will enjoy this fine offering.

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

Rhum extrêmement puissant en bouche même si le nez se laisse courtiser
Du mal à finir le verre
Un côté herbacé et médicamenteux qui n'est pas mon style

i like it. very smooth for this kind of rhum. creamy. light and bold at the same time. long aftertaste with spicy notes. smoke. tabacco. if you like unsweetend rums, try this. a good buy and balanced sugar cane juice rhum!

but the mouth is just a touch hot; nice. I tried the 15 first... love the 15yo, and while this is nice, the 15 is fabulous. When I drink this, I always think, "Why didn't I get the 15?"

sugar test- 4-8g
