Easy to drink. Mellow flavor compared to the five star. Nothing too special.

Not been a fan of Barbencourt, but it of course gets worse with less age.
Rubbing alcohol.

Barbarcourt 3 star’s aroma is distinctive , it is exquisite to savor after dinner with its full body, french caribbean aroma and dark color flavor. Excellent price-quality rum

Picked this one up on an end of bin clearance to try my first anything from Haiti. High-end mixer, yes, but can’t drink it straight up. Nose is complex with oak and smoke, but taste is just too much alcohol and also very little mouthfeel.

I have gotten wrapped up in my theory that 3-4 years is optimum aging for rhum agricoles. Since I have their 5-star 8 year and like it, I figured that this lesser aged one could be better. Wrong! The 86 proof really burns the tongue and it needs to breathe for about 30 minutes to be able to drink neat. My theory may hold for Martiniquan agricoles, but not for rhums from Haiti.

Update one month later: All this rhum is good for is mixing with ginger ale similar to my same recommendation for Angostura 5 Year.

Ok avec du thé glacé ou du coke. Pas très bon sur glace.

I picked up a few of these bottles when iI was in Haiti a few years ago and forgot about them in the back of my bar, I did not miss much. The initial nose is a little flat, and too much burn to smell anything else. If you try hard you will find some tobacco, leather and vanilla. The initial tase was sugary but gave away to bitter and burn too soon, it finished up with some sugar cane. As a sipper it did not cut the mustard, but it was fine in a mix drink.

I Remember all my memories were good with this drink. a 3 star Rhum I would not miss but the 5 stars is a thing to miss. my haitian friends first offered me this drink at their house in Boston, when I was 19. a non drinking age for that state. when I go to liquer store checkin out all the good beers I must say this rhum calls me like Jumanji. $23.although I drink red label and as I age I can drink hard liquer, 4 star haitian rhum is always has a character and my drink of choise in rhum on the rocks.... ı prefer bacardi and fresh coconal make the juie myself to make pina colada. u will understand when u go to a caribbian party with the food..everybody drinks Rhum barbancourt and prefered beer. it is a cultural summer drink. for the price it is a fun original bottle always in my basket.

This is a nice rhum. I will admit it is my first agricole but I can't say there is anything bad or offensive about it as others seem to.
The nose is alcohol, no doubt about that, but its a young, light, agricole so can I pretend to be surprised? no.
Palate is nice and has complexity and development. It drinks almost like a whisky, initially soft and round with some light caramel notes as well as a bit of brown sugar. There is also a kind of hard to place sharp-sweet flavor going on, kind of a super light funky sugar cane taste on the mid-palate. Finish and aftertaste leaves this little (tiny) funk and sugarcane as well as a slow and subtle burn which is actually quite nice.
Overall, it's a fine rum, seems to be a nice intro into the style and the region. It's not mind-blowing but it is what it is. I wouldn't seek it out to sip unless youre really a connoisseur of the style but I do think it's very nice as a one-time sip and a mixer for tiki or craft cocktails. Wouldn't put it in a cuba libre or anything like that... it isn't THAT bad.

EDIT: After trying other agricoles this is the most subtle. Honestly not a good representative of the style but decent in its own right.
