Produced in a style similar to rhum agricole (now a strictly observed AOC), Barbancourt is distilled from fresh-pressed Haitian sugarcane rather than molasses. Originally blended solely for the family and friends, this exclusive expression represents a tiny sliver of Barbancourt’s sales. Caramelized cane, candied orange peel and scorched earth on the nose. Apricots, honey and caramel are spiced up with hot edges.
