Romdeluxe Barbancourt Collectors Series No. 5 BMHC

"A nice rum with a long lightly dry finish. Lightly fruity with spices and lovely oak, caramel and chocolate. Very light vegetal and licorice notes in there as well. Price to quality is very good in my mind."

"Ich mag Barbancourt ganz gerne und die Romdeluxe Abfüllung kann nicht zwar nicht mit meinem Benchmark von RA mithalten, aber ist trotzdem ganz gefällig. Leichte Honigsüße, etwas fruchtig (Birne), leicht pflanzlich. Alkohol ist ok eingebunden."

"A beautiful, old Barbancourt with 60%. Let's see. Nose: fine aromas, not pungent. Sweetish-spicy and slightly floral. Sugar syrup and caramel give a pleasant sweetness, raisin and bergamot with some lime and gooseberry the fruitiness. I also find vanilla and something that reminds me of candle wax. Quite pleasing. 8,0 Palate: here rather strong and spicy-woody with less fruit. Initially bitter and salty with nutmeg and caraway, then metallic with lemon zest and a hint of gooseberry. Very dry overall. Herbs and gooseberry or something similar on the finish. 7,8 Interesting overall, but not round and too bitter on the palate."

"Very tasty!"

"Super relaxed barbancourt."

"I don't find the alcohol well integrated, somewhat pungent. Long finish, which is also very alcoholic. The middle section is good, but seems very young, could do with longer storage."

"Quite interesting, especially in the nose beautiful fruit aromas with light herbs. Reminiscent of herbal sweets from the Christmas market. More spice and herbs on the palate. Accompanied by a sugary spiciness the whole time. Beautifully balanced."

"Rum Fest 11 Berlin"

"Farba zlato žltá, kvapky pomaly stekajú na stene, vôna mandle sušené ovocie mango, ananas, chuť dominuje tropicke ovocie mango, ananás sladkosť, mierna horkosť, mandle drevnatosť, v úvode náznak trávovitosti, stredne dlhý ovocný záver. Vôbec by som nepovedal že má 60% dobre integrovaný alkohol"

"Quite promising on the nose, loads of red fruits, grenadine syrup, some buttery notes, tropical fruits and a fainting earthy note. Slightly deceived by the mouth and finish, more driven by menthol, vanilla and wood than the nose. Eventually though, round and rich, but not long enough."

"Pas mal de fûts ont été détruits par le tremblement de terre de 2010 mais pas celui-ci. 228 bouteilles. Au nez, on retrouve la vanille souvent présente dans les Barbancourt, mais avec un mélange de caramel et d'épices. En bouche, c'est très floral voir végétal, toujours avec cette touche de caramel. Un peu de réglisse aussi. Les 60° sont très bien intégrés, on les sent pas. La finale est sympa, assez douce, mais elle pourrait être plus longue. Il y a une touche de boisé qui vient à la fin. Le résultat est très gourmand, on lui donnerait 10 ou 15° de moins."
