I find that at less than 30 euros it is an excellent choice. To have behind your bar.

Très bon rhum vieux d Haïti

This is my favorite aged Barbancourt. You can taste the rum much more than the more aged expressions. It's similar to low ester Jamaican flavor. A higher abv would help. I drink this neat. I will rebuy. I suspect this has a bit of added sugar.

Trop d alcool (mauvais) aucune subtilité. Je déconseille. Et vu le prix vraiment déçu. Le nez est fort en alcool qui cache toute senteur. En bouche on a encore le gout de l alcool mais pas grand chose de plus. A voir dans une 2eme dégustation car je sors juste d une grippe..

A rum tasted at the Lucerne Gin and Rum Festival 2024. An agricultural nose with bitter herbs, sweetness and yellow fruit. The palate begins smoothly, the aromas grow and the alcohol takes over. The finish is short with bitter wood. Not a very interesting rum, but well made and pleasant to drink.

Actually only bought it to compare it in parallel with its Pondon from the 70s, but already started to get rid of it. :-D Floral, for me, indefinable notes, a bit fruity, all very thin. On the whole, it's nothing.

My first "French still" rum 😁 had promised me more.

Slabsi nic moc rum.

Good, not too sweet, but nothing more

A slightly fruity aroma, somewhat woody and dry. The taste is initially slightly sweet, then a little more bitter, slightly alcoholic.

The last one, in the background a few cool samples from Jarek :) Also a little too sweet, vanilla, wood and spices on the nose. Too much sweetness on the palate, especially vanilla and chocolate are recognizable. But unfortunately the alcohol is not well integrated either.

Again the price to quality is pretty good though this one I'd probably use for a mixer. You and sweet with fruit and light dryness.

Bon rapport qualité-prix à 30€ pour les long drinks.

jemny, nasladly a dost koreneny, ale pomerne dobre pitelny

Not enough of anything to be a reasonable sipper, better for mixing.
