Carrying the imprint of its French history and Cognac heritage, the Barbancourt distillery has imposed atypical codes for the region in the production of its rum: distillation exclusively from sugarcane juice, double distillation, aging in Limousin oak barrels. However, its rum is unlike that of the French West Indies or the Caribbean. Barbancourt has a unique style, unmistakable with its "fermented" nose. The one bottled by Bristol is no exception, but it subsequently develops particularly indulgent notes of candied red fruits, absent from official bottlings. Atypical and delicious.

The Distillery
Created in 1862 by a Frenchman, Dupré Barbancourt, the namesake Haitian distillery has long owed its unique style to the Charente origins of its founder. The distillery used double distillation in copper pot stills and aged exclusively in Limousin oak casks from the Seguin-Moreau cooperage. With the succession of family owners, the company upgraded its equipment, abandoning the Charente still for a column. Cane juice and the Limousin casks have remained. In 1949, production was moved to the heart of the distillery's cane plantation, on the border with the Dominican Republic. Its unconventional rum is very distinctive, with a "fermented" nose and a strong woody character.
