Since 1862, the Maison Barbancourt has been making Agricole rhum in the beautiful island nation of Haiti. Pot-stilled from 100% sugar cane juice (the distinct characteristic of "Agricole"), then aged in French Limousin Oak casks, Barbancourt sets itself apart from other Caribbean rhum houses, in utilizing a process that is usually reserved for making cognacs. The process lends itself to a more refined spirit, with a rich body and depth of character usually lost in this category of spirits. The nose on this amber colored gem is perfumed with candied citrus, toasted nuts and vanilla, and leads straight to a luxurious palate layered with cooked pears, cinnamon, fresh sugar cane and a lingering and gently spicy finish. An incredible sipper. *Spirits available for in-store pickup & local delivery. For NY state shipping, call the shop directly.
