Rhum Barbancourt Haitian Proof White Rum 110 Proof

Rhum Barbancourt has been distilling in Haiti since 1862, a true classic in the world of rum. Founded by Dupré Barbancourt, who brought Cognac-making techniques from France, the distillery is still family-run and produces its rhum from pure sugarcane juice, not molasses, similar to a rhum agricole. This Haitian Proof White Rum, at a robust 110 proof, is a testament to their heritage, offering an unaged spirit that showcases the raw character of the fresh cane. Barbancourt is known for its quality and has a global reputation, making it a well-respected name for those stocking their home bar with authentic craft spirits and seeking quality cocktail ingredients. This particular expression is notable for its distillation strength, chosen to best reveal the rhum's floral and fresh sugarcane notes with hints of citrus and a light pepperiness, ideal for full-flavored cocktails.
