Cask Type
French Limousin oak
An aged rum from Haiti, made from pure sugar cane juice and matured for eight years in French Limousin oak casks. The sugar cane juice ferments for three days before distillation, and the rum is bottled at 43% ABV in a 700 ml bottle with gift packaging. It is suited to drinking neat or in cocktails. The house was founded in 1862 by Dupré Barbancourt, who brought double distillation and Limousin oak ageing from Cognac production to rum. Madame Mevs sugar cane is among the varieties used for the cane juice.
