Tasting Notes

How It's Made

Fun Facts

Product Details

Nose: Rich aromas of caramel and vanilla mingle with subtle hints of oak and dried tropical fruits. A gentle spiciness reminiscent of white pepper adds complexity.

Palate: Smooth and well-balanced, with initial notes of brown sugar and toasted nuts. The mid-palate reveals layers of baking spices, citrus peel, and a touch of molasses. The 8-year aging process is evident in the warm, mellow oak influence.

Finish: Long and satisfying, with lingering notes of dark chocolate and coffee. A subtle peppery warmth builds, balanced by a pleasant sweetness reminiscent of ripe banana. The finish tapers off cleanly, leaving a subtle hint of sugarcane freshness.

Rhum Barbancourt Liberté Libete Limited Edition is crafted from 100% fresh-pressed Haitian sugarcane juice, distilled in traditional French column stills, and aged for 8 years in oak barrels, resulting in a complex agricole-style rum that captures the essence of Haiti's terroir and celebrates the nation's rich history.

The bottle's intricate sequin design is inspired by Haiti's famous "Drapo Vodou" (Vodou flags), blending spiritual artistry with rum craftsmanship. Each bottle takes local artisans several hours to hand-decorate, making it a true collector's item.

Rhum Barbancourt uses a unique strain of sugarcane called "Canne Violette" (Purple Cane) that's native to Haiti. This variety, with its distinctive purple hue, contributes to the rum's complex flavor profile and is part of the distillery's efforts to preserve local agricultural heritage.

The "Liberté Libète" name is a nod to the Haitian Creole war cry used during the Haitian Revolution. It roughly translates to "Freedom or Death!" – capturing the fierce spirit of independence that this rum celebrates. The bottle even includes a QR code linking to a digital exhibit on Haitian history.
