Aptly named the Rhum Barbancourt 15 Year Old, this rum is made in the traditional French Caribbean style which uses fermented sugar cane juice instead of molasses which is more prevalent in Caribbean rums. After fermentation, the juice is then distilled twice being aged for 15 years in French Limousin oak barrels – the most sought after wood in the distilling world. The end result is a rhum that displays a relatively cognac-like character and lacks the unbridled sweetness of its darker Caribbean counterparts.
