Production Notes

The Rhum Barbancourt Volcanic Cane Peated Whisky Cask Finish Limited Edition is a tribute to meticulous craft and tradition. Sourced from locally grown sugarcane cultivated in the fertile volcanic soils of Haiti, the raw sugar juice is fermented using artisanal yeast strains. The fermented juice is then distilled and aged in select casks that once housed peated whisky. This unique pre-aging process lends the rum its distinct smoky overtones. The final rum embodies the characteristic robustness balanced by a luxurious mellowness – a fine testament to a celebrated craft of rum-making.
