HoneyBatcher GmbH Barbancourt Haiti Barreled 2004
Sipped neat, this 22-year Barbancourt is rounder than most cane-juice rums this age — loads of yellow stone fruit, mirabelle jam, vanilla and caramel, with a buttery biscuit note running through. The oak stays light and there's a faint grassy, agricole edge. At 59% the alcohol is present but rarely gets in the way. Dries out toward the finish as the fruit lingers.
The community says- Yellow stone fruit
- Rounder than expected
- Cask-strength heat

How does HoneyBatcher GmbH Barbancourt Haiti Barreled 2004 taste?
Aggregated from 14 community reviews.
Round, fruity 22-year Haitian at cask strength Most tasters call it surprisingly round and fruity for a Haitian rum, and well balanced against its age. One found the alcohol a touch unintegrated — otherwise a happy crowd.

#6325 06/08.02.2026 My first visit to The Village in Nuremberg and it was a very pleasant surprise. I will definitely attend again as there is more than enough rum going around. Also a very nice bottling with a bit more Agricole to the nose and palate. Good balance between wood and ABV and nice grassy notes.

Probiert auf der Village'26 bei Fabi am Stand. Ich finde Honeybatcher ist einfach ein Geheimtipp, der bei vielen unter dem Radar läuft. Der Rum selbst ist echt super rund. Hätte ich aus Haiti so nicht erwartet. Weiter so Fabi
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Wirklich leckerer ungewöhnlich runder und fruchtig, süßlicher Barbancourt! Buttriger Biscuit, Mirabellenmarmelade, Vanille und Karamell, leicht holzig und viel gelbes Steinobst. Tolles Ding was Fabi hier ausgesucht hat!

Extremly well balanced BBC displaying a nice fruit basket and influence from the bourbon barrel paying tribute to its long time in the cask.

Review by Agricoler
Gegen den ersten Release von Rum Artesanal getestet. Deutlich mehr Frucht und insgesamt einfach leckerer für mich. Tolle Frucht und Butternoten. Insgesamt ist es aber nicht zwingend mein Profil. Mir ist der Alkohol einfach irgendwie schlecht eingebaut.
Review by Dirk Becker
Erstaunlich fruchtig, gelbe Früchte, etwas Brioch, Alkohol ist präsent aber nicht unangenehm, hintenraus wird er trockener, Frucht bleibt Vanille gesellt sich dazu
