Expressive Bielle, whose longer maturation is clearly noticeable compared to the younger bottlings. Concise wood and spicy notes, plus somewhat heavy stone fruit and citrus aromas. A little more of the heavy fruitiness that the nose still promises could have made it to the palate to provide a more active counterpart to the barrel influence - but even so, it remains a great rum.
A very complex, intense Agricole! I am thrilled, Agricole in cask strength simply fits Tasted again today: An almost unbelievably good Agricole, full of aromas from the nose to the finish, very complex. In my opinion, the wood note is perfectly integrated!
This is a retaste for me and I stick to my initial score. It matches the other 2001 released and it's very close to the Danish release by Juuls. Fruity and floral at the same time. Very well balanced Agricole notes and the ABV is very well integrated. A rare bottle and if you get the chance and you love Agricole you should give this one a go.
Probably one of the best bielles of all time. Incredibly elegant, intense aromas of nougat, mint, eucalyptus tea and honey and not too much wood. Insane! For me, probably one of the best Bielles I have ever tasted.
