    Aïe aïe aïe, pourquoi tant d’eau de mer? Ok c’est un peu le principe mais c’est clairement un super rhum, avec un sympa assez MG, mais en bouche on boit la tasse. Malgré tout la canne revient avec du chocolat et pas mal d’orange, mais le sel reste sur la langue et tapisse trop. Dommage les ingrédients étaient là, mais pas assez bien dosés.

    Two drums plunged into the open sea at a depth of 20 meters... it could have been a good test. But in my opinion, it's a complete failure here, and it's really disgusting. In my opinion, the salinity provided by the seawater is too present and distracting, and the rum is too young and has only taken on the salt, or almost all of it. Nothing else, no length in the mouth, in short a big disappointment... and what an affront to Bielle!

    An explosive rum. There's no comparison, and the tasting is unsettlingly pleasurable. There's greediness, roundness and the markers of bielle.

    Un rhum Bielle (Marie-Galante) blanc de base, élevé pendant 10 mois dans 2 fûts distincts immergés à 20 mètres de profondeur sous la mer. Ces 2 fûts distincts ont respectivement contenu : - Fût n°1 : Bielle blanc 60° - Fût n°2 : Bielle blanc 45° Durant 10 mois sous la mer, chaque rhum a perdu 10% d'alc/vol dûe à la réduction lente et naturelle par absorption naturelle (par capillarité) de l'eau de mer par les fûts. - Fût n°1 : Bielle blanc 60° ➡️ 50° - Fût n°2 : Bielle blanc 45° ➡️ 35° ℹ️ Les rhums issus des 2 fûts ont été assemblés, titrant à 49% d'alc./vol. Je peux vous garantir à 200% que c'est un rhum atypique, très porté sur les agrumes (orange) et la canne au sel (je ne parle pas de notes salines, mais bien de SEL!)...du sel en quantité abusive ! faut aimer ! comme si quelqu'un avait fait exprès de saler le rhum 😅 et personnellement je n'ai pas aimé, cela devient dérangeant et écoeurant. L'eau de mer ayant bien été absorbée par les fûts durant 10 mois...il y a de quoi, c'est complètement logique que le rhum soit si salé, d'autant plus que un des 2 fûts a subi une cassure qui fait que l'eau de mer s'est davantage infiltrée dans le rhum.
