    Pas très objectif comme avis, mais voici mon impression détaillée (bouteille malheureusement vide dès le samedi soir, pas de photo dédiée) : N : canne, fraicheur mentholée, réglisse. Caramel au beurre salé, ananas, zestes d’orange. B : ronde, chaleureuse, sirupeuse. Fruits exotiques, ananas, mangue, boisé gras, réglisse. Fruits confits, orangette > profond & complexe. F : Finale : Persistante et huileuse, chocolat noir & touche mentholée > durable et raffinée. Une finale beaucoup plus fraiche et longue que son petit frère qui me font monter la note.

    Dernier des Bielle goûtés (rapidement, sans photo, de sous le comptoir) sur le stand de Swell de Spirits. Plus convenu et moins surprenant que le 2014. mais aussi sûrement un bon représentant de ce que cette distillerie fait de meilleur. Une belle canne pâtissière joliment boisée. Mériterait beaucoup plus de temps.
