“Tropical and spicy; hints of vanilla and nuts; easy sipping.”

The "Rhum Rhum Libération 2020" is a creation of the Bielle distillery in Marie Galante, selected and bottled by the independent bottler Velier. Distilled from sugar cane juice using a pot still, this rum exhibits an ABV of 45%. A popular choice among rum enthusiasts, its aroma boasts notes of vanilla, banana, dried apricot, almond, and a woody essence, while the flavor profile is characterized by woody, vanilla, dried apricot, peppery, and grassy notes. Overall, users praise its unique and complex flavors, yet they mention that the lower ABV variation may lose some depth when compared to its full-proof counterparts. An enjoyable and approachable rum, it serves as a fitting introduction to the world of Rhum Agricole.

How does this rum taste?

The Rhum Rhum Libération 2020 enchants with its vanilla, banana, and almond bouquet, though some find it lacks complexity, diluted, with a disappointingly quick finish. Still, its spicy, earthy notes create a pleasant, albeit non-distinct, sipping experience.

“Relaxed Rhum Rhum. Does not quite come up to its excellent predecessors.”

“Nose mild, fruity and sweet. Besides an elusive note - possibly "earthy"?on the palate it reminds me fleetingly of Highland whiskey. The earthy note is also present here, a bit like wet musty wood.The medium-long finish brings no surprise and remains predominantly on the woody side. Does not belong to the varieties of rum that I prefer.”

“Having tried the release that hasn't been watered down I habe to admit that a bit has been lost when reducing the ABV. It will however attract more people by releasing two different levels of ABV. The nose is fruity with spices, wood and a hint of nuts. The palate is lightly dry, yet thin with fruit, wood and spices trailed by some nuts. The finish is medium long and warm with fruit, wood and spices.”

“Un rhum qui se laisse porté au nez par les épices, les notes herbeuses et végétales, une pointe terreuse et les fruits secs (abricots), sur un profil typique de la région. Cette douceur au nez se retrouve en bouche, avec des notes herbacées et végétales marquées, du foin, de la camomille et de la fraîcheur, puis suivent la canne à sucre, les épices douces, les fruits secs et l’amande. La finale, de longueur moyenne, poursuit sur la même trame terreuse et épicée, sèche et légèrement boisée. Un profil linéaire qui manque malheureusement de caractère pour être vraiment marquant.”

“Due to the excellent Liberation range, expectations were high. Disappointment after even worse. rhum without depth, completely flat and indistinct, is sweetness and emptiness. Really bad joke.”

“Blind tasting. Sugarcane spirit, from fresh juice, not molasses. Sweet-grassy. Vanilla. Fresh fruits. Toffee oak. Sweet toasted oak. Was surprised that’s it’s Liberation 2020. Expected more French wine influence. But rum are good. Blind score was 82-83/100”

“Grosse déception, Profil aromatique faible. Nez un peu épicé et boisé, on retrouve une note de fruit confit et de fruit séché mais c’est pauvre. En bouche rien. Un peu de vous, un peu de vanille, 3 secondes et puis plus rien. Une sensation de chaud reste et un côté asséchant. On dirait qu’il a été réduit à la va-vite avec de l’eau déminéralisé, sans qu’aucun soin ni soit apporté. Dommage.”

“Je n ai pas encore gouté l’es full proof en 2012 / 2015, ou même le 2020 donc difficile d avoir un point de comparaison, mais c est franchement pas trop mal. Un nez sur la banane, papayes avec un côté clairement épicé et un peu de fût de bois. En bouche, c est différent, de suite un côté allspice, mélangé aux fruit et épices…. On sent clairement que c est dilué…. Dommage ! La fin est moyenne sur les épices. Dans l ensemble c est quand meme bon et cela promet pour tester les autres”
