    Another nice surprise when tasting this one at a rum event in Copenhagen. The nose is wonderfully fruity with some coffee and a tail of wood. The palate is nice and complex while well balanced between alcohol and fruit and spices. In the back i get some wood and nuttyness. The finish is long and fruity with some vanilla and wood.

    Nose full of rubber, but not unpleasant at all. The palate follows the nose with an impressive roundness for an agricultural wine. Very different from other Bielles, better than most in fact. It's good but doesn't give me enough desire to buy the bottle. Nevertheless, I enjoyed it very much for its uniqueness.

    Wow, extrem überraschend - die Nase gibt schon ein extrem begeisterndes, „alt“ anmutendes Bild frei, das den klar erkennbaren, aber noch nicht zu opulenten Fasseinfluss offenbart, gleichzeitig aber dunkle Früchte, Gewürze, Bitterschokolade und Kaffee preisgibt. Am Gaumen sticht zunächst die Bitternote aus der Reifung etwas hervor, das Gesamtprofil bleibt aber harmonisch und holt mich prima ab. Hat Züge alter Demeraras, bleibt aber eigenständig. Gefällt mir richtig gut! Aber

    Excellent rhum. Riche et complexe. Belle longueur. Du grand bielle 😍
