How does this rum taste?

  • Complex flavor profile
  • Balanced alcohol integration
  • Sophisticated oak and wine cask aging

The Bielle "Brut de Fût" rum, produced in Marie Galante in 2012 and aged for 8 years, boasts a rich and complex profile that appeals to connoisseurs. Distilled from sugarcane juice using a column still, this 53.7% ABV rum offers a symphony of sugarcane, woody, and sweet notes. Users praise its well-integrated alcoholic warmth and balance of flavors, including dried fruit, vanilla, and a peppery finish. The dual maturation in oak and prestigious Yquem wine casks imparts a sophisticated character reminiscent of fine spirits from the French Antilles. Although some find the wood and spice profiles overpowering, others admire the rum's depth and subtle nuances of mint and licorice.

"I almost feel bad putting such a low score compared to the other members, but I find that the pepper and wood take up too much space even though the agricultural framework and its freshness are still present. I'm a little disappointed, especially for a €100 bottle 🙃 30/04: I'm going to leave the rum in the bottle for a while to see if the oxidation does it any good Update 21/12/21: ca y est le bois s'est apaisé avec la bouteille aux 3/4 et des arômes très pâtissiers sont apparus. A real pleasure."

"A hint of mint and herbs, less present in its 2014 counterpart. I like it! But I prefer the 2014, which is more gourmand."

"Au nez, côté orange / chocolat mais amer (pas sucré). Un côté mentholé également et végétal , ainsi que du bois et des épices plus légères. L’alcool est présent mais bien intégré. En bouche, le côté mentholé ressort beaucoup, on a des épices (poivre) et du bois bien marqué et le côté fruit que j’avais au nez reste présent mais moins marqué. La finale est moyenne avec le côté bois qui ressort et c’est plus rond avec le fruité qui reste."

"Další velmi sympatický zástupce bielle, tentokrát z roku 2012. Máta, koření a šťáva na nose, chuť je velmi komplexní a za mě je to parádni agricole s perfektně integrovaným alkoholem. Závěr spíše krátší. Moc hezké."
