Bielle Brut de Fût 2014
Honeyed flowers, cut grass and ripe sugarcane up front, with oak and a little menthol filling in the finish. Several tasters call it one of the sweeter agricoles around — the sweet-wine cask adds a grape-like sweetness on top. At 56.5% the alcohol stays remarkably quiet; most say they'd have guessed well under 50%. Fresh and easy to drink, if not the most layered Bielle.
- Alcohol well hidden
- Honey and flowers
- Fresh, easy sipping

How does Bielle Brut de Fût 2014 taste?
Aggregated from 58 community reviews.
Soft, honeyed agricole with hidden strength Widely liked as a soft, fruity, honey-forward agricole with a beautifully buried 56.5%. The common note: the nose outshines a palate some find a touch light and rounded-off by the cask.

Review by Bavarian Rum Lover
Great bouquet and aroma: fresh flower meadow with honey, very fragile and soft in the mouth, on the finish pushes the oak and there is a formal explosion of flavor. The alcohol at 56.5% is not felt in any way, blind I would have guessed no more than 46%. A wonderfully round, friendly and fresh Bielle without corners and edges, which invites both to enjoy and to carouse. Absolute buy recommendation at a price of about 90€ and deserved 89 points with air to the top with a few weeks / months of oxidation.
Review by Arnaud Faverjon
Magnifique brut de fût de chez Bielle, quelle puissance, quelle longueur, un vrai bonheur!
Review by Rene Pfeiffer
Very smooth, sweet and fruity rum. Has something of flowery honey. A little grassy, not too much. Wood also comes through on the palate, but more in the finish. Not really long and complex, but tasty. I really like it.
Review by TheRhumhoe
A Bielle that combines the aromatic sweetness and strength of the brut de fût. The nose is reminiscent of dried fruits, grass, spices and wood with a hint of honey embellishing the whole. The rum evolves on the palate towards mirabelle plum, candied fruits, chilli and menthol, allowing the flavors to express themselves freely with a high but hardly noticeable alcohol level. The finish reveals more woody, vanilla, spicy and chocolate notes on a bitter background. A complete, rich and elegant rum that is a credit to its house.
Review by Rare Akuma
Extremely light and vibrant nose with dried apricot, raisins and a bitter acidic touch from yuzu. Reasonably oak influenced with lots of vanilla. Refined honey and canned peaches induce some serious mouth-watering sweetness. Then freshly cut grass, sliced cucumber and kaffir leaves. Fresh, minty and very flowery base. A more concentrated profile in the mouth. Lightly bitter, but especially dry. We still get spoiled with dried fruits, honey and yuzu. This time accompanied by heavily sugared candied fruits. More barrel notes with not only oak and vanilla, but also cinnamon, pine and light peppers. The grass and mint are dialed down, but the flowers get cranked up. Quite lovely. Short, dry, but very fresh and lightly smoked finish with more yuzu, grass, resin and barrel. Honestly I enjoyed the nose very much and would have liked it to come through even more on the palate. The barrel has rounded off the flavours a little too much. Still, I think the quality is very high.
Review by Boletus
The white fine barrels used here bring a beautiful grape sweetness and appropriate tannins into play, which harmonize well with the already beautiful distillate from Marie Galante. Add to this the toasty vanilla base of the bourbon barrels and you have a fine agricole with considerable complexity!
Review by Jakob
Freshness paired with wood and the right dose of sweetness - an elegant Bielle in full bloom. White undoubtedly to please and scores with balance. Very nice bottling.
Review by Alex1981
Wonderful sweet Bielle, has the right mix of fruits and creamy Nougat/Vanilla paired with a great mouthfeel. Alcohol is hardly noticeable, yet still has enough power to transport the flavors. Great choice and even the white wine finish works well here.
Review by Vladimír Rejholec (AlkoTip)
The sweetest agricole I've ever had. Honey, floral, cut grass, plum sweetness, vanilla, menthol. Long finish. It may lack more complexity, but it's an extremely enjoyable rum to sip with a wonderfully integrated alcohol.
Review by LukaŽiga
8,2:On the nose, the first impression we get is a bit waxy, varnished, woody with beeswax. A hint of menthol comes in and the woodiness with vanilla and light caramel are felt.There is a ripe, juicy sugarcane, earthy. With aeration, the sugarcane pairs with fruitier, bourbon fruits, herbal aromas, with the orchard fruits usually tender to Bielle rums. Mirabelle plum and peach play the game of hide and seek, become dried later, while remaining linked to candied vegetal, for a gourmet profile. 8,5:On the palate the attack is warm, round and balanced, alcohol integration is top. The sugarcane and its cooked juice with hints of licorice and anise, melt into menthol and aromatics. The rum is now honey candied and fresh, mineral, fruity with dried fruits, balanced, the wood dry, spicy, a bit roasted with caramel, sweet wine notes are present and not intrusive. 8,3:The finish is woody and peppery, dry, long, the sugarcane is fresh, mineral and fruity, a bit flowery. Edit:9.2.25 Still very pleasant...
Review by Rodolphe
A friend takes out this bottle he brought back from Guadeloupe. It's bielle, it's good, it's quite smooth with a nice sweetness. I don't think the sweet wine barrel is necessary, as it adds extra sweetness. I prefer classic Bourbon aging.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Very nice and round bielle. Extremely drinkable and yet complex enough. I like very much!
Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
Tasting this after the 10y 45%. Less layered. More spirit forward/less rum. More white wine. Good but might be better in another order. Like to try again.
Review by Djehey
Comparison between 2014 brut de fût.More expressive profile but also less balanced with less well integrated alcohol. Fresher than its brother but also less elegant.
Review by Werner10
A nice woody profile with a good sweetness and a bit dry. Perfect for those that love whisky imo.
