Bielle LMDW 2001

8.9/10
Rated by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰, Skyfly & 10 more

Lime peel, cardamom and a big hit of fresh mint over leather, prunes and black tea — one taster called it a "Aromenexplosion" of flavor that keeps unfolding in the glass. This 2001 Bielle column-still from Marie Galante sits at 49.7% cask strength and drinks dry, woody and tannic. Several found it more demanding than easy sipping, the kind you sit with for an hour.

  • Fresh mint, spice
  • Layered, evolving
  • Well-integrated alcohol

How does Bielle LMDW 2001 taste?

Aggregated from 12 community reviews.

Dry, minty, tannic aged agricole sipper A complex, mint-and-spice-driven aged agricole that rewards time. Most rate it highly; the wood brings real tannin, and a couple felt a touch too bitter or wished for even more punch.

Perfect for

Agricole fans who like aged, dry, spice-forward rum

Less suitable for

Anyone after sweet, easy sipping or low tannin

02-09.04.2022 This was crazy week, where some friends and I rented a nice summerhouse on Rømø. The plan was to go nuts for a whole week with different rums without going overboard. The final agreement came to 6 rums a day and then enjoy nice walks or ferry rides during the day. Day 6 Notes Medium dark in colour. Nose Fresh, light wood, plum, berries, light chocolate, faint roasted, faint nutts. Palate Oily, balanced, light wood, light salt, plum, berries, light caramel, faint chocolate, faint nougat. Finish Medium to long, round, oily, light cherry, light banana, faint olive, light salt, faint nougat.

Rhum Bielle LMDW 2001 X-Tasting: Ein einzigartiges Set welches Daniel hier ausgegraben hat. Mit zunehmender Zeit wird dieser Rum immer komplexer, die Aromen intensiver. Man kann gefühlt ewig an dem Glas sitzen und entdeckt neue Aromen! Außer in der Nase schmeckt man fast keine Süße was aber nicht negativ ist. Die Minze erinnert ein wenig an einen TDL. Alkohol wirklich perfekt eingebracht!

Epic BIELLE 2001 Tasting. Ein toller Jahrgang, das Set war durchweg von hoher Qualität. Einzig RX5741 und RX4918 waren mir eine Spur zu holzig/bitter. Es gab auch einen eindeutigen Sieger, das Fass welches Kirsch ausgewählt hat war für mich das intensivste, harmonischste. Hier war eine perfekte Mischung aus Holz,Frucht und Gewürzen. Der Blend ist auch toll, aber mit 45% leidet etwas schwach am Gaumen. Insgesamt glaube ich das hochwertigste Set was ich verkostet habe und wird man glaube ich so nie wieder bekommen.
