Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
I simply have to give this rhum an above-average rating. For me, it's an all-round success. I particularly like this fresh, grassy sweetness, which makes it a prime example of an agricole. It reminds me a little of a La Dame Jeanne - that's a good thing.
Review by Lot-NAS
That’s a great Bielle. Not overly complex but pretty smooth and balanced really nice. Without looking at the price tag this could have been a nice companion as a daily sipper. No need search, interpret, and spend a lot of time. It is all there, just straight up and I really enjoyed it.
Review by Mathieu Bgd
Un Bielle très bien dosé, avec une attaque sur les épices, et une belle longueur en bouche. Un très bon Swell.
Review by Vincent D
A real success. The woodiness is present but controlled. Pleasant freshness and gourmandise. Vanilla from the cane. Lovely fruit, full of acidity. Good length on the palate. Strong acidity on the finish (red fruit?). Really tasty! Initially tasted at RhumFest, so not the best conditions. Not enough notes taken either. So I'll have to taste it again. But I really appreciated its finesse. Not an all-woody agricole. A very pleasant sweetness. And alcohol present but discreet.

#4058 This is a very well balanced rum and it has a very fresh Agricole profile. I love the nice floral notes because they mingle very well with the fruit notes and vanilla. Draws really nice curtains in the glass and the empty glass is nice and fresh with some added dried fruit and what I'd call wet hay ☺️
Review by Oliver
Classic Bielle profile. Floral, spicy, peppery and yet fresh. I like it really well!
Review by Mike H.
I didn’t take any notes at the Rhum Fest so a more detailed review will follow as soon as I get the chance to sample this rum again in a better context. I also tried the Bielle unaged which was very good. No clue when it will be released. The unaged Mexican was pretty good as well, pretty strong stuff. It will be released at the end of the year.
Review by Rare Akuma
On the nose initially aggressively sour, a note that takes more than 30 minutes to really settle and redevelop into something more approachable. We start with fresh sugarcane, berrymix and a hefty citrus blend. It’s very hard to pinpoint any of the fruits, but red apple is definitely among them. Then we get a substructure of barrel notes layered with a furniture polish base. The essence is captured by a flowery and herbal heart; meadows and most noticeably thyme. On the palate the same fruits reappear, with the addition of blue grapes. Again lots of citrus, but less sour than expected. The experience is slightly tannic and swept with seawind. The meadows turn parched, but a flowery heart still persists. The finish is unexpectedly very sweet with caramel notes, slightly tannic with dried fruits and raisins. All-in-all a lovely experience, but a bottling that is overpriced.

Review by TheRhumhoe
Un joli Bielle au profil à la fois classique mais très bien maîtrisé. Le nez se prononce sur des arômes floraux et végétaux importants. Les fruits sont très discrets, tandis que le bois, les épices et les notes toastées rendent le profil plus harmonieux et varié. C’est à la fois solide et typique de la distillerie. On retrouve au palais un rhum sec mais très équilibré. Les notes végétales et florales de la canne à sucre sont contrebalancées par des saveurs iodées, salées, un boisé léger et une gourmandise apportée à la fois par les épices et les fruits secs. L’alcool est très bien intégré. La finale est d’une longueur correcte. On y discerne une certaine astringence et des notes toastées. Le boisé, les épices, les notes plus terreuses et la canne à sucre sont également de la partie. Un rhum sans excès, mais très bien fait dans son registre. Le rapport qualité / prix vaut vraiment le détour.
Review by Mentalo
Leichte floralen Noten, etwas Gewürze, Apfel und Zitrusnoten. Der Alkohol ist gut integriert, leichte Säure. Ist eine gute Abfüllung, aber die Messlatte bei Bielle ist hoch und es gibt da bessere/komplexere.
Review by cigares
Un rhum assez jeune avec un nez de poire, de beurre et d’orange. La bouche est très fraîche avec un alcool très discret et toujours un côté poire. La finale est moyenne sur les herbes et les fruits à pépins. Le verre vide laisse ressortir un côté boisé et fumé assez discret auparavant.
Review by Jarek
Aus gegeben Anlass 😉habe ich mir paar Tastings mit Agricole aus Martinique, Guadeloupe und Marie Galante vorgenommen. Heute ist Bielle dran. Fruchtig, floral und leicht, weniger komplex. Mit hauchdünnen Abstand der Schwächste der vier heute verkosteten Bielle Rhums. Dennoch ein leckerer Tropfen.
