Loved by Jarek, Lot-NAS
For curious explorers ready for cask-driven agricole: an 8‑year Bielle at 55% with intense red-wine/fortified wine notes, dried fruit and spice. RumX members find it characterful but dominated by the finish and alcohol.

Wine-dominated, spicy Bielle experiment For curious explorers ready for cask-driven agricole: an 8‑year Bielle at 55% with intense red-wine/fortified wine notes, dried fruit and spice. RumX members find it characterful but dominated by the finish and alcohol.
Agricole fans who enjoy bold wine finishes, dried-fruit and tannic spice at higher ABV and like comparing experimental casks to more classic Bielle bottlings.
Newcomers, those sensitive to 55% ABV, and purists wanting clean, fresh cane notes rather than a dominant red/fortified wine cask profile.

Review by Jarek
Ja, Finish könnte weniger dominant und der Alkohol besser eingebunden sein. Trotzdem süffig und irgendwie doch lecker. Zu dem Preis für einen halben Liter müsste ich keine Flasche haben, aber die 10 cl werde ich gerne leeren (danke an Jörg). Eine Flasche vom Bielle Excellence Rhum RX16296 ist gerade unterwegs, da bin ich auf einen Vergleich schon sehr gespannt.
Review by Buddudharma
Dieses Experiment ist gründlich schiefgegangen. Das Finish überdeckt den Rum komplett, zudem kommen im Abgang eine unangenehme, schwefelige Note sowie eine eigenartige Trockenheit dazu. Alkoholintegration auch nur mäßig. Da ist selbst ein 5 cl -Sample schon eine Herausforderung.
Review by Lot-NAS
The Cask killed the spirit. This could also be a Whisky with some intense finishing. Nevertheless I really liked it and for half the price I would get myself a bottle as easy companion for soon to come autumn evenings.
Review by zabo
So leid es mir tut, aber das war leider ein gewaltiger Schuss in den Ofen. Das Finish dominiert extrem und überlagert alles. Alkohol schlecht eingebunden. Trifft persönlich überhaupt nicht meinen Geschmack.
Review by Johannes
The wine barrel is so present that you can't make out the base fabric, unfortunately. I was actually looking forward to Bielle.... Nevertheless, a good rum!
Review by Master P
Riechen tut er wirklich gut, aber Geschmack passt nicht zur Nase. Weinfass kommt ordentlich durch und im Abgang zu alkoholisch, leicht brennend. Sample ist ok, aber flasche würde ich nicht kaufen.
