Bielle LMDW 2001
Most tasters land it high, with one small split: a few find it a touch too bitter and oaky for the spice and char to shine, while others call it one of the best casks in the Bielle 2001 run. Expect dried apricot, figs and prunes, dark chocolate and coffee, charred wood, and violet, with a long, warm finish. The 55.4% is well tucked in.
- Deep dried fruit
- Great ABV integration
- Long warm finish

How does Bielle LMDW 2001 taste?
Aggregated from 18 community reviews.
Dried fruit, charred oak, long warm finish Loved by most for its dried-fruit depth, charred wood and great alcohol integration. The only quibble: a couple of tasters found the bitter oak edge a bit much, especially on the finish.

Review by Thunderbird
Mal wieder ein klasse Bielle von LMDW, der allerdings nicht ganz die Güte bereits vorhandener Abfüllungen erreicht. Mir fehlt hier etwas die Tiefe und Komplexität. Das ist allerdings meckern auf hohem Level. Es bleibt ein hervorragender Rum
Review by LukaŽiga
9,2:On the nose, the first impression we get is very thick, balanced combination of woody and fruity notes as dried dates, figs, raisins, the wood is charred with leather, caramel, nuts, spices.A sugarcane is syrupy, dark with black tea, licorice, tobacco and some mint.We certainly notice red fruits from red wine notes.. On aeration, citrus is out, some flowery notes, chocolate and coffee, as bourbon ageing notes are stronger.It comes very balanced and round. 9:On the palate, the attack is delicious with charred wood notes like caramel, chocolate, coffee, nuts, later toffee and different fruits like dried apricots, prunes, raisins, figs.The sugarcane is syrupy and spicy with tobacco, flowery violet. The combination of bourbon, red wine, sauternes ageing is attacking our tasting buds from all angles. We are enjoying very balanced and round rum with juicy peaches, red fruits, berries etc. 9:The finish is very long, tasty as sugarcane is a bit waxy, earthy, still thick with black tea, flowery notes, the wood still charred, spicy.The fruits are red, citrus and dried.
Review by SaibotZtar
Ölig und schwer kommt er daher 😄. Sehe dunkle Farbe . Zuerst sollte Rum viel Zeit im Glas bekommen denn er braucht schon einiges an Zeit um sich zu öffnen und die Anfangs bissige Nase etwas zu zügeln. Nase Sehr Florale noten . Viel Trockenobst/ Steinobst . Dunkle Schokolade. Ordentlich Holz Malz gebrannten Zucker und Karamell. Gaumen Dickflüssig... Alkohol immernoch präsent. Hier auch Steinobst , Tannine , Schokolade und viele Florale notes . Leichte Karamellnoten . Abgang relativ trocken und bitter ...

Review by Mentalo
Sehr schöner Bielle mit Trockenfrüchten (Aprikose), Gewürzen, Lakritze, Veilchen und im Vergleich zur ebenfalls sehr gute Rasta Morris Abfüllung bringt er noch eine leicht bittere Holznote mit. Vor allem im Abgang. Auch relativ wenig Süße.
Review by Skyfly
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! Dieser hat eine etwas würzigere Gesamtnote. Alkohol wirklich perfekt eingebracht!
Review by Émile Shevek
Ha un colore bello scuro e lucente, al naso è profondo e caloroso con barile, leggera pelle/arrostito, una fine nota di tabacco, poi oli essenziali di agrumi e una nota dolce di frutti secchi e caramellata. Al palato è corposo e appiccicoso con note calde di barile, arrostito, un po' di stagionati, avvolti da una dolcezza densa che si alterna al lato secco/asciutto e leggermente tannico, con frutta secca, fiorito e di nuovo il tabacco sul finale medio-lungo. Il tutto molto rotondo ed equilibrato con un abv eccellentemente integrato. Nel bicchiere vuoto legno di sauna e stagionati. Ho preferito il cask#4 53.1% che ho trovato più complesso e profondo, son curioso di provare anche il cask#63. Grazie a SaibotZtar per lo split! Oscilla tra 9 e 9.1 a seconda dello stato della bocca.
Review by Banana Joe
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.
Review by Martin Švojgr
I could drink this all the time. Beautiful chestnut colour, heavy fruit notes in the aroma, wood slightly leathery. On the palate, the heavy fruit notes are joined by wine/cognac, tobacco, leather again, and towards the end comes a serving of mint and black pepper that lingers very long on the palate. Why do I only have a sample? 🥲
Review by Buddudharma
Danke an Daniel für diesen tollen Split. Für mich eines der besten Fässer, hier ist wirklich alles in hervorragender Balance vorhanden, bei toller Alkoholintegration.
