Bielle Brut de Fût 2012
"Good and balanced, but not exceptional" is how one member sums it up, and that's fair. This 6-year Bielle from Marie-Galante gives you fresh cane grass and oak up front, then honey, vanilla, apricot and a little chocolate. Several tasters love it; a couple find it slightly flat and linear, with the cask-strength alcohol not always fully tucked in.
The community says- Cane and vanilla
- Balanced profile
- But: Slightly linear

How does Bielle Brut de Fût 2012 taste?
Summarized by AI from 34 community reviews.
Grassy, vanilla-led agricole with real oak Most find it a well-made, gourmand agricole with cane, vanilla and dried fruit. The recurring gripe: a bit linear, and at 54.6% the alcohol occasionally sits above the flavors.

Most helpful positive review
To start off, this is a very good Agricoles of you look at the price tag and quality. The nose starts off hard with grass and oak and then you get sweet honey notes mixed with fruit and a pinch of vanilla. A typical Agricole range of flavours. The palate continues where the nose left off. Lightly sweet honey with grass and oak, this is followed by fruits, vanilla and chocolate. A complex and well balanced rum. The finish is medium long with smoky oak, vanilla and raisin.

Lacks balance. Alcohol very present/aromas.
Review by Timo Groeger
Wow, this one is really good. On the nose we have a nice mix of wood and spices (lots of vanilla). On the palate also woody and spicy, especially vanilla and caramel stand out. You hardly feel the alcohol.
Review by TheJackDrop
At the risk of sounding heretical... it's very good for a 6-year-old agricole, but it's a bit flat... Vanilla, dried fruits, quince, wood, maybe a bit of milk chocolate... the fresh cane revives the flame a bit in the middle of the mouth. I think I expected a bit more anyway. Medium-long finish.

Good bottle, apricot and woody on the palate!
Review by Arnaud Faverjon
Très joli rhum, un vrai moment de plaisir, à ce un profile très « Bielle », qui est un gage de qualité !
Review by John Coffey
More vegetal but alcohol less integrated.
Review by Simon Leroux
Pleasant rum but quite linear, not surprising enough.
