Velier Bielle Rhum Rhum Libération Integrale 2012 2007
Near-universal love here, with only a couple of tasters calling it a touch tame or "curious" for their palate. Most people find a cane-juice agricole packed with dried apricot, peach iced tea, caramel, vanilla and roasted oak. Cask strength at nearly 60%, yet the alcohol reads remarkably integrated. Many add a few drops of water and say it opens up fruitier. One of the standout Libérations for fans.
The community says- Dried apricot, peach
- Long finish
- Integrated alcohol

Review by Mirco
Clear, powerful Agricole with a typical Rhum Rhum profile. On the nose, fresh sugarcane, herbs, citrus, and a bit of wood. On the palate, straightforward and intense with green cane, spice, a slight earthy note, and subtle vanilla. The nearly 60% ABV packs a punch but feels balanced. Overall, a young, well-made Libération Integrale, full of character and clean.
Review by Joachim Guger
Wonderful Agricole! Dried fruit, almond, lots of spices. Very complex, very well integrated alcohol, needs a few drops of water. I can still remember it being priced at 120€ in the specialist store on Stephansplatz in Vienna. I ended up buying the normal version for €80. I wish I had... Edit: I love dried apricots (+2 points).
Review by Giorgio Garotti
Grande capolavoro di Luca Gargano e Capovilla! Davvero straordinario! Un equilibrio perfetto dei sapori e un rispetto totale della canna da zucchero sia in distillazione sia nell’invecchiamento in botte!
Review by cigares
I was looking forward to tasting this rum, praised by many enthusiasts. A nose of blackened banana, wet wood, caramel and vanilla. A two-masted sailing ship en route to Europe with its cargo of bananas and caramel. The palate is grandiose, with an unimaginable depth of bitter orange, caramel, banana, wet wood and a very light saltiness that corroborates the idea of a two-masted sailing ship. The length is incredible, with all the aromas announcing themselves and then slowly diminishing. You want more. What a rum!
Review by Oliver
Excellent rhum rhum! Reminiscent of high-end peach iced tea. Complex, spicy and yet round.
Review by F.L.O.
Integrale tasting 2024: In direct comparison with the 2015, slightly more intense on the nose, with identical aromas. Seems more powerful. Then again a real bomb on the tongue. But the alcohol is more present than in the 2015. Nevertheless, perfectly integrated. Complaining at a high level. The finish feels longer than that of the 2015....gleichstand
Review by Benoit Mahe
A gourmand, powerful and complex Agricole. Surely the best Libération.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
This one is far better than its watered down counterpart. The ABV becomes it very well. Fruity and spicy with smoked oak and nuts.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Very cool complex bielle!
Review by Jakob Mmmmhhh
Wow. Cross of Agricole and light esters on a Barbados creme brulee bed. Nose is a 99, palate still very very good and brilliant, but the nose is my Olympus

Review by Émile Shevek
Caldo, avvolgende, corposo e speziato, un agricolo da uno stile sopraffino e complesso, frutto di un maestro come Capovilla che sforna un prodotto unico e irripetibile, berlo è come venire abbracciati -------------------------- Riassaggio: Premetto che la prima volta che ho assaggiato questo rhum è stato per me il primo overproof e il primo di alta qualità, quindi ero rimasto estremamente sorpreso dando un 9.5. Ora lo riassaggio dopo anni e al naso è sempre esplosivo e superlativo con legno umido, barile, spezie(noce moscata), zucchero bruciato, frutti tropicali(ananas) e non(pesca), frutta secca(datteri), pelle, solvente, vegetali, vaniglia, noccioline, cacao amaro. Inizialmente l'alcool è un po' invadente, ma dopo averlo lasciato respirare è assolutamente magnifico e complesso. Al palato è caldo, speziato, con frutti maturi e altri secchi, barile, mandorle, qualcosa di salato e fumoso/arrostito con agrumi e tabacco sul finale lunghissimo e persistente. Resta una perla profonda e complessa. Nel bicchiere vuoto legno, vegetali e maturati. Oscilla tra 9.2 e 9.1
Review by zabo
Wow, was für ein schöner geschmeidiger Rum. Erstmal ein dickes Dankeschön an Rumdog, dem ich ein Sample abschwatzen konnte. Für mich jetzt der beste Bielle den ich im Glas hatte. Schön komplex mit super integrierten Alkohol und einem schönen Abgang.
Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
Tasted against RX24702 from Distilia and RX862 from Velier. On the nose, I can't quite decide whether I prefer the drier Distilia or the fruitier Libération Integrale (the Vittoria Capovilla clearly only gets bronze here). The surprise on the palate: I actually like the Libération Integrale a little better than the, yes, more complex Distilia because of its natural sweetness like peach or apricot jam. Hmm, I guess I'm not just a farmer's palate after all, but also a sweet tooth ... 🫣 🤭
Review by Thunderbird
Teil 2 meiner Starter-Rums nach dem Dry January… und eine Steigerung… der 2012er Bielle ist, obwohl sie sich ziemlich ähneln, eine Spur weicher und komplexer…man könnte auch harmonischer sagen.. das ist einfach nur großartig
Review by LukaŽiga
9:On the nose, herbaceous sugarcane, roasted, spicy wood with caramel, pastry, nuts, cinnamon, nutmeg, fruits like dried apricots, coconut and citrus fruits, bump into our nosetrils. On aeration, barrel impact is strong with leather, chocolate, vanilla, various fruits arise with mango, peaches, apricots and the cane becomes earthy with tobacco, slightly flowery. 9,1:On the palate, the attack is delicious, round and balanced with candied citrus fruits, maracuja and peaches, fresh, flowery and herbaceous sugar cane, as the wood is roasted with nuts, pastry, butterscotch, later cream toffee, leather, spicy with vanilla, salty, the oak becomes toasted, when the rum is oxidized, waxy, the fruits dried with raisins and apricots, some mango comes along, the cane becomes mineral, earthy with tobacco, still fresh with tea. 8,8:The finish is long, less round and complex, dry and tannic, more oaky, the cane is also grassy, the wood roasted, spicy and slightly smoky, the fruits tropical with toasted coconut, yellow and dried
Review by Tschusikowsky
Einladende, vielschichtige Nase mit satter Tiefe. Reife gelbe Früchte – insbesondere Apfel, Pflaume und ein Hauch Stachelbeere – verbinden sich mit würzigen Anklängen von Vanille, Tabak, Eiche und etwas Schokolade. Die Aromen wirken harmonisch verschmolzen, dicht und kraftvoll, ohne je aufdringlich zu werden. Im Gaumen: Cremig-seidig mit toller Textur. Der Rum legt sich weich auf die Zunge. Noten von Vanillepudding, dunkler Schokolade und reifem Obst. Die Süße ist perfekt eingebunden, der Alkohol tritt trotz Fassstärke erstaunlich sanft und balanciert auf. Eine feine Frische und leichte Spritzigkeit sorgen für Spannung im Mund. Abgang: Lang, wärmend und vielschichtig. Eichenholz, dunkle Würze und fruchtige Nuancen bleiben lange präsent. Fazit: Ein dichter, harmonischer Rum mit grosser Aromenkraft und seidiger Eleganz. Herrausragend.
Review by Johannes
Hervorragend! Komplex mit perfekt eingebunden Weinfass-Einfluss.
Review by Manuel
Very interesting and enjoyable bielle. For me, however, it's not quite enough for a perfect rating. The rum was a little too tame for that, both in smell and taste. But that's really complaining on a very high level.

What a slap in the face! I could eat it for hours, it's perfect.

Read full review →Just in case I was perhaps missing something obvious with this rhum. I don't think I have as it is a bit of a curious rhum, even for someone more experienced with Agricole Rhum. Certainly a rhum for the more adventurous drinker. Very, very good but maybe not to everyone's...
