Aroma visualization from community tastings
La Compagnie du Rhum Bielle Rhum Vieux Agricole 2008
A quiet favorite that flew under the radar — members who found this Bielle rate it highly and wish more people had. Coconut milk and vanilla lead, then it opens into stewed apple, orange peel and a fresh, almost minty lift, with salted caramel underneath. At 54.3% it bites straight from the bottle; give it time to rest and the flavors settle in balance.
The community says- Well balanced
- Coconut & vanilla
- Hot when fresh

Review by MJ97
Au nez, les marqueurs bielle ultra présents, ressemblant au 2008 mais avec de l’alcool (est-ce le millésime qui me biaise?). En bouche, l’écorce d’orange, avec les épices et le fond boisé, tout en rondeur (frangipane, pâtissier). La finale reste longtemps, c’est délicieux.
Review by Gaston NP
Une magnifique découverte, une gourmandise énorme. Un très agréable moment.
Review by Léo Delek
Au nez je retrouve les rhums de la Barbade avec la coco bien laiteuse et de la vanille. En s'ouvrant, ça se complexifie, je retrouve de la pomme liane et de la compote de pomme chaude. Au gout je retrouve la trame classique de bielle. On a également des notes fraîches presque mentholées, de la coco qui revient, du caramel beurre salé Une petite merveille

Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
First off, here you get a lot for your money. Secondly, this one has to rest a while or the ABV will bite you. Once rested it has a lovely profile. Intense and well balanced and yet light in all the flavours. The empty glas was amazing after an hour.
