Velier Bielle Rhum Rhum Vittorio Capovilla 2007
"Something different" is how one first-timer put it, and that fits. This 2007 Bielle cane-juice rhum from Velier is heavy and woody, with grass, tobacco, black tea and a bit of dark chocolate. Several tasters love its oily, complex nose. The recurring catch: a bitter black-tea note on the finish that a few felt was too dominant.

Aggregated from 23 community reviews.
Heavy, woody agricole with a bitter tea finish Loved for its rich, oily nose and grassy-woody complexity at full strength. Nearly everyone flags the same flaw: a bitter black-tea finish that divides opinion.

Review by Nicolas Kröger
The rum cannot contain all its strength. 1-2 years of additional maturation in a mild climate and it would be perfect. Great!

My reference in the Rhum Rhum Liberation series!
Review by Santo
I found this Bielle truly atypical and exceptional!
Review by GigiMartini
Premetto che il mio assaggio arriva da un sample riempito a metà, per 2cl. L'ho conservato 5 anni prima di berlo... sicuramente richiede un po' di ossigenazione nel bicchiere. Il naso è la parte migliore di questo rum, è molto ricco di sfumature. Si evolve a lungo nel bicchiere, è particolarmente oleoso e denso. Al palato è più trattenuto, in confronto. È molto concentrato e masticabile. Solo sul finale emerge un po' una nota amara di the nero che mi fa abbassare un po' il voto. Niente di esagerato, ma dopo un'ora di degustazione si avverte. È molto più fruttato (albicocca e arancia) di quanto credessi. Molto tabacco, specie a bicchiere vuoto. Nel complesso mostra un ottimo equilibrio, comunque, che rende la degustazione un'esperienza molto piacevole. Ho annusato a lungo il bicchiere vuoto, davvero fantastico
Review by Aussierumfan
This is something different, for me anyway! It's my first try of a rum from Bielle and it's quite different from something molasses based. Quite herbal, grassy, and a lot of spice. It's quite complex, I can taste some wood as well. It's got a slightly bitter strange side taste, not 'off' just different to what I am used to. Quite a rare rum, more for collecting these days I suspect😄
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
This is another very rare bottle and the content only has one flaw, the bitterness and black tea is far too dominant basically destroying what could be a truly perfect rum. A few drops of water can't smooth out the dominance.
Review by Filip Šikula
Already in the aroma for me is very dominant wood, roots and a little earthiness. On the palate there is grass, tobacco, black tea with wood in the background. Perfectly to the integrated alcohol with a more than pleasant finish. The overall finish is spoiled by an over the top bitterness.
Review by Pavel Spacek
Strong, full of flavors, fully integrated. Taste like oldie style longly matured in the cask. Definitely not 10yo
