"Mika and Gaston went to the RVMG cellar to select two exceptional casks for the Facebook group: Passion Rhums Bielle, carefully pre-selected by Jérôme Thiery and Jacques Larrent. These choices perfectly embody the authenticity and expertise of the island."
Color: Light brown
Nose: Upon opening, a minty freshness blends with the sweetness of licorice and the richness of freshly cut cane. Subtle notes of marzipan and salted caramel enrich the bouquet, while aromas of ripe pineapple and candied orange zest add an exquisite fruity dimension.
Palate: The attack is round and warm, revealing a syrupy texture that envelops the palate. Exotic fruits, such as pineapple and ripe mango, harmonize with nuances of nuts and a rich oaky note, enhanced by delicately sweet licorice. The flavors evolve towards candied fruits and orange peel, offering remarkable depth and complexity.
Finish: Persistent and oily, the finish begins with notes of dark chocolate and continues with a hint of mint, leaving a lasting and refined impression.
Conclusion: This 2012 vintage embodies the excellence of Bielle's expertise, offering an unforgettable tasting experience that will appeal to rum enthusiasts looking for authentic and refined discoveries.
