A vieux agricole from Bielle on Marie-Galante, drawn off the cask in 2022 after four years in ex-bourbon barrels, a fresh cane juice rum bottled at an easy 42%.
Description
Bielle is a Marie-Galante distillery known for cane-variety work and high-proof blancs, distilling from fresh-pressed sugar cane juice. This Soutire en 2022 is a 2018 vintage aged four years in ex-bourbon casks, sitting under Guadeloupe's IGP rather than the Martinique AOC.
Bottled at 42% with no recorded sweetening expected for an aged Bielle agricole, it sits in the dry, soft-strength end of the aged cane-juice tradition. Brisk tropical maturation means a young vintage like this typically shows more oak than its years suggest, with a grassy core, honeyed wood and gentle baking spice. An approachable, characterful Marie-Galante pour.
