The Bielle 2009 La Conferie Single Cask #107 is an exceptional 8-year-old rum from Guadeloupe, bottled at a robust 52.1% ABV. This rum is a product of the esteemed Bielle Distillery, which has a rich history dating back to the late 19th century. The distillery, situated on the site of a former coffee plantation in Grand Bourg, has been producing high-quality rums since 1910. Over time, the distillery has modernized and is now one of the two remaining distilleries on Marie Galante, known for its impressive production capacity and adherence to traditional methods.
This particular bottling is part of the "Confrerie du Rhum" series, drawn from cask #107. With only 252 bottles in existence, it is a rare gem that appeals to both collectors and connoisseurs. The rum is characterized by its amber hue and a nose that opens with a strong and fresh scent of grass and freshly picked herbs. You can also detect the aromas of a freshly polished leather chair in an old library with lingering cigarette smoke, alongside notes of leather conditioner, ginger, wet wood, and cough syrup, finished with hints of citrus and floral aromas.
On the palate, this rum reveals a velvety smooth texture with a rich, full-bodied flavor. The initial taste is dominated by caramel and tobacco, evolving into a more complex profile with spicy nuances, roasted nuts, and caramelized fruits. As it develops, you'll experience a symphony of dark fruits, spices, and resinous notes. The finish is medium to long, offering a lasting impression of exotic fruits and a subtle hint of solvent, adding to the complexity.
Overall, the Bielle 2009 La Conferie Single Cask #107 is a true testament to the craftsmanship and expertise of the Bielle Distillery. Recognized for its high-quality rums, including its iconic white rum at 59%, Bielle also offers excellent aged rums and house-made liqueurs, such as their famed shrubb.
