The Rasta Morris Bielle 2006-2019 is a 13-year-old agricultural rum from the Marie-Galante distillery, selected by Belgian bottler Asta Morris. This exceptional rum was column distilled in May 2006 and matured in a bourbon barrel until August 2019, before being transported to Europe for bottling in November of the same year. This limited edition rum, with only 56 bottles produced, is revered for its impressive aroma and taste. It features a waxed woodiness and tannins that melt into a long-lasting finish. The distinctive Bielle style is prominently displayed, offering a concentration of aromas that is both pleasing and commanding, without any harshness. Aeration reveals a complex world of yellow fruit jams, honeyed structure, elegant sweet spices, and a powerful yet harmonious woodiness. The palate is described as indulgent, with jam-covered woodiness, reminiscent of a rum baba with a golden, caramelized surface glistening with apricot jam. With its rich complexity, this rum opens up with enticing notes of caramel and licorice. Moments later, it unveils exotic fruits such as banana and passion fruit, amplified over its 13 years of aging with a persistent, delightful note of anise. The nose is so enchanting that one might hesitate to taste it for fear of being disappointed, yet the experience is just as rewarding. On the palate, it is dense and balanced, with perfectly integrated alcohol, exuding smooth and gentle flavors without any aggression. Upon opening the bottle, the grassy agricultural notes are immediately evident. As the rum rests, it develops layers of spices, wood, citrus, and honey. The palate maintains the grassy character, enriched with wood, fruit, and spices, followed by hints of chocolate. The finish is medium long, characterized by woody, spicy, and fruity notes.
