The Rasta Morris Bielle Marie Galante 52% 700ml is a limited release rum produced by the independent bottler Asta Morris in collaboration with the renowned Bielle distillery, located on the authentic Caribbean island of Marie-Galante in Guadeloupe. This rum is crafted from sugar cane juice using a Column Still, resulting in an ABV of 52%. The rum’s amber hue is a natural result of being aged for a few months in large casks that previously contained bourbon, imparting a complex and rich flavor profile.
The aroma of the Rasta Morris Bielle is a harmonious blend of vanilla, fresh black pepper, and vegetal notes, creating a fragrant and enticing bouquet. Upon tasting, the rum reveals a well-rounded palate of woody, spicy, and nutty flavors, with underlying hints of fresh sugarcane and allspice. The finish is medium, striking a delicate balance between fruity and spicy notes, leaving a lasting impression of tropical fruit and pepper.
The previous batch of this distinctive rum was praised for its light and volatile character, evolving into a gently spicy woodiness with touches of pepper. With aeration, it transforms into a mellow and indulgent cane profile with notes reminiscent of mirabelle jam, showcasing the unique style of the Bielle distillery. With only 258 bottles available, the Rasta Morris Bielle Marie Galante is a coveted choice for fans of agricole rums, celebrated for its well-rounded, fresh, and complex profile.

The Rasta Morris Bielle Marie Galante is generally appreciated for its fruity-oily and vegetal notes on the nose, with a creamy and spicy-peppery palate that highlights the cane’s presence. While the finish is pleasant, it may not be overly complex for some. It has a smooth and easy-to-drink profile, making the 52% ABV deceptively mild. Though some reviewers find the alcohol a bit forward, others enjoy its balanced blend of fruits and spices, noting its fresh wood and grassy elements. Overall, it’s a lovely rum with a good balance of flavors, even if it might be considered simpler compared to more complex agricoles.
