The wine

A rhum agricole selected by La Maison du Whisky, distilled in 2001 at the Bielle de Marie-Galante distillery and aged for 15 years in ex-bourbon casks. A blend of eight casks, producing 655 bottles at 45%. The label, which is in the shape of the island, makes reference to the transport of sugarcane, for which ox-wagons continue to be used.

The distillery Bielle

Bielle is a very old rum distillery named after the Bielle family who founded it in the late 1760s—1769 to be precise. It was created on the site of a former sugar refinery located on the small Caribbean island of Marie-Galante, also known as the “island with a hundred windmills”. Located at around 100 metres above sea level, the distillery originally employed some thirty farmers. Since then, respect developed for the tradition of producing rhum agricole. The rums are produced using pure cane juice and methods that respect the environment. The sunny Caribbean climate ensures a high concentration of cane sugar and high-quality maturation. White, aged and amber rums are also produced here, as well as various liqueurs.
