Savanna Rhum Traditionnel Le Must

Thanks to the RumX Team for this great opportunity!! Unfortunately, I missed the only tasting due a delayed flight… This one took the third place in my tasting, very fruity, with some nice notes of furniture waxes, bitter orange and honey. A really nice daily driver, without looling on the price tag!

RumX Savanna Masterclass 12.7. Even today, the le must makes a very round impression, a light sipping rum that would benefit from a little less water. This leaves us with a very good impression and the hope of a somewhat stronger version in the future First tasting: Great, slightly medicinal nose, very roundly blended and correspondingly nice to drink

Finally found some time to taste it again. Once again, a big thank you to the RumX team for the great masterclass, during which I had to say goodbye after a few minutes. As for the rum itself, a nice easy sipper that would have benefited from a few more turns.

A bit sad that they watered it so far down because some of the flavors are really light. Would have preferred a higher ABV for more powerful flavours. Fruity with floral notes and roasted wood but a bit too light.

Savanna Masterclass for RumX 2024. The nose is vegetal, with dried fruit, lemon and vanilla. There's a hint of dilution on the first palate, then roast, dried fruit, lemon and fruit arrive with a hint of spice. The finish is rather short, but surprisingly long for dilution. There's a roasted note with fruit and citrus and a light woodiness. A very fine finish for a rum that is, alas, too diluted, but nonetheless very well made, easy to drink and well balanced.

Savanna Masterclass for RumX July 2024: Still pleasantly fresh on the nose, a little too tart on the palate, the fruitiness fades somewhat. An appealing rum that is not lacking in charm, but which does not completely win me over due to the somewhat tart aromas on the palate.

Tasting 19/4-24 Peters vin. Nose: Some different flowery notes, caramel, a little spicies. Tast: A light rum, some Spice, little grassy notes, little smoke. The abv should have been higher. Finish: some light smoke, bitternes and pepper.

Tasted at the 11th GRF in the Savanna Tasting: a newcomer to the Savanna world, nothing more... Update in the RumX-Masterclass: Beautiful blend that delivers the typical Savanna characteristics. Blend of Traditional and Grand Arome

Re-tasting the Savanna Masterclass we missed ... Immediately worlds better than the Métis. Spicy, mature, caramelly, full-bodied. You can drink it on its own, but I still think of it more as a mixer.

Nummer zwei im RumX Tasting und auch für mich die zweite Verkostung nach dem GRF. Während ich den weißen Metis wegen seines speziellen Profils sehr schätze ist dieser hier etwas sehr unscheinbar - trotz eines Anteils an Grande Arome. Der Rum ist zweifellos gut gemacht, aber ich wüsste nicht, was ich mit ihm anfangen soll. Pur ist er mir zu simpel und dafür zu holzig, gemixt ist er zu teuer.

Great entry-level savanna with a nice combination of rusty notes (coffee, toffee, ...) and fruity associations. The Grand Arôme component brings a nice complexity to the blend. Pleasant drinking strength.

8: On the nose, the first impression is of a small fruit salad in syrup. At first, pear, mango and cherry are quite fresh and pale, protecting themselves in the shade of a small film of crunchy sugar. With aeration, the lightness and freshness are retained, but the fruit is enveloped in a toasty woodiness, itself covered by a thin layer of sweet-spiced honey. This light patina tempers the toasty character of the oak, preserving the delicacy of the fruit.The second nose is nicer-8,5. 9:The mouth is more complex than we could have imagined, and shows several facets in fractions of a second. Let's try slow motion to see what happens. First, the toasty woodiness sends up a small cloud of sweet spices, which come to rest on a bed of roasted, caramelized pecans. Then, the fruit salad encountered on the nose is baked, the fruit becomes stronger, more tropical, more caramelized, its pits resurfacing.Light smokiness arises. 8:The finish is both roasted and pastry-like, with pits and red fruit tannins, followed by a layer of ripe exotic fruit that maintains the length...

Really nice nose of ripe apples, tropical fruits and intense spices and gingerbread. Quite promising. A little too woody and herbaceous on the palate for me personally and also too thin at the same time. On the finish, there are slightly salty notes together with apple chips and tannins from the oak barrel. A few % more alcohol would certainly have helped to intensify the aromas here. Not quite to my taste. But it's definitely an easy sipping rum.

"A must-have! To sum up, my tasting notes: Nose: Woody, Fruity, Vanilla, probably a little gingerbread, why not a little pear. On the palate: Woody, Vanilla, Orange zest, Fruity. The finish is more towards: cask, oak, chocolate, cognac of course". > It's now arrived at home!

Easy sipper aber insgesamt zu wenig spannend. In der Nase habe ich hier wieder diese Agave-Tequila Noten, die alles übertönen. Der Geschmack nimmt einem dann mit auf einen Waldspaziergang: Tannennadeln, Harz, Erde. Abgang passt mir nicht so.
