    How does this rum taste?

    The 74.8 - Excellence Rhum from Savanna distillery in Reunion is a unique offering from independent bottler Old Brothers. Made from molasses using a Savalle still, this unaged rum boasts a striking 74.8% ABV, despite which it drinks smoother than expected. Known for its limited release of just 428 bottles, it combines alluring aromas of sugarcane, ester, and floral with bold vegetal and olive flavor notes. Revered for its intense and full-bodied profile, the rum offers surprising sweet, briny, and even bacon-like nuances, captivating rum enthusiasts with its complex character and long finish. Its intense nature is balanced with both fresh and warm undertones, making it a rum not to be overlooked.

    Schmeckt wie ein Grand Arome. Große Klasse!

    nez: agréable, canne à sucre, végétal. acidulé (arlequin). bouche: saumure, sucre Roux.

    This one also needs to rest for a good while because it's really intense. Not as fruity but fresh with lovely floral/Agricole notes. Dry, warm and intense on the palate and a very long finish.

    Drinks well below the proof, but still an incredibly intense and full bodied rum. Heavy with olives, solvents, and brine but sweet as well.
