    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members praise the burst of red fruits—strawberry and cherry—backed by vanilla, wood and a peppery warmth. The Port finish adds a vinous chocolate edge that many find deep and balanced, with leather and light licorice peeking through. Often enjoyed neat and benefits from some air. A popular 13-year Savanna release (77 reviews) with 55.2% ABV and only 1,070 bottles, it’s a confident pick for fruit-forward rum fans.

    Relatively dry savanna. Chocolatey-vanilla on the palate with cherries.

    Together with DomM we tasted a few Savanna today. Many thanks to Johannes for the samples. The biggest disappointments were the RX232 and the RX11264. My personal favorite was the RX9608. The RX11034 and the RX11515 just made it over the 8 points.

    I definitely expected more here, rather disappointing. It's delicious, drinks absolutely well, but the cognac and port cask have simply gained the upper hand and the pineapple, violet, strawberry and generally fruity notes have almost no chance of coming through... Good thing I only took a sample! Unfortunately the weakest chai humide overall... The relatively low alcohol content is also a disappointing factor here. Not a bad rum but absolutely no chance compared to Chai humide 8y and 10y or the Savanna Madras!

    Rote Früchte in der Nase, vor allem Erdbeere und Kirsche, dazu Vanille, feines Holz und pfeffrige Wärme. Am Gaumen dunkle Schokolade mit vinösem Unterton aus dem Port Finish, der Tiefe und Spannung bringt. Sauber strukturiert, guter Zug, mittellanger Abgang mit würzigen Akzenten und roter Frucht.
