The run has the same barrel number as the Savanna Reunion The Wild Island Edition - Grand étang sec 2006 (RX11969). According to the label, they both came into the barrel on the same day. At first they come across as quite different, but after a while in the glass they become somewhat alike. Nevertheless, the Grand étang sec is slightly better.

Nez : du grand arôme comme on l’aime/ananas/banane/fumé … c’est intense et solvanté à souhait Bouche : fumé/olive verte/fraise tagada Finale : longue/épicée/amer Je trouve cela bon, mais pas ouf. J’ai déjà gouté des Grands Arômes de Savanna meilleurs et sans le ramdam de ce Piton des neiges. Bien heureux d’avoir pu le gouter lors de cette Master Class, car je n’aurai jamais eu l’occasion de le gouter autrement. Merciiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
