"A particularly expressive and flavorful Savanna Grand Arôme. The nose offers beautiful fruity fragrances ranging from exotic fruits to red fruits, yellow fruits and dried fruits. The notes of the barrel are slightly perceptible, with a welcome touch of greediness to the profile, which is intense and fairly concentrated in aroma. Spicy and medicinal notes (esters, olive) battle for second place in the glass. One of Savanna's most intense profiles. The attack is very round, with good aromatic amplitude. Tropical and red fruit flavors are pronounced, very intense and greedy. The spices are particularly well developed (pepper, chili, ginger, salt) and combine with esters, olive, cognac, armagnac and a slight sweetness of caramel to create a very harmonious whole, with the alcohol superbly well integrated. The finish is long, still fruity with those medicinal notes around, but slightly drier, tannic and bitter, with more herbaceous notes, tea and leather. There's also a touch more caffeine and roast. A superb rum that masters its subject, as tasty as it is delicate, with an impressive aromatic palette."
