Aged a proud 18 years (14 of them tropical), in cognac and TDL barrels, and I imagine you can tell by the nose. Less the strawberry and bourbon vanilla notes (as with the CdI Savanna 2007/12 bottled for Germany), rather grape / raisin,wood and leather. In the background a slightly minty freshness. On the palate vanilla, bacon, pipe tobacco, transitioning to toasted fiber and a slightly dirty menthol note. Certainly not everyone's cup of tea, but for me it fits together well.

Die Nase empfinde ich relativ verhalten, dafür ist der Gaumen recht kräftig und eher auf der würzig, holzigen Seite, etwas frisches und gedörrtes rotes Obst ist auch dabei! Im Abgang ist viel Menthol und etwas Frucht, Nicht überragend aber gut 👍🏻

14 ans en Cognac en climat tropical et 4 ans en ex TDL dans le Jura. Immense Savanidad 😉

Mein erster wirklich alter Savanna. Geruchsprofil ist eindeutig zuzuordnen, mit deutlichem Fasseinfluss. War sehr auf den Geschmack gespannt, aber die hohen Erwartungen führen zu leichter Enttäuschung. Kaum Frucht am Gaumen, Fass und Bittere dominieren. Verglichen mit den Aromabomben, die ich sonst an Savanna so liebe sehr zurückhaltender Rum. Fazit: Savanna gefällt mir etwas frischer deutlich besser. Dennoch ein gut trinkbarer Rum.

Wohl einer der ältesten Savannas bis dato und das schmeckt man auch. Dennoch ein sehr schönes Aromenprofil aus Holz, Leder, Meersalz und Dunkler Schokolade, Minze Cassis und diversen getrockneten tropischen Früchten, sowie Menthol und Estern. Die Nase ist recht verhalten und auch geschmacklich könnte alles eine Spur intensiver und weniger "versteckt" sein. Dennoch ein guter alter Savanna, für ein ausgezeichnet fehlt es ihm aber an Intensität und Komplexität.

Nez pas très aguicheur mais la bouche est surprenante et très agréable. J'ai jusqu'à présent rarement eu l'occasion de goûter cette palette aromatique

Un côté boisé qui annihile en rien les fruits derrière.. Très bon produit en somme

C'est bon! Bel équilibre entre le côté boisé et fruité, c'est bien fait mais manque de complexité. On retrouve la touche TDL sur le côté fruits rouges/cassis en finale. Le nez est simple et une petite déception

Beau produit avec un nez épicé, réglisse surtout mais aussi cerise aigre et raisins secs En bouche on retrouve ce côté réglisse et mentholée et poivré. Fin de bouche astringeante et piquante.
