“Pronounced funky nose with lots of red berries and vegetal aromas. This image continues on the palate. Very powerful and intense. Alcohol could be a little better integrated. Also makes a super daiquiri”

“This one was a retaste and I stick to my score from the first run. ------------- A nice rum from Habitation, not up to the others I tried in this batch, but still OK. The nose is funky and fruity. There is also a slight sweetness with solvents, tar and wet tobacco. The palate is living up to the nose with funk and fruitiness. A rather intense palate with varnish and a floral note on top. The finish is long and warm with orange zest and a smoky touch.”

“The smell is full cannon red fruit, mixed with bubble gum and solvent, as well as, when freshly poured, olives. Taste-wise, the High Ester Rum Reunion skins you right out of your socks. Intense after a decent load of fermented fruit and varnish/medicine. In the finish, the fruits still remain Ewig. From the 62.5% one notices comparatively little. The price of 55€ (as of January 22) is definitely justified, considering how exceptional this Savanna tastes. A very HERRlicher rum.Edit: Abgefahren how many different flavors prevail on the palate and in the nose. Have this time still a touch of fried bacon in the nose, after all the fruit is gone.”

“A highly aromatic Savanna unaged in High Ester mode. The nose is concentrated and extremely fruity, with red fruit (strawberry, raspberry), ripe tropical fruit, apple, melon and tangy citrus. Medicinal notes combine with floral fragrances and the vegetal notes of aromatic herbs and olive to create a very fresh, fragrant nose. A very pleasant rum to smell. The attack on the palate is just as gripping, with strong red fruit notes (raspberry, strawberry), funky notes of esters, varnish, solvents and glue, and hints of olive, flowers and herbs that add a spicy edge to the juice. The alcohol is remarkably well integrated, without the slightest aggressiveness, even though this is a rum with character. The finish is long, sustained by velvety, ripe red fruit, phenolic, floral and herbaceous notes. Notes of pepper and leather tingle the aftertaste, with a sensation of warmth that's not unpleasant. A highly accomplished white rum that works wonders neat or in mixology.”

“Une véritable huile essentielle. Quand vous ouvrez la bouteille toute la pièce est envahie par les fruits rouges et noires, le chewing-gum, le bonbon arlequin.. une véritable bombe aromatique!! En bouche ça explose dans tout les sens et la finale est interminable sur le bonbon arlequin les fruits rouges et noires et l'olive!! Pas un rum de tout les jours certes mais assurément mon rum blanc préféré ❤”

“Tasted with the OB Herr57 bottling from 2020 (batch4). Both come directly from the artificial pineapple Tropifrutti and strawberry bubblegum universe. But this one is a tad fresher and preffriger on the nose with sour raspberry effervescence. A matter of taste. I think I like the OB a tad better.”

“Day 21 in the Christmas calendar. Blind!There's not many of such an aromatic profile...Nose: Fruit bomb. Fermented fruits like raspberry, strawberry, honeydew melon. Fruit vinegar! Very intense and artificial. Attractive and repulsive in equal measure, making it insanely interesting. I like this...Palate: one of the few rums where the palate follows the nose.... Sweet-bitter, fermented fruit, raspberry, strawberry. Very artificial, very intense, very exaggerated very interesting ...”

“Explosion of fruitiness on the nose that won’t take long to fill the entire room. Very dominant on red fruits primarily strawberry, raspberry and a little bit of cherry. Subtle woodiness from pineapple husks. The sugarcane is sweet, harsh and fresh, but eases into more palatable watermelon fructose. It’s all very cool and mentholated with a black licorice overtone. Tasting reveals the same fruits, but especially strawberry gets the spotlight. A deep dark sweetness engulfes the red fruits. Like the nose refreshing and rich in flowery and herbal notes. There’s breakfast black tea and olive brine, slightly salted. Finish is rich in red fruits, cooling and with the grand return of licorice. To me, this is the ultimate white rum.”
