    The Small Batch Rare Rums by Rum Nation originates from Savanna Distillery, Reunion, distilled in 2006 from molasses, and aged over 15 years. Bottled at cask strength with an ABV of 57.6%, this limited release of 1278 bottles highlights a woody aroma complemented by notes of dried fruit, roasted tones, red fruits, and caramel. Users describe a complex palate where woody and spicy elements dominate, mirrored by ester and sherry undertones. While the sherry finish offers depth, it's not overpowering.

    "Very pleasant, but with little tasting depth due to a light aromatic bouquet. From a Rum Nation I would have expected more. Overall it is not bad at all, it is good drinking, but it lacks that leap to be interesting for a tasting of a certain level. Woody notes, esters, spice in a light way and a medium lasting finish of woody notes and then lychee/grape. The three years of finishing in Sherry Oloroso cask did not give much to the rum."

    "A very nice release though the cask has added a lot of sherry flavours to the final result. Fruity with nice and warm/spicy palate and some nice roasted wood. Draws really nice curtains in the glass and the empty glas has nice flavours as well."

    "Super Delicious Savanna! The sherry finish has a cool impact on this one and isn’t overwhelming. Only the finish is a bit astrigend at the beginning. The Alcohol is not perfectly integrated, but doesn’t affect the enjoyment"

    "Edit: Tried again as a blender. It is definitely unsuitable for this. Corrected downwards. Nice savanna, but unfortunately quite entertaining in my opinion. I would rather put it in the easy sipper category. But still quite tasty."
