“This rum is really interesting, but I'm not sure how to rate it yet, never had such a flavor in the glass. It is a mixture of initially pure nail polish remover (ester galore), but without a fruity component, and then later wet wood, the Virgin Oak has done a great job. A crass stuff, it seems somehow "sick" to me, in the sense of absolutely wacky, extreme. Anyone who blindly tastes a Savanna out here can only be congratulated. Let's see what the others say, who get these days samples from me. 😉 Update 2023-08-04: At the 2nd tasting, unfortunately, completely failed. The co-tasting whisky drinker (advanced) just said "manure!" - and I have to agree with him now, unfortunately. 😳 Too bad, with this experimental rum I could not pull him from the whisky to the rum side. But I'm still waiting for the reviews of those who got a sample (at a fortunately bearable price) of this (failed?) experiment. I'm curious!”

“I‘m sitting like the meme of John Travolta and looking for the Savanna GA flavours… Double Checking the label doesn‘t help🫣 The nose is OK, but what‘s going on the palate is just disgusting. The finish last long with a bitter taste of sour cherries 🤣Some extra points, because I like sour cherries 😁 BTW My GF ask, what‘s smells like compost in here 🤦🏻‍♂️”

“Für mich eine Mischung aus Grand Arome und Herr. Viel Gummibärchen, Ester, Erdbeere, wenig Holz, vielleicht etwas bissig, etwas Plastik.”
