    How does this rum taste?

    The Réunion Rum (Bottled for Kirsch), produced by the Savanna distillery and bottled by Berry Bros & Rudd, offers a distinctive yet polarizing profile. Distilled in 2016 and aged for 7 years, this cask strength rum boasts an ABV of 65%. Users noted a prevalent red wine influence on both aroma and taste, characterized by undertones of oak, roasted notes, and a distinct alcoholic presence. While some appreciate its fruity character and uniqueness, others find the alcohol overpowering and the wine finish too dominant. A rare limited release with only 302 bottles, this rum presents a highly debated profile among enthusiasts.

    Popravdě nejsem fanoušek silných rumů, ale tenhle není špatný, i když alkohol je cítit…ve vůni jsem nejdřív cítil švestky a pak jsem si přečetl, že červené víno, dále dřevitost. Barva je velmi světlá, průhledná a lehce do červeno hnědá. V chuti cítím ovoce, dřevo a samozřejmě tóny z červeného vina. Savannu jsem ještě neochutnal, takže popravdě nevím, kolik chuti z ní zůstalo, ale podle ostatních hodnocení mi přijde, že vše přebilo červené víno. Po chvíli odležení ve sklenici opravdu hlavní chuť dominuje červené víno - jako by mělo 50-60% a nebyl to rum. Závěr za mě je poměrně dlouhý - chuť rumu je ještě dlouho cítit na patře..

    Haha, ich glaube ich muss noch viel lernen was Rum angeht. Finde diesen hier allerdings sehr lecker. Man hat einen schönen fruchtigen Rotweingeruch in der Nase und ich finde im Gaumen kommt dann noch Kirscje dazu. Den Alkohol schmeckt man kaum. Ich mag ihn.

    Doftar lite nafta. Smak oljig lite fet. Röda bär

    Für mich schmeckt es wie ein Rotwein mit sehr viel Alkoholgehalt. Hätte mir hier mehr erhofft. Auch im Abgang sehr alkoholhaltig. In der Nase sind einige Noten von tropischen Früchten zu erkennen. Abgang eher langanhaltend
