“An unexpected release from Savanna, this rum offers a skilful blend between floral influences on the one hand (geranium, perfume, flowers) and more muscular spicy aromas (cinnamon, pepper). The fruitiness only comes later, at the same time as the port cask's roundness. A very enticing olfactory profile. If the nose was rather homogeneous, the attack on the palate is more unbalanced and lively, notably on the toasted woody side, but above all on the spices, which dominate here. The spicy notes go hand in hand with the roasted coffee to give a dark profile, strangely counterbalanced by fresher notes of agricultural greenery. The fruit is transparent, obliterated by the warmth of the spices and the agricultural freshness. The alcohol is fairly well integrated. The finish is persistent on wood, spices and roasted notes, but always with a vegetal background. Even if this isn't the best Savanna ever, it's a rum that offers an atypical, antinomian experience, and one that's sure not to leave fans indifferent.”

“Savanna Masterclass for RumX July 2024: Toller Rum, der schon beim Einschenken mit seiner aromatischen Dichte beeindruckt, aber mit etwas Zeit zum Atmen nochmal deutlich dazu gewinnt. Faszinierende floral-parfümierte Noten, Holz, vergorene Früchte, pflanzliche Aromen. Sehr gelungenes Release.”
