    How does this rum taste?

    Origine 1870 is a distinguished rum from the Savanna distillery in Reunion, boasting a 50% ABV. Known for its complex profile, it presents an aroma rich in floral, spicy, and candied fruit notes, reminiscent of freshly cut flowers and hay. The taste is elegantly balanced with spicy and floral nuances, complemented by a salty hint and a subtle touch of peaches. Although unexpectedly different from other Savanna rums, it offers a harmonious experience. Users recommend allowing it to breathe to fully appreciate its intricate flavors. While its price may be a drawback for some, its refined character and evolving palate make it a notable choice for rum enthusiasts.

    Another lovely Savanna which is here presented in a classy way and it deserves it, because it’s an extremely tasty dry and spicy rum, which after a while in the glass just tastes better and better 👍💪🏻

    Petite dégustation Savanna. Un nez chaud, sec et riche avec des herbes sèches, du caramel, des fruits confits et un côté pimenté, épicé qui lui donne un bel équilibre. Les arômes sont assez peu présents. La bouche monte en puissance très agréablement et dans l’équilibre avec des notes de rancio, de caramel, d’herbes sèches, d’épices et de pâtisseries. Mais je n’y trouve pas toute la complexité du nez. La finale est plutôt longue dans et tout à la fin reste une sorte de caramel amer, de bois et de rancio qui dominent tout. Où sont passés les fruits confits et la complexité promise par le nez ? Cela dit un rhum très bien réalisé et de très belle tenue. Regoûté face à de très beaux Savannas et il me semble un peu faible et trop boisé.

    Very elegant and delicate on the nose. Wood and backing spices accompanied by moderate esters from the GA components. Very good combination of (fresh) fruits and flowers. The blend is very well executed yet the nose is a bit more subtle versus today‘s Savanna line-up. On the palate the blend shows the same attributes: very elegant and balanced. Very enjoyable, yet not overly intense. Almost a tiny bit too „nice“ while of excellent quality.
