    How does this rum taste?

    The Créol Rum from the Savanna distillery in Reunion Island is an aged agricole rum, distilled in 2007 from sugar cane juice and aged for nine years. This limited release of only 730 bottles features a complex aroma of apple, pear, wood, and dried apricot, with a delicate hint of cognac. On the palate, flavors of pear, dried apricot, and earthy agricole are pronounced, complemented by spicy and woody notes. Although some users note a dry and slightly sharp finish, the overall profile is balanced and intricate, with subtle sweet and smoky undertones. It's appreciated for its depth and the interplay of fruity and woody elements.

    30.11.2019 A great afternoon and evening with friends, good food and of course, rum. Notes Medium dark in colour. Nose Lightly sweet, light wood, fruity, citrus, sugarcane, light citrus, grass. Palate Light wood, grass, citrus, lightly sweet, Agricole, faint strawberry, light earthy, medium dry. Finish Medium long, light wood, light strawberry, pear, faint caramel, vegetal, medium dry.

    Excellent Savanna Creol. I particularly like the apple notes. A really nice daily sipper. Only the finish leaves a little to be desired.

    A very pleasant rum on the nose, very intense on the palate, perhaps even a bit too much. Improves roundness with water

    somewhat alcoholic pungent, discreetly soapy on the nose, rather reminiscent of cognac, smoky, some cinnamon, apricot and pear and extremely woody on the nose.Taste also very woody and similar to Cognac, mainly pear, even more wood and tannins, in addition very astringent and alcoholic not particularly round but rather sharp-edged, something salty soapy and reminiscent of fruit bread in the finish and overall just unfortunately for my taste much too dry, woody and too little Savanna DNA. blind I would have said 80% Cognac Mixed with 20% Savanna.🙈
