How does this rum taste?
The Wild Series Rum No. 52 Reunion is crafted at Reunion's Savanna distillery and bottled by Romdeluxe. Distilled from molasses using a pot still and aged for two years, this limited release showcases an intense 71.2% ABV at cask strength. Users note distinctive aromas of rubber and solvents with youthful woody undertones. On the palate, it's a powerful mix of solvents, alcohol, and fruity overtones, delivering a raw and intense experience that's both unique and confrontational, and even perplexing for some due to its experimental nature. The rum's intimidating complexity and high ester content challenge enthusiasts and reflects a notable potential for rum aficionados.

Once again a unique exotic from RDL, which is difficult to evaluate as there are no comparisons. The rum is extremely powerful and young. The sherry cask is hardly noticeable, if at all in the finish. Otherwise, the strong, present savanna molasses note is there, slightly musty. The alcohol is brutal and takes away the lightness of the rum, otherwise I would have given it a higher rating.
8,1:On the nose, the first impression we get is very strong with medicinal notes like esters, glue, solvents, overripe tropical fruits and olive, brine. On aeration, roasted wood notes like caramel, nuts and pastry, arise, slightly spicy, citrus fruits with orange and berries with strawberry, perhaps some melon.Even rotten, pungent feeling joins interplay with yoghurt note.The molasses is flowery and grassy. 8,4:On the palate, the attack is intense, pungent with rotten, overripe tropical fruits and strawberry, esters, glue and rubber, then olive and wood spice, slightly astringent. After really resting the rum, the notes balance themselves, slightly smoky wood with confectionery pairs tasty fruit notes like peaches, berries and citrus and grassy, flowery and herbaceous molasses, a bit mineral. 7,9:The finish is medium long with medicinal tones and rotten fruits, vegetal and grassy molasses, smoky, burnt and spicy wood...
#4776 11.07. 2024 Relaxing evening with some nice liquids 😊 Nose Intense, fresh, light wood, fruits, light rubber, light glue, berries. Palate Intense, light wood, faint smoke, fruits, berries, light glue, faint rubber, balanced, faint peach. Finish Long, medium spicy, wood, light roasted, fruits, light peach. The empty glass has light chocolate, faint cobacco and caramel notes. Needs a good while in the glass to settle and release all its wonderful flavours.
Initially very restrained on the nose, but after a little time it opens up at least a little. Nevertheless (especially in comparison to the 2001 TDL tasted at the same time) still very restrained. On the palate, it's the expected plank from this series. While the first sip is mainly furry and alcoholic, there's a big... nothing? You can taste Savanna, but it has the intensity of HERR, Lontan and co, nor the balance of the more relaxed representatives. Expectations were high for the combination of Savanna and Wild Series, but unfortunately (based on the first impression) we have a rum that tries to be exciting with a high alcohol content.
