    How does this rum taste?

    Rhum Vieux Traditionnel from Savanna Distillery, Reunion, is a 7-year-old molasses-based rum distilled using a column still and bottled at 43% ABV. It offers a captivating bouquet with intense woody, fruity, oak, vanilla, and brandy aromas. On the palate, notes of oak, tropical fruit, menthol, spices, and wood delight the senses. While some users praise its elegant blend and complexity, a few find it overly sharp and lacking depth. Its lengthy oak finish and hints of smokiness leave a lasting impression. Ideal for enthusiasts seeking a complex yet approachable Old-World style rum, Rhum Vieux from Reunion presents a harmonious blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern flair.

    Tasting on a campside in the south of French Nose: pretty classical balanced traditional Savannah. Agricolish. Yellow fruits. Mild wood. Cognac. Vanilla. Bit of glue. Good. Taste: starts great too. Honey sweetness. Dry. Sugarcane. Something floral, chamomille. And something I recognise but can't put my finger on. Still delicious. The 43% is perfect...but hey first dram of the day. Twas 35°C today. All in all a very likable rum from reunion. Complex enough to outshine most in this category.

    Rhum moyen avec un nez très marqué sur le produit solvant ou colle en bâton. Peu d’arôme mis tertiaires en bouche. Assez déçu pour un vieillissement de 7 ans.

    We had a great tasting today and here are the results.

    Eleganter Rum, 7 Jahre, aus la reunion, etwas holzig und würzig mit Trockenpflaume Note. Sehr langer komplexer Abgang mit einer leichten Rauch Note
