How does this rum taste?
Fruity-funky TH1 powerhouse
If you enjoy lively high-ester Savannas like other TH1 or HERR bottlings, this keeps the fruit bomb energy but is a bit tamer and more rounded, especially with a splash of water.
Those sensitive to high ABV, looking for soft sweet sippers or who dislike funky, fermented fruit and tannic, slightly drying finishes.

Savanna RumX Tasting 26.09.25: Dies CZ-Abfüllung gefällt mir recht gut..das Zusammenspiel von den Estern und Gewürzen passt hervorragend und ergibt eine schöne Funkiness. Einzig der Abgang ist relativ kurz
Für mich ein eher unspektakulärer Savanna, bei dem die typischen Marker wie Erdbeere, Ester und Tropische Früchte zwar vorhanden sind, der Gesamteindruck durch Scharfkantigkeit und übermäßigen Holzeinfluss im Gaumen jedoch keine erstklassige Bewertung zulässt.
Savanna Masterclass. Der nächste leckere Savanna, nix besonders herausragendes, aber trotzdem gut. Jedenfalls ist er am Gaumen sehr fruchtig, vor allem Erdbeere sticht hervor. Ansonsten leicht holzig und Ester ist auch erkennbar.
