How does this rum taste?
The Savanna "Créol" rum, distilled in 2005 using sugar cane juice and a column still, offers a unique experience with its vibrant agricole profile. Aged for 5 years on Réunion Island, this limited release of just 840 bottles provides a fresh and vegetal nose, with hints of apple and grass. On the palate, sweet notes of caramel and sugarcane blend with spicy and herbal undertones, creating an unusual yet engaging flavor profile. User reviews highlight its distinctive character, leaning towards fresh and vegetal notes over traditional Savanna aromas. Some find the 46% ABV does not fully unleash its potential, while others appreciate its complexity and affordability.

Geruch: Jung, frisch, zunächst fruchtig nach Apfel, dann pflanzlich. Zuckerrohr und fauliges Obst. Grasige Aromen dominieren, zudem Eukalyptus und Anis. Geschmack: Dezent süß im Mund, etwas Karamell und Zuckerrohr, dann immer würziger und nach Kräutern. Würzig beim Schlucken nach Pfeffer und Lakritze. Kräuter-Aromen rücken komplett in den Vordergrund.. Abgang: Mittellang und ein bisschen eigenartig. Würzig, scharf, alkoholisch und medizinisch. Trocken mit zu lange gezogenem bitterem Kräutersud im Nachgeschmack. Fazit: Wieder ein Rum, bei dem der Jahrgang (Millésime) von dem Datum abweicht,
#4214 This one is really well priced compared to what you get. Nice and fruity with wonderful Agricole notes with some added light wood and spices. The profile is light and I would have loved a higher ABV. Draws nice curtains and the empty glass has some medicinal and vegetal notes.
A nice Agricole from savanna, with a profile all their own, this isn't the West Indies. It's more vegetal and the cognac breeding adds a lot of sweetness. It's really not bad, but it's not the type of agricole I prefer. Basically, Savanna isn't what I'd go for.
Ein eher untypischer Savanna mit einem Aromenspiel aus jungem Holz, Oliven, grünem Apfel, Gras, Heu... Agricole halt. Aber ohne die von mir geschötzten Savanna Aromen. Agricole, grüner Apfel, Oliven mit einwm.gewiasen medizinischen Touch. Ich werde nicht warm mit diesem Savanna. Danke für das Sample @Rod
