“I got this bottle on Friday and sitting here enjoying it on a Sunday :-) I have tried a few Savanna grand arômes and I mostly like them. This one however is really good. The glass needs to rest in order for all the flavours to be released. I got most flavours after 30 minutes where it really gets fruity and you can pick up on the wood. I like the spicy touch well balanced with the spices, varnish and some licorice. A great rum and the price to quality is very good.”

“WOW! I would not have expected that. there could be both from the taste and smell on a young Jamaican from Long Pond or new Yarmouth/Hampden type. Fat.brutal amount of tropical fruit and esters and caramel, plus some pastry, polish, salty and sweet at the same time, nice wood note almost towards sandalwood. then in the finish Savanna goes up again more with the typical fermented overripe strawberry. very awesome, want more of this! 🤤”
