    How does this rum taste?

    Créol 52 is a limited edition rum from the Savanna distillery in Reunion, crafted from sugar cane juice and distilled using a column still. This 52% ABV rum is noted for its unique profile reflecting the terroir of Reunion, distinct from that of Antilles agricoles. Users highlight its fresh cane and olive aromas, complemented by smoky and citrus notes. The palate offers a blend of sugarcane, fresh minty hints, and tobacco undertones. While some praise its complexity and atypical nature, others find its salinity and medicinal qualities less appealing, making it a rum for adventurous palates. Overall, it maintains a fresh and distinct character that stands out among white rums.

    ❌️ Yo les alcoolos, Savanna - Créol 52 - 🇷🇪 - 52% Également un gros coup de cœur lors de mes années sur l'ile intense. Mon palais étant formé à l'agricole, ce pur jus me réconfortait à chaque fois que j'en avais marre du rhum traditionnel, plus répandu. Ce rhum de pur jus est fermenté 2 jours et ensuite distillé en colonne de cuivre. Malgré les similitudes de fabrication avec les agricoles des Antilles, on a un profil totalement différent du au terroir de la Reunion. On pourrait presque le qualifier de petite sœur du HERR 57 car certaines saveurs se retrouvent (pas avec la même intensité bien sûr) On a bien sûr la canne fraiche qu'on retrouve sur les pur jus avec des notes d'olives, thé matcha et d'artichauts et un coté végétal bien présent. La finale est plus grasse et gourmande. Une belle réussite avec un profil atypique. Santé

    Fruit,partly Clairin and tobacco.fruit, fruit schnapps, spicy, tobacco. Tobacco, smoky.In the cocktail I can imagine the Bianco well, to drink neat it is not suitable so well.

    Je ne suis pas un fan des vieux rhums Savanna. Mais j'adore leurs blancs. Et celui-ci ne fait pas exception ! La fraîcheur, les agrumes et les esters s'accorde r du tonnerre avec le fruit. Super agréable.

    Here I must contradict the previous reviews. It is not a rum for every day, but still an interesting thing and much more pleasant to drink than eg the Lord.
