    How does this rum taste?

    extremely round with well-integrated alcohol
    More fruity in the nose than in the taste
    Really extremely harmonious with great value

    Rum Nation Savanna Reunion 2018 leans into herbal, woody, and vanilla notes, with layers of dried figs, dates, and some subtle grassiness. The nose is described as having "diesel & green bananas" (@Jan.Caroni) and "extremely round with well-integrated alcohol" (@w00tAN). Community comments frequently mention warm spices, hints of caramel, and a medicinal edge. Reviewers point out a complex interplay of dried fruits, herbs, and wood, with the occasional touch of industrial or oily character. Not everyone is won over by the pronounced herbs or alcohol, but many appreciate its evolving profile—"sort of like cognac/brandy in woodiness" (@Rowald Sweet Empire)—especially after a good rest in the glass.

     My first Savanna, I was directly in love. But after I tasted the 2007 Rum Nation, this one falls back a bit. Very very tasty and good Savanna, a little more alcoholic and less complex. But has something of everything, fruit, wood, spices and floral notes. Even with increasing experience still a great part

     Not bad, I kind of like this rum more every time time I drink it. Several tastings in and still like it 😋 - Long since last time, but still good.

     09.02.2024 Nordlichter treffen. Retasting and it lost a few point. Price to quality is still very good in my mind. ---------------------- This beautiful rum needs to rest. I found that after 15 plus minutes it started to release a lot of flavours as well as esters. You may need a few drops of water because of the gmhigh proof, but not a must. A beautiful nose that made you wonder if the palate would falter, but it didn't, it maintained the high quality. A very young rum that hits all the right marks. Price to quality is very good.
