    "Among my favorites!An intense and balanced rum with the alcohol beautifully integrated. Finally an affordable rum with phenomenal quality.On the nose and palate well marked aromas of barrel, olive, cherry/plum and roast.Currently the best rum I have tasted. Although Carones have that inimitable tar scent that I love, this one has an incredible and complex aromatic bouquet that makes for a very long tasting experience. Endless persistence. Magical!"

    "I really like the grand arome releases because they are truly grand. This one was standing on the table next to two other rums airing and it didn't take long for me to sniff this one out. The nose is fruity with varnish, wood, leather and licorice. The empty glass is even better after a while. The palate balanced very well with wood and fruit trailed by and licorice and light notes of medicine and tobacco. The finish is long and woody with dried fruit and light tobacco."

    "Für mich der beste der drei getesteten Savanna. Die deutlich verschlossenste Nase. Im Geschmack sehr schön Komplex ordentlich Leder und Ester.Aber auch schöne Frucht. Im Abgang die schönste Olivenstein Note."

    "In der Nase röstig, dunkel und „fleischig“. Am Gaumen kommt dann die typisch vergorene Fruchtigkeit dazu. Tolles Aromenspiel!"
