Savanna Unshared Cask for Belgium
A lighter, more delicate Savanna, big on green apple and wood, with a rounder vanilla accent. Not the loudest cask, but worth trying if you like fresher, fruit-leaning rums.
Fresh, green, lightly woody with subtle vanilla and fruit.

How does this rum taste?
- intense apple notes
- pleasant, light rum with mild acidity
- alcohol is perfectly integrated
Savannaâs Unshared Cask for Belgium leans toward youthful freshness, with green apple, woody, and vegetal notes leading the charge. Many find it âvery intense on the appleâ (@Filip Ć ikula) and âa pleasant, light rum with mild acidity like appleâ (@Jeremy Roger đ«đ·). It does have a gentle side: the vanilla and subtle coconut bring a rounder note, while several RumX members comment on its faint spice and honey. Still, a few feel the mouthfeel is thin, with the âfinish... very dry and too shortâ (@Rare Akuma). This is a delicate, lightly fruity spirit with plenty of green, fresh character.

"The second unshared cask from Savanna for Belgium. Strawberry yoghurt and burnt sugar on the nose and palate. The alcohol is not well integrated. The finish is flat and simply sweet. This is probably Savanna's worst unshared cask to date."
"27.02.2021 A nice blind tasting in a friend's home. Bottles covered in tin foil and only numbers to match up the glass with the bottle. Notes Light to medium dark in colour. Nose Fresh, light wood, light roasted, or and, coconut, faint smoke, raisin. Palate Balanced, fresh, light wood, orange, coconut, light spicy, faint mint, light vegetal. Finish Medium long, light wood, dried fruit, light orange, faint licorice."
"This Single Cask for Belgium has a rather atypical, full-bodied profile for its young age. The nose is heavily influenced by fruit (raisins, yellow fruit and green apple), but spicy and floral notes balance the profile. It gains in opulence and fruitiness as it airs, but with a skilful balance between sweetness and complexity. A promising Savanna on paper. On the palate, however, there's a sensation of lightness, altered by a diluted edge that spoils the opening. This is a pity, as the fruity markers (yellow fruit, green apple, grape) remain perceptible but are much less aromatic on the palate. Bitterness and greenness take up more space, as do oak and spice. The alcohol could have been better integrated. The finish is very short, with only a faint hint of fruit, soon overtaken by the woody, vegetal influence that adds bitterness. A very changeable profile, a little disconcerting, which could have been aged a little longer to gain in finesse and depth."
"Leider weit entfernt von dem bisherigen Geschmacks- und Geruchsprofil welches ich bei Savanna so schĂ€tze. Eher âflachâ"
