    How does this rum taste?

    • Complex fruity aromas
    • Elegant and traditional
    • Intense woody and spicy notes

    The HERR Japan Tribute 2 is a limited-edition rum from Reunion's Savanna distillery, distilled in 2012 using a column still and matured for six years. With only 647 bottles available, this rum is built upon a sugar cane juice base and boasts a formidable 56.4% ABV. Tasting notes highlight its pronounced fruity notes, particularly peach and apple, with a balanced influence of woody and cocoa elements. Despite being a traditional rum, it is described as having a sweet, floral, and short spicy profile with an elegant complexity. Users appreciate its fruity aromas but note that the integration of flavors might feel disconnected to some.

    "Unfortunately, this is just a tribute. Standard traditional rum. Sweet and short spicy profile. Kind of next to each other and not really integrated. The Herr cask does not save this. Sadly I am not of a fan"

    "Leckerer traditionelle Agricole savanna mit grand arome Herr finish. Sehr angenehm zu trinken, mild und aromatisch. Könnte aber insgesamt etwas mehr komplex sein. Hatte ich mir etwas mehr von erwartet!"

    "Un savanna léger, fruité et floral avec beaucoup plus de sagesse que certains de ces pairs à l’image des carpes sur la boîte."
