A rum with marked scents of olives and iodine. I feel like I'm breathing in the sea crashing on the rocks. It is really strong and leaves no room for too many nuances. Not for everyone. A summer rum! Definitely very suitable for cocktails of a certain level.I think, however, that whites, like wines, should be rated in a separate classification because they are too different from barricaded rums. This rating is high, but clearly cannot be compared to an aged rum because it is a whole different thing.
A small Savanna Tasting @ home. This one was the winner of the tasting! It‘s very similar to a HERR (still the best mark for me). Fruity, fresh, glue, berries, fluid gummi bears, olive, meaty etc. The meaty notes will almost disappear, if you add some drops of water and give it some time to rest. = Best way to drink it neat Resume: Creol<Trad G<Lontan
A really good white. The finish is long and smoky. The profile is exuberant.
Very divisive as white rum... Extremely iodized, it's crazy.
