Rhums Gadyamb Savanna Skori 2021
Drinkers who like young, fruit-forward Savanna and don't mind cask-strength heat will get the most from this. Think pear, citrus, vanilla and dark chocolate, with a red-wine-cask edge one taster caught as an "almost chemical" banana-candy note. Only five months in wine casks, so it drinks young and juicy. A few find it a touch too sweet for what it is.
The community says- Overwhelming fruitiness
- Chocolate and citrus
- But: Sharp alcohol edge

Young, fruity Savanna with a wine-cask twist Fruity, juicy and unusual, with dark chocolate and citrus. Most enjoy it despite the youth; a few call the 52.6% sharp-edged and suspect it reads sweeter than a Savanna needs to.

7,9:On the nose, roasted wood notes with caramel, roasted nuts and cocoa, spicy, slightly alcoholic, mineral, fruity with pear and citrus fruits, vegetal molasses, bump into our nosetrils. On aeration, yellow and dried fruits arise, flowery molasses, sweet with honey, metallic patina. 8,1:On the palate, the attack is fruity with red fruits(cherries), pears(like a fruit schnapps), dried apricots, oranges, later bananas and lime peel, as the wood is roasted with roasted nuts, dark chocolate, caramel, spicy with vanilla, ginger. The molasses is fresh, herbaceous, grassy and flowery, sweet with honey, slightly mineral.When the rum is well oxidized, some bitterness crawls in. 8:The finish is rather long, dry and tannic, fruity with dried fruits, banana, pear and grapes, pairing the roasted wood with chocolate and caramel, spicy with vanilla, ginger, as the molasses is slightly minty... Edit:14.2.26

A relatively young Savanna with an unusual flavor profile, very drinkable. Personally, though, too sweet for me (as if a little dosage was added).
Review by Skyfly
Cologne-Bonn rum tasting: I would never have recognized Savanna. Already very alcoholic on the nose, some pear, otherwise citrus fruits, fresh and vegetal. On the palate vegetal and some vanilla to taste.
Review by Gregor
Has a bit of a matured high-proof Williams character. The fruitiness is overwhelming. But it is damn intense and simply delicious and extraordinary. You should definitely try it at least once.

Seems a bit young.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Very tasty round Savanna. A bit unusual in aroma but really drinkable. Extremely harmonious for 5 months in a red wine cask.
Review by Jan Lu
Very fruity with plenty of sweetness. Unfortunately this one is a bit sharp-edged. If only the alcohol were less piercing and better integrated. Actually good but unfortunately this ruins a lot, shame.
Review by Oliver
Great blend of Traditionnel and Agricole. Only aged 5 months in red wine cask - still flavorful and not too wild. Very fair price - recommended!
Review by Leo Krüper
Unspectacular
Review by Léo Delek
I find the almost chemical banana like candy. Also a certain astringency like grape/seed brought by the red wine finish.
Review by Tim
Solid rum from Savanna with pleasant and rounded notes, but nothing really extraordinary. You find fruits, chocolate, and caramel in medium intensity. Price to quality: very good.
Review by Vincent D
Greedy nose: fruits, vanilla, sweetness even if the alcohol is there.in mouth, we feel quickly the 52° at the first sip. We are well at Savanna. Not on a HERR, something more docile and greedy: chocolate, citrus fruits again, vanilla too. A rather cool rum for its very young age.
Review by passlemix
A rum I forgot to note on the spot. But now that the bottle is finished, I can say it’s a juice I enjoyed coming back to, easy, fresh but still with some complexity. A very good value for money for a Savanna even young.
Review by Barnagricole
Beautiful texture on the palate and the alcohol is well integrated. In terms of aromas, it's well balanced, I get white chocolate and some little spices, it's very round. And there's a nice slightly mineral finish. It's very good!

Unfortunately totally falls off on the palate. Sweetened? I would say clearly and savanna certainly doesn't need that.
