Savanna Créol - Calvados Finish 2007
Cane-juice agricole fans who also like Calvados will get the most out of this one. The apple note is everywhere — fresh and a bit overripe — sitting on light wood, tropical fruit and a vegetal edge. At 61.4% it runs hot and oily. A couple of tasters caught some early bitterness; for one it slightly "ruins a bit the experience," for another it's the best Savanna with Calvados.
- Strong apple note
- Well-integrated wood
- Long oily finish

Apple-forward agricole with Calvados finish Most people enjoy it — a Reunion agricole where the Calvados finish brings real apple without taking over. Watch for a touch of opening bitterness and high-proof heat.

Review by Johannes
The Calvados finish comes through really well, but not too dominant.
Review by Righrum
A nice Savanna agricole, with a lot of calvados influence.There's a kind of bitterness at the beginning that ruins a bit the experience
Review by Gil Firth
Had this one this one long time ago. With a friend. It was nice but really nothig special. Spicy. Some glue and apple. טעימה אצל חבר ממזמן שתיתי אותו. קשה לי לזכור אותו בצורה טובה זכור לי כרום בהיר. תפוחי. עשבוני. מתובלן. נחמד אבל אבל שום דבר מיוחד.
Review by Kedyns1
Great apple note on the nose which intensifies even more on the finish. Rating raised. For me the best Savanna ever with Calvados
