Savanna fans expecting a classic grand arôme ester bomb should recalibrate first — this one leans on its red wine cask instead. Expect burnt caramel, orange marmalade, dark chocolate and cinnamon over roasted oak, with a creamy body and a long oily finish. At 55.6% it sips surprisingly well. Several tasters loved it; a few missed the usual overripe-fruit funk.

How does Romdeluxe Savanna Collectors Series La Reunion No. 7 Grand Arôme 2013 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Wine-cask Savanna, chocolate and oak over funk Most owners rate it highly as a rich, wood-and-spice cask-strength sipper. The one recurring note: it doesn't deliver the ester explosion Savanna's grand arômes are known for.

#4453 05.11.2023 just came back after visiting a former colleague and he offered a few rums to try. I only have notes because I came unprepared 😊 This one needed to rest for a while to take off the edges. Nose: fruity, roasted wood, cinnamon and a touch of coconut. Palate: roasted wood, fruity, raisin, caramel and light chocolate. Finish: medium to long with oily touch. Fruity with some chocolate and spices. The empty glass hasld some light vegetal and solvent notes.

I can't detect a Grand Arome profile here. The red wine cask is well integrated. But overall, I don't really know what to do with this rum. It's not a bad rum.
Review by John Coffey
Better length than the 55'4%I'm still looking for that great aroma!!!
Review by Harald
Color: amber Smell: Creamy, toffee, chocolate, raisins, dates, sweet red wine spritzer. Taste: Creamy, full-bodied, spicy and delicious. Toffee, chocolate, dates. Finish: Long Creamy, spicy, chocolaty.
Review by Snorre Brouer
Beautiful color. The red wine cask is very profound and fits the rum well - but it lacks the grand arome character, which is a pity. Fruity and creamy, sips well for it's abv.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
0.2% difference to the other RdL cask and yet such a huge aromatic difference in the glass. Here you find more citrus marmalade, pineapple chutney, dark chocolate, coffee, vanilla, cinnamon and more oak cask, the red wine finish is more in the background. I like the other one much better in direct comparison as it tastes more like a grand Arome. This one is more traditional for me...
Review by Jakob
Deviates from the known profile of the Grand Aromes from La Reunion but quite clear. May be partly due to the barrel influence, but the usual DNA with overripe strawberries and mint is completely missing here. Instead, the already mentioned wood notes come to bear paired with clear spice and fruit esters, which show themselves for a Grand Arome but comparatively subliminal. The rum leaves me somewhat perplexed - the wood and spice impact is too clear to me, from Grand Aromes I expect even more estery explosion.
Review by BnBrt
Light nose Very pleasant on entry, with pep (cola? orange?). Moves on to caramel, then gives way to bitterness (white citrus, burnt caramel). Burnt caramel finish, a little too bitter for me.
Review by Romain de L
Weird degustation journey: borderline unpleasant nose, quite weak, alcohol and underlying decaying smell. Very good attack: Orange and lively but quickly turns to burnt caramel and wood. Longish finale but not super interesting. Great to sample. Would not buy a bottle
