CDI Savanna Réunion (Chez Arthur) 2011
What trips most people up here is the water: at 43% it tastes notably diluted for a 10-year agricole. Underneath, there's a nice basket of ripe yellow and tropical fruit, pineapple, sugarcane, a minty-vegetal edge and a little cedar. One taster even guessed Trinidad over Savanna. Pretty and elegant, just stretched thin with a short finish.
- Ripe tropical fruit
- Pineapple and cedar
- Easy to drink

How does CDI Savanna Réunion (Chez Arthur) 2011 taste?
Aggregated from 11 community reviews.
Fruity Reunion agricole, watered-down and thin Most find a genuinely good, fairly complex agricole hiding under heavy dilution. The recurring catch: too watered down, thin body and a short finish that sells the fruit short.

Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
Nose: fruit basket/woody/mentholatedFeel: vegetal/pineapple/vanillaAverage finish: candied fruits/woody Nice unpretentious farmhouse, probably a bit too small to reach a larger audience. Moreover, it is not the branch that interests me the most from Savanna.
Review by Johannes
Sehr verdünnt, zu sehr verdünnt. Der rum hat eine tiefe, die ich eher Richtung Trinidad getippt hätte. Auf savanna wäre ich wahrscheinlich nicht gekommen.
Review by Jarek
Kind of thin and with a very short finish.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Recht solider savanna traditionnell und überraschend komplex, aufgrund der Verwässerung aber auch etwas dünn... Dafür aber auch sehr Einsteiger freundlich, meiner Meinung nach dadurch aber auch verschenktes Potential! Eher auf der blumigen als auf der fruchtigen Seite. Nicht schlecht aber haut mich nicht um.
