The recurring complaint here is water, not flavor: at 43% several tasters find it thinned out, with a short finish that ends before you want it to. What's underneath is a pretty column-still agricole — overripe tropical fruit, pineapple, sugarcane, with a green, herbal, minty side and light cedar. One reviewer even guessed Trinidad over Réunion. Elegant but held back.

How does CDI Savanna Réunion (Chez Arthur) 2011 taste?
Summarized by AI from 11 community reviews.
Pretty agricole let down by a thin, watery body Most agree the bones are good — complex, floral, easy to approach — but the low proof waters it down. Beginner-friendly, though many feel it leaves potential on the table.

So I like this Savanna, sure the ABV is very low, but it's still tasty. On the nose, some overripe tropical fruits + sugarcane, on the palate also tropical (pineapple) fruits, but also very vegetal.

Very diluted, too diluted. The rum has a depth that I would have guessed more towards Trinidad. I probably wouldn't have guessed Savanna.
Review by cigares
Great Savanna tasting with Artur. An alcoholic nose with light flavors, ripe yellow fruits and cedar wood. The entry on the palate is elegant but also watery, way too diluted despite nice yellow and tropical fruits. The finish is short, elegant. A clearly exaggerated dilution here, the rum seemed very nice but like this it's hard to appreciate it at its true value.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Quite solid Savanna Traditionnel and surprisingly complex, but a bit thin due to dilution... However, very beginner-friendly, though in my opinion that means wasted potential! More on the floral side than the fruity. Not bad but doesn't blow me away.
Review by Jarek
Kind of thin and with a very short finish.
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.
