Savanna Créol Straight 2022 Limited Edition 2021
Green olive brine is the first thing that hits you — this leans more savory than sweet, closer to a mezcal than most white rums. Underneath sits fresh sugarcane, citrus, anise and a peppery, almost chili-hot spice, with a light iodine-salt edge. At 68.7% it should be a monster, yet nearly everyone says the alcohol drinks in shockingly well. Intense, unmistakably Savanna, love-it-or-leave-it.

Overall an extremely tasty Agricole Blanc. This rum from the Savanna Distillery in Reunion is distilled in 2021 in their Savalle column and bottled after 9 months of rest in vats in 6500 bottles. It has a quite high rate of congeners of 267.3 gr/hlap.

Wow... this is one of the most extreme clear Agricoles I've tasted so far. I've never experienced the grass and vegetal aromas so intense and present in any other. From the nose to the finish, it keeps firing off these aromas nonstop. That's a bit too much for me. The enjoyment suffers because of it. I'll try the rest as a Daiquiri. Okay, it works in the Daiquiri... but it's no revelation either.

#4135 Here are the last of the samples. Nice having a break to let the taste buds recover. This is a nice Savanna. Intense profile yet well balanced I'd even say smooth. It needs to rest for a while before it really opens up.
Review by Timo Groeger
Short trip reunion September 2024 The highlight of the day was the Savanna Creol Straight with 68.7%. Beautiful agricole, very herbal and citrus fruits on the nose and palate. I think the alcohol is well integrated. Fun fact: you can't buy Savanna in normal supermarkets here, only in certain stores or bars.
Review by Vincent D
Very powerful. Cane. Vegetal. Spicy. An extremely strong concentrate of what Savanna can produce. As often, it can't leave you indifferent: you either love it or you don't. No half measures.
Review by Galli33
A small Savanna Tasting @ home. This one was quite good. Typical Savanna notes with some meaty, leather notes on the palate. Resume: Creol
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Really great nose of juicy blackberries, mirabelle plums, sugar cane and some olive. Very green, spicy and yellow stone fruit on the palate, slightly salty and bitterly herbal, medicinal. Alcohol surprisingly well integrated. Daiquiri test: some honeydew melon, a little green bell pepper, minimal olive and mirabelle plum. Overall quite round and surprisingly drinkable for the alcohol strength!
Review by primus
Definitely a clear little drop worth trying. Not for the faint-hearted, the punch is well integrated but still a punch. Taste-wise interesting. Maybe the comparison is off, but what puberty is for kids, this bottle is for Reunion rum.
Review by Tim
A special kind of rum! Very earthy, floral, vegetarian and somehow artificial-sounding. Also a lot of vegetables (green, olive) on the palate, but still a certain coherence so that pure enjoyment is okay. A bit more fruit comes in the finish.
Review by The Specialist
A very nice and tasty Savanna Agricole Blanc. The alcohol is well integrated. Nose floral, citrus fruits and olive. On the palate brine and intense olive. You have to like it but I find it very successful.
Review by Rum man
This rum reminds me a bit of a mezcal with the green bell peppers and smoky notes. It is a very intense beast that delivers in fierce flavours. I can imagine this works very well in cocktails to bring out a punchy twist.
Review by ccajerem
This is a pure cane juice in brut de colonne with a 9-month rest in vats (which is long, and all the better for it) and a short 2-day fermentation (normal for a pure cane juice). 6500 bottles were produced. 👃: The very first time I put my nose close to the neck, I was greeted by the green olive. This was followed by fresh notes of sugar cane, anise, lime, but also slightly salty iodine notes. The nose is very approachable and blind I wouldn't have guessed the 68.7 degrees of alcohol. Taste: here, on the other hand, you can feel the cavalry arriving, with spicy, almost spicy notes well counterbalanced by... A lot of things really. I had to come back several times because the aromas are so intense and varied. First, lots of freshness with vegetal and earthy notes, then the licorice stick and decla cane sweetness return in full force. The finish is long, slightly peppery, sweet and then vegetal, with a slight taste of... White radish. As I wrote that, I thought to myself, "Are you nuts? White radish? But I'm not going to give up. In the end, we have a rum with a rather classic nose, well made but with no great surprises and bluffing for its alcohol content. On the palate, it's stronger and funkier, with a superb balance of alcohol and sweetness. All in all, this Creol Straight is a great success, and will undoubtedly stand out in a cocktail.
Review by Torsten vom Endt
An agricole as it should be. Every sip surprises anew. Pleasantly sweet, fresh and fruity. On the next sip the peppery note comes through fully. The fruity note is there without one fruit dominating. The high alcohol content does not fully come through, which suits the very good overall impression well. The price-performance ratio is outstanding.
Review by John Coffey
This spicy side is not for me
Review by Gaston NP
The nose is top, the fresh cane.
Review by Yoann Adast
In the first taste, I find dried orange peel, almost orange zest, big/big bitterness. There are also spices: pepper, anise, cardamom, others that escape me for the moment. Herbaceous, fresh cane, Slight iodine on the lips Quite fatty Very well-integrated alcohol, powerful, long, spicy finish, freshness Very, very good
Review by samuel cutullic
A nice discovery for me who am not a fan of white rum. A typical taste that would bring us back to the distillery with the smell of sugar cane. A marvel to discover in my opinion.
Review by LesTontonsMaltés
This pure cane juice, with a congeners level of 267.3 g/hlap 💥, was distilled in a Savalle column and was not reduced. ▪️ ⚠️ sensitive souls beware, but it's definitely worth it, forget everything you know about pure cane juice, here we have a UFO 🛸 ▪️ Notes of olive brine! Ultra vegetal, a bomb of freshness! Citrus invade your senses! You won't come out unscathed from this adventure... what a joy! ▪️ In tasting it's a slap! But also in cocktails! The Daiquiri suits it wonderfully! 🤤
Review by GuiRum
At the opening, you are immediately transported to Savanna! On the nose, you find beautiful notes of anise, olive, fresh cane, citrus and ripe fruits. On the palate, there is cane, accompanied by olive and citrus, with a slight hay note. It lingers quite a long time in the mouth. It's excellent! In ti’ punch, it is just as good. What I particularly appreciate in this rum is its unique identity: it doesn't resemble any other. Top! I highly recommend it!

It is by far not bad but we seen absolutely great images savannas. So in the end this does not win my heart. Makes a nice daiquiri but still not the greatness I would want to see. Also I need 200 characters for the count....
