Savanna Art of Rhum by Vast 2015
Not the funk bomb people expect from Savanna. This molasses blend leans floral and green — geranium, green apple, herbs — with menthol and licorice, then a spicy, drying oak finish. Several tasters call it a "very round easy sipper" for a summer evening, though a few find it restrained and a touch medicinal. Needs air to open up.

Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
Most helpful positive review
Blind tasting, therefore sensibly without the usual photo. Nose: inconspicuous, almost a little perfumed; palate: soft and round, digestible, solid I don't really succeed in assigning countries. Resolution: RX15667 (Now I'm almost glad to have a bottle of this after all. It is astonishing, however, that the rum scored significantly worse in my current blind tasting than in a previous tasting where I knew what I had in my glass. I find this discrepancy interesting for future trials with other rums).

I'll have to taste it under better conditions because when I see the notes it may be me who had a problem. Overall, I found it green, poorly balanced and with a pungent alcohol. I felt like I was tasting an ESB that had problems during fermentation.
Review by Oliver
Tasted for the first time at ProWein in Düsseldorf. Lots of green apple and herbs (dill?) on the nose. On the palate creamy sweet (in a positive sense) and spicy floral. Some nutmeg and green fruits again. After half an hour the rum opens up and you are rewarded with a great balanced profile. Spicy, some floral and a pleasant sweetness. Alcohol very well integrated.
Review by Rodolphe
Profil très floral sur un Savanna traditionnel. Beaucoup de fraîcheur et une touche de géraniums vraiment sympa. Très agréable, beaucoup de plaisir sur ce rhum mais étrangement plutôt un rhum d'été pour moi.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
09.05.2025 Retasting at our local tasting with Hannes from Whisky Watcher. ----- Still a very good rum ----- #4055 I like the design of the label and the price is OK in my mind. Still some way to go to reach a Grand Arôme ☺️ Fruity with light wood and some light varnish notes i love the caramel on the palate. Draws nice curtains and the empty glass is really nice and I can pick up more caramel and candied fruits.
Review by Thunderbird
The Vast is a very elegant rum with a floral note... it doesn't offer the full savanna aroma, but that's not really missing either. But it is a very good sipper for mild summer nights
Review by Dr.Django
An interesting savanna. The nose is inconspicuous, the palate starts very leisurely, after the empty attack, fermented fruit comes to the fore, especially apple and pear. Everything seems very flowery, medicinal and artificial. The alcohol is not well integrated. Second tasting: -3 points
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
The Lord share is there and quite recognizable with menthol, pineapple gum and gum bananas. The traditional share comes through here overall almost stronger with herbal and roasty spicy notes. Some licorice, some dill but also a lot of green apple! Overall, a successful and tasty blend!
Review by Lukas Jäger
Tasted at the 12th GRF in Berlin: For me one of the discoveries at the GRF. Not top class, but nice Savanna character for an affordable price. Quite round, but simpler than some single cask monsters.
Review by Mike H.
I didn’t take any notes at the Rhum Fest so a more detailed review will follow as soon as I get the chance to sample this rum again in a better context. This was definitely the highlight of the rums I tasted at the Rhum Fest 2023! Edit: Third tasting, I reduced my note from 89 to 85. Floral with delicate spices. Wood, caramel and a hint of licorice. Makes for a very round easy sipper.
Review by HenryL
A nose like I love it. Very multi-layered and herbal with underlying fruit. Unfortunately, it lacks a little complexity in the mouth. It's pleasantly sweet with a slight floral-vegetable note. But overall it is very restrained for the 52%, but the alcohol is incredibly well integrated.
Review by Leo Krüper
Green apple on the nose. Very balanced, round, caramelly on the palate. Broad molasses traditional as you would expect from Savanna without the really big complex fireworks. +1 for the design
Review by LukaŽiga
7,3:On the nose is first of all, floral. Then becomes like a sugar candy with brown sugar and fresh fruit, as some molasses and smoke come into play, menthol and licorice. With aeration, we remain in a certain restraint and a certain elegance, becomes more vegetal with rosemary, grass, is peppery, with an ashy air. 7,3:On the palate, the attack is balanced, roundly smoky with leather, that sets in, with a slight tarry side, brine, waxy. Then spices come in, as pepper, woodiness, is dry. We come across a very black vanilla pod, charred, roasted which seems to be smoking on a toasted oak barrel, some resin, maybe olive join the party, as eucalyptus.So bitterness is inevitable... 7,5:The finish is gently spicy and almost creamy, woody, dry, smoky, waxy, with some plastic, menthol, licorice and vanilla. Well, it needs a lot of rest to become enjoyable...

A pleasant and tasty molasses rum from Savanna 😋
Review by Vincent D
Au nez, j'aurais pu penser à un TDL tant menthol et bois sont les marqueurs les plus présents. Derrière, des fruits font leur apparition. En bouche, le rhum a une texture très grasse. Sensation boisée, fraiche et épicée. Du pruneau également. La patte réunionnaise bien présente. Belle longueur et finale qui amène une amertume type cuir. Sympathique. Merci beaucoup à Rodolphe pour le sample.
Review by Timo Groeger
Netter Savanna, aber irgendwie finde ich ihn nicht fruchtig und frisch, wie es die Beschreibung sagt. Für mich ist er würzig und holzig in der Nase. Am Gaumen ebenso, außerdem ist noch etwas Vanille und Lakritze erkennbar.
Review by Basti
Spices, wood and chocolate in the foreground on the nose. These are then joined by dried fig, floral notes, coriander seeds and some menthol. Predominantly spicy, woody, tart and leathery notes on the palate. Not quite to my taste in the end.
Review by RumTaTa
Very similar to RX16505 (Moray). However, this one does not have the alcoholic note, is not as intensely fruity and with more spice and wood.
Review by Mirco
better than expected 😊 Typical Savanna DNA, but traditional... As already noted, a restrained nose, which fortunately does not continue on the palate. Nice fruit and good complexity. Nice sipper, but not much more.
Review by mto75
First impression: For a traditional quite 'Grand Arome-esque'. On the nose vanilla, green fruits (gooseberries, green apple), floral notes. On the palate, tobacco, barrel, nutmeg. Many thanks to Rod for the split!
