9.3/10

Grâce à un membre d'un groupe Facebook j'ai pu récupérer quelques licornes GA et Herr en split. 👃 Dès l'ouverture du sample, un magnifique vernis vient englober la pièce, accompagné d'épices orientales (poivre rose, sel rose de l'Himalaya). Ça embaume les fleurs tropicales ; badamier, orchidées vanille et Tiaré Tahiti. J'ai du caramel sur le toffee, des noix de cajou caramélisées. Des fruits surmûris (jacquier, mangue, fruits de la passion) voir légèrement pourris apparaissent à mesure de la dégustation. On termine avec l'odeur d'un bocal à olives vertes et des tapenades. 😋 Première bouche sur de la fumée de bois, douelle carbonisée, très vivace et rapide comme un éclair. Puis, beaucoup de fruits sur le coulis de framboises, les pâtes de fruits rouges, les baies noires, les fruits confits. L'aspect fruité évolue sur les Loukoums, les bonbons à la rose, mais aussi vers le zeste de pamplemousse confit, l'orange sanguine. Ce côté acidulé me rappelle un mix entre des bonbons arlequins et des têtes brûlées. C'est gourmand sur des tuiles au chocolat noir/piment/framboise/pécan qui se baladent par-ci par-là. J'y trouve aussi un peu d'huile essentielle de menthe verte. L'alcool est très bien intégré autant au nez qu'en bouche. Je ne ressent pas les 64°. ⛳ Longue finale, chaude, encore les esters de fruits trop mûrs, les épices de cuisine, un chocolat noir amère. Le verre vide dégagent des effluves d'olives noires, de tapenades, de bacon fumé et de diverses salaisons. Magnifique Grand Arôme, complexe, évolutif, intense du début à la fin, sans manquer d'une certaine finesse. Le meilleur GA de chez Savanna que j'ai pu déguster pour le moment. A-t-il un concurrent sérieux ?

So versatile and intense because you know why all tear around Grand Arome bottlings. Unfortunately 😅 Fruity, spicy, intense since tasting is just fun. Cheers 🥃

#9 RumXHighE(a)ster weeks: Blind tasting: Savanna 10-15 years of aging approx. 60% mid ester Lovely combination of a mix of berries, fruits, nuts and the barrel Result: That was a good outing. Very delicious rum. The alcohol is integrated very well. The best from savanna i‘ve tried so far.
