Savanna Art of Rum by REPY AGA 2019
Sipped neat, this is a divisive one: briny green olive up front, then sour red fruit, strawberry, young oak and a whiff of solvent that a few tasters likened to fruit schnapps. An AGA blend of agricole and Grand Arôme, and its youth shows. Funky and mineral, with a dry, sometimes bitter finish and heat that not everyone found fully tucked in.
The community says- Olive and funk
- Fruity, floral nose
- But: Hot alcohol

How does Savanna Art of Rum by REPY AGA 2019 taste?
Summarized by AI from community reviews.
Funky, olive-driven Savanna, young and sharp Most land around "interesting more than lovable" — olive, strawberry and funk are all there, but many call it young, sharp and a bit unbalanced, with the alcohol not fully integrated.

A young Savanna with a strong influence of the damp warehouse. At first, it's rather a surprising fruit brandy, then it oscillates between woody and red fruits, a bit of brine.. The finish evolves on olive. Young but still complex. Edit: new tasting, more intense and varnished than I remember, still very good, you have to give it time to open up! Edit 2: Savanna x RumX evening: fruitier than I remember, and even better too. Maybe also more olive.

A Savanna that leaves me pretty cold after tasting. A decent clean rum, without edges or corners. The finish is quite short, the light wood and fruit notes disappear quickly.
Review by LukaŽiga
8,4:On the nose, overripe, fermented, slightly rotten and pungent red, citrus fruits, slightly briny olive, young wood, a bit roasted with biscuits, pastry, butterscotch, nuts, spicy with ginger, vanilla, mineral sugarcane, bump into our nosetrils. On aeration, cognac notes are stronger, with dried fruits, also sugar cane juice, flowery with Jasmine.Various fruits join, like banana, blackcurrant, more intense roasted notes, smoky, with chocolate. 8,3:On the palate, the attack is dry, slightly pungent with overripe, fermented, rotten strawberries, bitter orange, cherries, later bananas, cognac helps with dried fruits, the olive is briny, the cane herbaceous, mineral, flowery with Jasmine, becomes candied, so do bananas, and the wood roasted with butterscotch, cocoa, spicy vanilla. 8,1:The finish is long, dry&tannic, less balanced, intriguing, as the cane is peppery, vegetal, grassy, pairing overripe strawberries, banana and bitter orange, roasted wood notes, smoky, metallic patina. Edit:4.7.26, oxidation helps, upgrade for 0,2
Review by Tschusikowsky
This rum has a very special and unusual profile. A hint like cap gun ammunition from a toy pistol. Also old furniture or an antique shop comes to mind. On the palate, the rum feels sweet with notes of berries, grape sugar, mineral, and a slight plastic tone, with strawberry in the background. The drinking strength is very good, the alcohol is optimally integrated. Unfortunately, the finish is rather short.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
#5837 26.09.2025 Savanna tasting from Paris while attending the Whisky Live 2025. Nose Medium intense, fresh, fruity, light wood, cherry, faint mint, light floral, light ester. Palate Medium intense, medium spicy, light wood, light ester, light floral, banana, spice. Finish Very long and light spicy with some tannins, fruits, light citrus, light cherry.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
The young age is noticeable both on the nose and palate. Young oak, cognac, olive brine, and very sour notes reminiscent of unripe strawberries. The overall aroma profile just doesn't feel harmonious to me and the alcohol integration could be better. Too young and unbalanced, too sharp and especially too sour. More time in the barrel might have helped here.
Review by Timo Groeger
Savanna Masterclass. I like this rum. Very mineral on the nose. Olive and (overripe) fruits are noticeable. Olive and tropical fruits remain on the palate, some wood also comes in.

Savanna RumX tasting 26.09.25: Another Art of Rum bottling that doesn't fully convince me this time either. It's easy to drink, but somehow something expressive is missing in the aroma. It's simply "generic."
Review by TheRhumhoe
A younger Savanna compared to the other Art of Rum releases, and it shows. The nose is quite expressive with notes of tropical and red fruits and ripe citrus, olive, spices, and a slight smoky scent. The influence of cognac is noticeable and gives an alcoholic edge to the nose. The olfactory profile is varied but lacks a bit of structure and integration of the aromas, which mix haphazardly.\n\nThe palate is somewhat similar; there are aromas but the overall impression falls a bit flat. You find strawberry and exotic fruits, olive, some spices, and a few herbaceous notes leaning towards cane. The cognac is present, and the profile is drier and more bitter than on the nose. The alcohol is not badly integrated, but the profile is far from transcendent and harmonious.\n\nThe finish is not the most striking with some notes of spices, olive, cognac, and ripe strawberry. It keeps this dry and bitter side but is clearly not the best memory, the aromas fading quickly. A rum that is not fundamentally bad, but Savanna has accustomed us to better for this kind of bottling. A few more years of aging wouldn’t have hurt.
Review by zabo
Tried together that evening in parallel with the by Yann. Unfortunately, it wasn't much better and definitely not something I need a bottle of. Thanks RumX for the Savanna sample set by the way.
Review by Joachim Guger
Savanna tasting on September 26, 2025 – Eight samples were tasted and expertly explained. The Savanna hype somehow passed me by again, but it was a really great event. Many thanks to RumX and the Savanna team – more of this, please! The Savannas are true experts and craftsmen. Complex, 60% ABV, flattering on the palate. Working with different styles such as Creole, Traditional, and HERR leads to a diversity that few distilleries offer. Everything is top-notch! Second sample REPY. Slightly less spice and more fruit than Le Must. More drinkable and better overall.
Review by Skyfly
Typical Savanna markers with strawberry and olive are present. The nose also has fermented, tropical, and citrus fruits. It is somewhat reminiscent of fruit brandy. Wood and a little bitterness are added on the palate. Alcohol is well integrated. Not a particularly outstanding representative of Savanna.
Review by Michael Schou
#1804 10-07-2026 - Rate 8.5 Enjoying a summer evening with my mate Anders. Summer 26’ is Savanna summer. And no tasting without a Savanna or two. This one is the second best Atr of Rum bottle. Nice profile the age taken in consideration. 16-07-2026 - Rate 8.5
Review by Tim
An der Nase viel Frucht mit viel verkohlten Holz. Pflanzlich! Etwas scharfes und stechendes liegt ebenfalls in der Nase. Ganz rund ist das nicht. Im Mund trocken bitter, zwar fruchtig, aber wieder starke Schlagseite zu Fass, Gewürze, dunkle Schokolade. Überzeugt mich nicht wirklich.
Review by Jakob
On the nose with fermented fruit, wood, olive, tea, and a hint of paprika and floral notes. On the palate, it has a surprising aroma of roasted nuts and chocolate, which accompanies the aroma spectrum of the nose. Added to this is a firm spiciness in the finish, which comes from the alcohol on the one hand, but also reminds me of chili and therefore takes a little getting used to. Overall, a complex, balanced, and intense rum — very good.
Review by Johannes
Good, fruity Savanna with light olive and meaty notes, almost leaning towards the Grand Arome from Galion. Definitely a matter of taste, as it's quite special...
Review by SaibotZtar
Very restrained nose: tropical fruits, honey, a bit of ginger. Alcohol well integrated. On the palate, first impression 58%??? I would have guessed much less. Some fruit, some wood... somehow not exciting but quite drinkable. I find the price too high here.
Review by FischeJ
Savanna Tasting 2025
Review by Mirco
Floral profile with light notes of blossoms, fresh fruit, and a subtle sweetness. On the palate lively, but the alcohol comes through a bit too sharp and covers the finer nuances. Spicy and slightly grassy hints bring structure but feel edgy. The finish is medium length with floral notes, overall not a badly made rum, but for me unbalanced.
Review by Lukas Jäger
Tried in the RumX masterclass on 26.09.25: Exciting because very floral and bitter. A very distinctive note, possibly olive. Along with bitter orange and fermented fruits. Good, but for me a weak Savanna.
Review by Boletus
The noticeably young blend of Agricole and Grand Arome shows some vegetal aromas, which are met with sour fruits and spicy notes. For me, the result is a bit too edgy, but the profile is definitely not boring. Savanna Masterclass Online Tasting on 26.09.25; many thanks to the RumX team.
Review by Michal Jurka
On the nose distinguishably sweet-soury-salty olive water, quite mineral, even lightly smoky, I don't really get much fruit, maybe hints of red fruits and hints of minty freshness. The taste is quite sharp, herbal, the olives continue here but noticeably backgrounded, sweeter and fruitier notes become more dominant. Not bad, quite well balanced, but still VAST is still the best one in this art series.

Review by Jan Lu
It's a bit sharp-edged. That's the first thing that comes through. In the nose as well as on the palate. Very fruity and floral. With a long finish that I quite like. To be honest, I expected more here.
Review by Adrianv
Savanna online tasting, tmrw WLP25, nice start!
Review by Mentalo
Very idiosyncratic bottling from Savanna. Unfortunately, it's not mine. The alcohol is not well integrated. Fruity on the palate with a plastic note. Something sour about it. The best thing is the nose. It briefly raised hopes of a Grand Arome.
Review by anter
Burun Yoğun bir şekilde Plastik Kolluklar ve şişme botlarda kullanan o plastiğin kokusu, kauçuk çizme. Altta briny bir taraf; hem yeşil zeytin hem siyah zeytin ezmesi. Toasty bir alt taraf; biraz toasted coconut chip ve kızarmış ekmek. Yeşil üzüm. Kapari. Biraz vanilyalı krema belki altta. Kuru kayısılar ve pişmiş kuru kırmızı erikler. Güneş kremi. sebzemsi, vegetal bir taraf da var. Sönük bir kuru nane. Kekik yağı. Kompleks ve ilginç bir burun, özellikle o kauçuk notasının realizmi funk tabirini kullanmaya zorluyor insanı; o aromayı tam anlamıyla sevip sevmediğime hala karar vermedim. Her türlü ilginç olduğu ve boş olmadığı kesin, iyi! 85 Damak Damakta beklenmedik bir derecede yükselen bitkisellik ve mentol! Melisa suyu, zeytin ezmesi, bolca yeşil zeytin. Kırmızı kapya biber. Tarhun otu, kekik yağı. Kauçuk notası o kadar “gerçekçi” ki süpermarketlerde satılan plastik botlardan birini ısırmış gibi hissediyorum. Salamura, kornişon turşusu belki, kapari. Baharatsılık. Orta değilse orta-yüksek gövde, oldukça sek, ilginç bir bitterlik. Bariz taniklik. Hafifçe Palo santo arkadan. Birkaç denge sorunu var, birkaç gençlik göstergesi de mevcut ama kompleksitesi gayet yerinde. “Acquired taste” denilebilir. Kauçuk bazı insanları zorlayabilir ama yinede iyi. 84 Bitiş Yeşil ve sarı chartreuse’ler; hafif balsı ve süpürgeotsu tarafıyla sarı, kekik yağı, yeşil zeytin ve tarhun otuyla yeşil. Ortanın biraz üstünde intensity’ye sahip, orta değilse bir tık daha uzun olduğu söylenebilecek bir bitiş. Floral notalar beliriyor. Belki çiçek balı. Plastiksi taraf hafiflese de içicinin peşini bırakmıyor. Melisa özü yine. Yaseminli yeşil çay! Biraz Pelin otu belki. Oldukça bitkisel burası. Belkide en iyi kısmı burası; kauçuk azalıyor ve floralite ile bitkisellik ilginç bir harmoni yaratıyor. 85 Genel izlenim İlginç bir şişeleme olduğu kesin, bu tatlara biraz daha alışmam gerekiyor. Bir funk var kesinlikle, o plastiksi taraf biraz zorlayıcı olabiliyor bu seviyede sanki. Eleştiriler bir kenara güzel bir kompleksite hissediliyor. Ester severleri üzmeyeceği kesin. İyi. 84 Total: 84,5 [84] Fiyat performans: Orta, Orta-Düşük. Tekrar alır mıyım?: Bu fiyatlara sanmıyorum…
Review by Jarek
small, private Savanna Coss tasting 2025-07-10: Basically, I can get something out of most Savanna bottlings, but I don't really warm to this one. Nose. The palate and finish are mainly reminiscent of a fruit brandy. The alcohol is not really well integrated.

Review by Martin Spooner
Tasting in the Savanna masterclass 2025. The nose has a very clear olive. On the palate this comes out even stronger. Strong aroma with an interesting agricole touch. Really interesting. 80% agricole, 20% grand arôme.
Review by Righrum
Whisky Live Paris 2025 - to be tasted again to confirm score and notes An average savanna, quite fresh but overall it still has an enough standard and plain traditionnel profile.
Review by Maxime Clr 🇫🇷
A nice nose with fruit, but a disappointing palate, too much on anise, bitterness, and wood.
Review by Michal S
I appreciate the project and the effort to do something new, but this won’t justify its price. In the nose fruit, olives, overripe brandy; in taste wood and strawberries stand out. Overall I’d say the rum is more interesting than something I’d look forward to opening a bottle of.
Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
🟣 Savanna – Art of Rum by REPY – 57% Back to Savanna, this time with a real Artist Edition, illustrated by REPY, a graffiti artist and Reunion Island artist. The originality doesn't stop at the label: this is an unprecedented AGA blend (Agricole + Grand Arôme before aging), distilled in 2019, aged 6 years in ex-Cognac barrels in a humid warehouse, and bottled at 57%. 2,400 bottles total. 👃 Nose Powerful, very “Savanna Grand Arôme”: green olive, smoke, tropical fruits, with discreet woodiness and a saline minerality in the background. 👅 Palate Expressive and funky: olive, strawberry, fruit brandy, with spice nuances, floral notes and a little salty touch. 📝 My impression Honestly, I found it a bit too young, too focused on olive, and with a somewhat overwhelming bitterness. Not my thing, clearly. But fans of very “funky” profiles might find their happiness here.
Review by Philip M. 🇧🇪
17/09/2025: online Savanna Masterclass by Rhumlicious. Savanna Art of Rum is a blend of Agricole rhum and some Grand Arôme. It's a young Savanna where the alcohol could be integrated a bit better. Not my favorite of the evening.
