Savanna Unshared Cask (Denmark) 2009
One taster called this "the least savanna" Savanna he'd had — the cognac cask basically takes over. Expect dried fruit, walnut, caramel and dark spice, then a very woody, bitter, drying finish that leans toward dark chocolate and leather. The 59% sits surprisingly well for most, though a couple found the alcohol a touch hot and the cask too dominant.
- Dried fruit, nuts
- Well-hidden 59% ABV
- Complex cask influence

Aggregated from 51 community reviews.
Woody, dried-fruit, cognac-cask-driven Savanna Most enjoy the dried-fruit-and-walnut richness and how well the high ABV hides; some feel the cognac cask buries the usual Savanna character and runs bitter and very dry.

Review by SaibotZtar
Delicious Savanna... Still very reserved and closed on the nose. On the palate deliciously slightly fruity paired with bitterness and wood notes almost in the direction of dark chocolate. Very dry finish.
Review by Jakob
Schöner Traditional-Stil, tolle Struktur und Komplexität mit angenehmer Fruchtnote aus dem Cognac-Fass, dazu Nüsse, Holz, dunkle Gewürze. Das gesamte Profil bleibt auch im Nachhall lebendig, der Alkohol ist sehr schön eingebunden. Gelungene Auswahl.
Review by Johannes
Wow, was für ein toller Rum! Sehr schöner, komplexer Fasseinfluss mit den typischen tropischen Savanna-Fruchtnoten..
Review by Michal Jurka
Right after the pour it is very fresh and floral but quickly turns into sweeter, more confectionery style - pastries, caramel, vanilla, nuts, pralines, hints of coconut. The taste however is quite different, bit spicy, even peperry, roasted and woody.
Review by Michal S
Velmi pěkná Savanna, hodně sušeného ovoce, karamelu, ořechů a koření. Je patrný vliv staření v sudu po koňaku, naopak téměř není znát síla skoro 60 % alkoholu. K ochutnání doporučuju, jde o povedené plnění.
