Vagabond Spirits Savanna HARMONY (Château de Bonaguil High Proof) SVN 2025

Anyone who likes their rum young, raw and closer to a fruit brandy will find plenty here. Several tasters say it smells more like Obstler than rum — pear, banana, apricot, very ripe raisin, with young oak that reads older than its 11 months. The palate is oily and coats the mouth, fruity and grassy, with a molasses sweetness running into the finish. Interesting, if a touch unfinished.

Verkostet auf dem German Rum Fest 2026. Im Grunde eine gute Abfüllung. Denke aber, das dieser Rum einige Zeit im Glas braucht um sich zu entwickeln. Ist an der Nase doch sehr alkoholisch. Aber auf so einer Messe hat man nicht unbedingt die Zeit. Muss nochmal in ruhe probiert werden.

8.2/10

Tasted as a sample. Very interesting and attractive nose with good fruit smells like pear, banana and apricot. It seems sweet. A bit of alcohol also comes through. The palate continues to be fruity, oily aspect. After several sips a spicy sensation. Sweet fruity finish and brown sugar. A bit of marzipan. I would say this Savanna goes off the beaten path and offers a pleasant tasting.
