Review by Righrum
Very nice Savanna. Traditionnel, indeed, but with some nice esters that recall Grand Arome. Some traits are usual savanna, especially apples. Good the influence of the cask, wood caramel and liquorice. A really nice dram, and enjoyable savanna.
Review by Johannes
Schöner fruchtiger (wahrscheinlich auch durch das Finish) Rum, der ganz leichte Ester Anklänge hat.
Review by Frank
A beautiful, fruity-woody nose. Besides freshness from limes and oranges, the Calvados clearly comes through with its apple notes. Some grape could also be present. Dry oak and lovely vanilla, with some cocoa and a hint of licorice out the back. On the palate, it's fruity and spicy and comes through salty and bitter at first. Again, the Calvados finish comes through with green apple. Plus some sour cherry and grapefruit. I also find nutmeg and vanilla. In the finish it remains fruity and is increasingly woody.Beautiful Savanna with Interesting Finish

Alcool mal intégré, sinon il serait très bon...
Review by Kedyns1
You can recognize the Calvados on the nose, which you miss on the palate. The cognac is too dominant. Alcohol could be integrated a little better. Finish a bit too short. A solid rum that lacks some character.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
28.02.2020 Had a nice meet up with new rum nerds. Notes. Medium dark colour. Nose Wood, fruity, light chocolate, citrus, spice, light smoke. Palate Warm, wood, fruity, pineapple, spicy, faint chocolate, light olive. Finish Medium to long, wood, spicy, medium dry, citrus. Extra note. ABV could have been better integrated.
