Savanna 57 Blanc HERR 2019

Anyone chasing wild, unaged ester rum will grin at this one. The nose is pure candy-shop — strawberry gummies, bubblegum, overripe banana and pineapple — then the palate swings from smoke to fermented fruit, with an olive-brine, medicinal edge that a couple of tasters didn't love. At 57% it's vivid and a little intense, but the long red-fruit finish keeps pulling you back.

A super baroque and expressive nose with apple alcohol, overripe pineapple, a kind of bubble gum, sweet herbs, menthol and like a smell of fresh cheese. The entry is very nice, on pineapple but with an earthy side and a taste of veined cheese (Stilton). The finish is moderately long, with all the aromas slowly diminishing. A long-lasting scent of herbs and tropical fruit remains. A very lively rum and, as usual with Savanna, special aromas.

8.3/10

What an interesting rum. I must say, the nose is fascinating - never have I come across a juicy fruit/bubblegum note like this, and it’s so prominent. The bouquet is intense - esters, candied fruits, some olive brine and a tiny bit of hay/grass on the backend. On the palate it is interesting too - ester, fruit, a little alcoholic and a little intense, some olive and green qualities without being too vegetal. There is a medicinal quality that I’m not very fond of. Can’t say that I’d find myself sipping on it but for an unaged rum it is quite fun. Mixed with diet coke on its own, it’s a little odd but I think this could be excellent in the right cocktail.

Super crazy stuff that you can’t really compare with anything else. An explosion of smells and flavors. Absolutely brilliant in cocktails if used in the right proportion.
