❌️ Yo les alcoolos, Savanna - Créol 52 - 🇷🇪 - 52% Également un gros coup de cœur lors de mes années sur l'ile intense. Mon palais étant formé à l'agricole, ce pur jus me réconfortait à chaque fois que j'en avais marre du rhum traditionnel, plus répandu. Ce rhum de pur jus est fermenté 2 jours et ensuite distillé en colonne de cuivre. Malgré les similitudes de fabrication avec les agricoles des Antilles, on a un profil totalement différent du au terroir de la Reunion. On pourrait presque le qualifier de petite sœur du HERR 57 car certaines saveurs se retrouvent (pas avec la même intensité bien sûr) On a bien sûr la canne fraiche qu'on retrouve sur les pur jus avec des notes d'olives, thé matcha et d'artichauts et un coté végétal bien présent. La finale est plus grasse et gourmande. Une belle réussite avec un profil atypique. Santé

Je ne suis pas un fan des vieux rhums Savanna. Mais j'adore leurs blancs. Et celui-ci ne fait pas exception ! La fraîcheur, les agrumes et les esters s'accorde r du tonnerre avec le fruit. Super agréable.

7.7/10

Here I must contradict the previous reviews. It is not a rum for every day, but still an interesting thing and much more pleasant to drink than eg the Lord.

Beau pur jus plus herbacé que fruité avec ce côté fumé et salé qui nous fait sortir de notre zone de confort "agricole classique"

Some typical savanna flavours but not making it enjoyable. Olives, salt, a bit of smoke
