Rum Nation Savanna Reunion 2018 2011
Sip a drop of water and give it fifteen minutes — this Savanna opens slowly into cut herbs, chamomile, dried figs and dates, with vanilla, caramel and an oily, almost industrial edge underneath. At 60.5% the herbal, medicinal side dominates and stays there. One taster caught diesel and green banana that reminded him of Caroni. Woody and spicy, closer to brandy in that respect.

From community reviews · summarized with AI
Herbal, medicinal cask-strength Savanna Loved by fans of herbal, medicinal Savanna, and most rate the value highly. The catch: the alcohol isn't always well-integrated and the herbs can feel one-note.

My first Savanna, I was directly in love. But after I tasted the 2007 Rum Nation, this one falls back a bit. Very very tasty and good Savanna, a little more alcoholic and less complex. But has something of everything, fruit, wood, spices and floral notes. Even with increasing experience still a great part

The nose is intense and highly evolved. Woody, vanilla, peppery and licorice. Then it heads for the Pyrenees with a very herbaceous profile. Finally, esters join the party (acetone, chewing gum, etc.). On the palate, the attack is rather frank and aggressive. The herbaceous profile is more pronounced (chamomile, aniseed, etc.), even medicinal. Softer elements (vanilla - apple - grapes) soften the initial attack. The finish is dry and spicy, with a slight tannic bitterness. A single cask with a nice fruitiness (sour cherries).
Review by w00tAN
Great rum, extremely round with well-integrated alcohol. Nose mainly floral with herbs, some citrus fruit. On the palate first dried fruits, caramel which are replaced by a medicinal herbal note. The finish remains spicy. Really extremely harmonious with top value for money.
Review by Stefan L
Not bad, I kind of like this rum more every time time I drink it. Several tastings in and still like it 😋 - Long since last time, but still good.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
strong PLV Savanna! hubba bubba cherry/strawberry and ice candy with peach iced tea... just the way you like Savanna and at a really good price! but also quite barrel-heavy...
Review by Johnny Rumcask
Strong herb-heavy Traditional, which needs a lot of resting time and then slowly opens up. The herbs still dominate even then. Alcohol could be better integrated, but that also improves with longer resting time. Price is okay, but profile-wise too boring for me.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
09.02.2024 Nordlichter treffen. Retasting and it lost a few point. Price to quality is still very good in my mind. ---------------------- This beautiful rum needs to rest. I found that after 15 plus minutes it started to release a lot of flavours as well as esters. You may need a few drops of water because of the gmhigh proof, but not a must. A beautiful nose that made you wonder if the palate would falter, but it didn't, it maintained the high quality. A very young rum that hits all the right marks. Price to quality is very good.
Review by RumTaTa
Pronounced roasted aromas and a strong influence of the barrel are noticeable. Besides that, nice fruitiness with dried plums and sour cherries. For my taste, the alcohol is not well integrated - better with some water. Savanna-typical notes are also there but not very present.
Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
Hits all the right flavours. More fruity in the nose than in the taste. Figs, dates. Spices: warm and winterly, vanilla and cinnamon. Chocolate, coffee and butterscotch. Caramel. Sort of like cognac/brandy in woodiness. Price quality ratio this is perfect. Drink slowly.
Review by Pavel Spacek
Rums from the Savanna distillery are among my favorites. I recommend everyone try especially the ester-heavy pieces like Grand Arome or HERR. You haven't felt so much fruit in just a few drops of liquid for a long time.
Review by Jonas Kofod
Interesting. Many complex notes, But to strong for me to really enjoy.
Review by Decky Hicks Doughty
The nose has loads of herbal notes. A general cut herb mix. There's also camomile, currants and an industrial oily note. Very intriguing. The palate is dry. A big hit of the herbs from the nose. There's an almost dockside industrialness to this. Earthy, medicinal and with more conventional caramel and vanilla notes. The finish pivots to olives and licorice with some tannins. Finally, it tastes like its proof. Overall, this is superb. It won't be for everybody but it is for me. It drinks so smoothly for the proof and the flavours keep me coming back for more.
Review by Jarek
Slightly sweet at first, dry on the finish. Strength OK.
Review by Jan.Caroni
Diesel & green bananas remind me of Caroni.
