"Muss man mögen" is how one member sums it up, and that's fair. Salty olives and floral raspberry hit the nose hard, then the palate turns spicy, herbal and mineral — brown sugar, lime peel, a bacon-y, almost medicinal edge. At 67% raw and cask-strength, it burns. Several tasters love it in cocktails; only a few find it balanced enough to sip.

How does Savanna Créol Straight 2019 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Intense, olive-and-herb Reunion blanc, best mixed Most rate it a fun, intense Savanna blanc — wild and characterful in a daiquiri. The caveat: raw, unbalanced and scorching neat, and the olive-and-bacon notes aren't for everyone.

This Savanna Créol Straight comes from the 2018 harvest and was bottled in May 2019 after being distilled in the Savalle column at the distillery in Reunion. It’s a Brut de Colonne without any reduction limited to 1350 bottles. Overall a very special Agricole Blanc (in a good way) compared to the ones from the Caribbean.

An intensely salty olive nose almost overwhelms you. Then a bit of sweetened raspberry comes in. On the palate, brown sugar, herbs, pepper, some sour lime and bacon dominate. The finish is long and bacon-y. You have to like it. Definitely not my thing. Olive on the nose and bacon in the taste are too intense and negatively noticeable.
Review by Mirco
The nose shows olive notes, a bit of floral sweetness, and a slightly rubbery undertone. On the palate, powerful and edgy with brown sugar, lime, and vegetal accents accompanied by a mineral sharpness. The finish is spicy and dry but feels quite raw and somewhat unbalanced. A distinctive Grand Arôme style that offers more edges than curves.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Raspberry on the nose without end at the beginning, in addition comes later something olive and slightly vegetable notes. very intense and concentrated.geschmacklich then a blast from simultaneously salty, bitter and sweet flavors bit like ricola candy with berry flavor, plus something smoky bacon and floral. In the finish, it is then personally too metallic metallic and also somewhat alcoholic to me purely what is also no wonder at 67%. in the daiquiri he makes also not quite as ne good figure as the 52% creol which was also more harmonious to me overall and has liked better. nevertheless exciting!

#7035 12.07.2026 Having a relaxing day without any training and basically just slouching on the couch. Watching a few older Steven Segal movies on Amazon Prime. Price to quality a very good rum in my mind. Medium intense and fruity with some olive, salt, herbs, vegetal and mineral notes.
Review by Frank
Hui, if you know what you're getting into, the nose is exciting and interesting.... very fruity, very artificial, very intense. First, an alcoholic honey sweetness towards mead. Fermented fruit, almost vinegar. There's a mix of grape, yellow plum and some lychee with a medicinal overtone. Distinctly veg towards olive and saffron at the back.Surprisingly spicy-smoky-fruity-sweet on the palate. Lime zest with an herbal green twist. Something like mace and saffron, bitter.Very interesting at the end.
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 Lukas Jäger
Tasted in the Savanna Tasting at the 11th GRF and perhaps the best of the line-up. Times quite exciting, but also no highlight in the field of white rum.
Review by samuel cutullic
One of the most beautiful revelations of the rum fest. Nice edition with real pleasure to taste despite the conditions of the fair. Thanks Savanna.
Review by Harald
Smell: Sour berry grits with blackberries and currants ... Sugar cane juice ... ... and anise and Indian spices. Taste: Spicy hot in the mouth, while slightly sweet. When swallowed extremely spicy, alcoholic and spicy. Very strong highly aromatic and intense flavor. Aromas of plant sap and herbs with anise, also slightly sweet and fruity (berries). In terms of taste, a typical Rhum Agricole. Finish: Very long, intensely spicy, medicinal-herbal, alcoholic and dry. Dry astringent aftertaste. After some time intense licorice. Burns extremely la

Expert review by The Dunder Hut
Unfortunately the re tasting of this wasnt as nice as i remembered it. It is still pretty good and a solid savanna, but alas, i have to go down a bit. These unaged Savanna are fun in cocktails, but for much more i struggle to see it. They still become king in a cask!
