It's cool to try a Grand Arome unaged. I like it very much. Also great as a mixer.
Review by Vincent D
Un Grand Arôme comme seul Savanna sait les faire. Aucun doute sur l'origine de ce rhum. L'olive est présente du nez à la finale. Beaucoup de fruits également. Une sensation de fermentation. C'est très agréable en ti-punch. Sympa nature, de temps en temps.
Review by Pavel Spacek
Good HERR, but too weak Rumy z destilerie Savanna jsou jedny z mych nejoblibenejsich. Doporucuji kazdemu vyzkouset zejmena vuce esterove kousky jako je Grand arome nebo HERR. Tolik ovoce v nekolika malo kapkach tekutiny jste dlouho necitili.
Review by Filip Šikula
Pěkná savana. Vůně přezrálého ovoce a lepidla. Celkově je vůně zajímavá a příjemná. Chuťově příjemné, ovocná sladkost s hezky integrovaným alkoholem. Je to ale zbytečně rozředěné což celkové zážitku ubírá na zajímavosti.

Review by Niko
Powerful and numerous aromas but not the most flattering for the tasting, it is not for all the palates... Very long finish on the olive obviously but also the pepper. Nickel in kitchen to boost a sauce.

"This is the older and better brother. What a fireworks for 40 percent. The abv really does not hinder it as much as the older one. At first a hint of Cajun BBQ chicken. This later transforms to pineapple and celery. Awesome"
