A blind sample from ander_s, many thanks for that! Spicy - licorice - some dried fruit and, above all, properly roasted. Super nose 😀 Mighty dry in the mouth. Very woody and spicy. Caramel and some dried fruit. A very good but indefinable artificial note hovers over it. Long and very spicy finish. An excellent rum, strong, dry and yet easy to drink. My blind guess is a continental Demerara matured at cask strength. Perhaps SWR, good origin. Edit: I was way off the mark there 😀😀😀😀Great stuff, must get in on the Savanna hype after all.

Unusually cloudy color. Had first thought if something went wrong here - but tastes impeccable... 🤓In the nose, a dense and dark sherry spice comes directly to the fore. There is also some tropical fruit and toasty cocoa associations. Very pleasant. On the palate, the sherry finish dominates. Spicy, toasty and dark. The classic Savanna DNA recedes into the background here. Pleasant alcohol strength. Those who like sherry will get their money's worth here. Only the rather short Abgabg clouds something the exciting overall package.

#4470 13.11.2023 A nice and fresh release with a very good price tag. Fruity with nice balance and medium intense profile. The palate is medium dry with a nice cherry touch. The finish is medium long and with some added chocolate. The empty glass has some faint leather notes and light caramel.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Nice substance, sherry finish not too dominant. Has something of red fruit jelly with dark chocolate and a little coffee. Not boring despite 46%!
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.
