In operation since 1870, the Savanna distillery perpetuates the tradition of rum and is now located on the Bois Rouge site on Reunion Island. This 5-year-old version comes from the blend of molasses rums aged 5 years in the tropics in ex-cognac barrels. We are on a deliciously spicy woody profile where vanilla and exotic aromas explode in the mouth.
Nose: Woody and spicy with notes of vanilla and exotic fruits
Palate: Lively, revealing a beautiful vanilla sweetness associated with a restrained woodiness.
Finish: Elegant with a nice aromatic balance.
They distill a unique variety of rums, among which the finest are reserved for Savanna bottlings: Traditional molasses rums, pure juice agricultural rums or exuberant Grands Arômes and High Esters rums. They have a main C20 column, an aroma revealing still, and the incredible Savalle copper column inherited from another time. They age their rums as close as possible to the Indian Ocean in a tropical chai of six cells, the most famous of which, the Chai Humide, is just separated from the waves by an old stone wall impregnated with salt from the sea spray.
