Savanna 2020 Le Must Réunion Island

Goldglänzendes Bernstein im Glas.
In der Nase geheimnisvoll und mystisch. Duftende Schwaden werden aus dem Cirque Salazie nach Nord-Osten geblasen und Du saugst sie auf. Kandierte Früchte, in Karamell getunkte Holzwolle , Gewürze und getrocknete Kräuter, um nur Einige zu nennen.
Am Gaumen mystisch und vertraut. Nun verlierst Du dich endgültig im nebligen Dschungel, dem Etikett gleich. Karamell durchdringt den Nebel und weitere leckere Aromen folgen. Gebratene tropische Früchte, Banane, Mangos und auch solche die wir nicht kennen werden auf getoasteten Holzbrettern serviert und zeigen ihre beste Seite.
Im Abgang satt und mittellang. Früchte und Karamell bleiben etwas länger und der Nebel lichtet sich allmählich.
Ein durchaus gelungener Rum der Freude macht. Für Einsteiger und Geniesser.

Golden amber in the glass.
Mysterious and mystical on the nose. Fragrant swaths are blown from Cirque Salazie to the north-east and you absorb them. Candied fruits, wood shavings dipped in caramel , spices and dried herbs to name a few.
Mystical and familiar on the palate. Now you finally lose yourself in the misty jungle, like the label. Caramel pierces the mist and more delicious flavors follow. Roasted tropical fruits, banana, mangoes and even those we don't know are served on toasted wooden boards and show their best side.
The finish is lush and medium in length. Fruits and caramel linger a bit longer and the fog gradually lifts.
A thoroughly successful rum that is a pleasure to drink. For beginners and connoisseurs.

im nosing this right now, waiting because it have to sit in the glass, 45% abv ...
interesting winey aroma, also some hint of liquorice, from the nose you know is dry,
and in the mouth it s dry like most agricole rhums i tried, but ok this is traditionnel,
so it s a molasses distillate, really it s like drinking some good cognac or maybe irish whiskey,
this wineish flavour, some oak, again a little hint of anis/liquorice, interesting rum,
i know it s not the best they have but (for me) is worth the money spent (around 80 euro)
drinking it more another day and you ll discover more flavors, of course some vanilla
and a little bit of caramel, accompany it with a good (medium strength) cigar if
you smoke, very nice experience ...

Like a lot of French Rhum, tends to taste a bit like cognac or whisky. Mainly because it aged on oak casks probably. In my opinion lacks a bit in fruitiness or sweetness
