Savanna Intense Port Finish 1999
The port finish is the twist you'd expect to lead here, but most tasters found it sitting quietly in the background. What you get is a "really nice traditional savanna": candied cherry, red berries and raisins up front, then leather, light wood, cinnamon and a hint of black tea. One reviewer clocked it as tasting almost like an aging agricole. Softer and sweeter than Savanna's wilder ester bombs.
The community says- Candied cherry
- Dried fruit, spice
- Faint port influence

The look inside the bottle
How does Savanna Intense Port Finish 1999 taste?
Aggregated from 20 community reviews.
Easy, cherry-and-spice traditional Savanna sipper Well-liked as an easy Savanna sipper — cherry, spice and dried fruit with a gentle port lean. A few felt the port stays too faint and the finish runs short.

Port Cask hat seine süßen Spuren hinterlassen. Rote Früchte, Rosinen, das Ganze harmoniert mal mehr, mal weniger mit dem Grande Aroma Profil. Ein paar Prozente hätten dem Rum gut getan. Unter dem Strich ein easy Sipper für diejenigen, die auf eher süßere - ungezuckerte - Rums stehen.
Review by Pavel Spacek
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.

A really nice traditional savanna
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
easy sipping Savanna. Port Einfluss ist nicht zu dominant. Ledersattel, kandierte Kirsche, Zimt, Piment und Minz-Schwarztee. sehr entspannt.

Review by Michal S
Trochu zklamání. Ve vůni se objevují ovoce a dřevo, v chuti ze začátku sladkost, která přechází do opečených a kožených tónů, vliv portského není příliš výrazný. Dochuť je relativně krátká a celkově se dají najít zajímavější kousky.

Pavel Špaček degu kalendář 4 2024 Velmi slušná tradiční Savanna, žádná divočinka - kontinentální ovoce, koření, dřevo, lehká vegetace, port finiš tady není zvlášť výrazný, ale řekl bych, že profil přivedl na sladší stranu.
