Savanna Créol 2007
Orchard fruit leads here — pear and apple with a real Cognac-Calvados twist that had a few tasters guessing brandy blind. There's spice, dry oak, a whiff of soap and a candy-floss sweetness underneath. At nearly 62%, it's powerful but the alcohol sits well integrated. One reviewer calls it a "daily-sipper"; another found it too woody and dry.
The community says- Pear and apple fruit
- Cognac-Calvados character
- But: Dry and tannic

How does Savanna Créol 2007 taste?
Aggregated from 20 community reviews.
Dry agricole with a Cognac-Calvados twist Most love its Cognac-meets-Calvados character and balance; the alcohol is well-integrated. The catch: it's dry, tannic and can turn sharp-edged, and one taster wanted more Savanna agricole soul.

👃 Joli nez fruité et floral. Les arômes me rappelle ceux que l'on retrouve en rentrant dans une savonnerie artisanale. Multiples fruits du verger, canne à sucre confite, citron confit, fruits secs, raisins mûrs, épices chaudes, un peu de colle. Excellente intégration de l'alcool. 😋 La bouche est plus vive, épicée, pimentée, tannique et alcooleuse. C'est comme si on avait un blend d'Agricole, de Cognac et de Calvados. Fût rèche, amer et sec même si on garde du fruits, du verger et confit, avec un penchant vers les eaux de vie de fruits d'Alsace. Légère trace de solvants. ⛳ Débute sur une impression de réglisse salée, de canne à sucre sèche, de fût sec, épicé, cacaoté. Puis, noix de coco grillée, chaleur de l'alcool, astringence du fût, piment. Longue finale chaude. 🏆 Très bon rapport qualité prix à l'époque (70€), pour un rhum agricole vif, intense, avec une vraie identité, moyennement complexe avec un haut titrage alcoolique très bien intégré au nez et puissant, dans le bon sens du terme, en bouche.

somewhat alcoholic pungent, discreetly soapy on the nose, rather reminiscent of cognac, smoky, some cinnamon, apricot and pear and extremely woody on the nose.Taste also very woody and similar to Cognac, mainly pear, even more wood and tannins, in addition very astringent and alcoholic not particularly round but rather sharp-edged, something salty soapy and reminiscent of fruit bread in the finish and overall just unfortunately for my taste much too dry, woody and too little Savanna DNA. blind I would have said 80% Cognac Mixed with 20% Savanna.🙈
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
30.11.2019 A great afternoon and evening with friends, good food and of course, rum. Notes Medium dark in colour. Nose Lightly sweet, light wood, fruity, citrus, sugarcane, light citrus, grass. Palate Light wood, grass, citrus, lightly sweet, Agricole, faint strawberry, light earthy, medium dry. Finish Medium long, light wood, light strawberry, pear, faint caramel, vegetal, medium dry.
Review by Agricoler
Excellent Savanna Creol. I particularly like the apple notes. A really nice daily sipper. Only the finish leaves a little to be desired.
Review by Oliver
Super Spannend! Erinnert an Rum, Cognac und Calvados in einem. Alkohol sehr gut integriert. Absolute Empfehlung!
Review by DosenZorn
Direct comparison with RX16261 The nose here leans more towards yellow stone fruit. An amazing sweetness and at the same time wood and smoke. Everything together is perfectly balanced. Compared to the Japan Tribute, the typical Agricolet markers are almost as pronounced here. The clear difference in age is noticeable here. The pome fruit remains on the palate, but the Agricole is noticeable here. Just like the age before. Superbly balanced
Review by GigiMartini
Un rum molto piacevole al naso, molto intenso al palato, forse anche un po' troppo. Migliora la rotondità con acqua
Review by Frank
Eine fruchtig-holzigere Nase, getrocknete Früchte, wie etwa geschwefelte Aprikose und Kirsche. Ein Hauch Rotwein deutlich zum Cognac rüber kippend. Trocken, leicht rauchig und an Seifenpulver erinnernd. Es ist aber auch eine Süße wie von Zuckerwatte präsent. Wunderbare Spannung zwischen holzig-würzig, bitter-salzig und fruchtig-süß am Gaumen. Kommt sehr trocken, hat eine leicht Rotwein-Säure, wieder getrocknete Aprikose mit Brombeere. Vanille und Muskat meine ich auch zu finden. Dieses leicht seifige aus der Nase finde ich auch am Gaumen. Ein echt spannender Rum.
Review by Martin Spooner
Sweet fruity nose. Pear-like infusions. With spice. On the palate definitely pear, could be a Calvados. Powerful rum with plenty of aroma and bang. Great. Recommended buy while it's still available.
