Savanna 57 Blanc HERR 2018
Ester-hunters who also want fruit will get the most out of this unaged Savanna HERR. Think exploding esters, pineapple and strawberry, plus a real gummy-bear/hard-candy note several tasters flag, and a quirky tomato edge more than one person swears is "Heinz." At 57% it runs hot and a little unbalanced neat, but shines in a daiquiri.
The community says- Big fruity esters
- Gummy-candy aroma
- Hot, burning neat

How does Savanna 57 Blanc HERR 2018 taste?
Aggregated from 19 community reviews.
Fruity, high-ester agricole; a daiquiri star Loved by ester and agricole fans for its wild fruit and gummy-candy character. Great mixed; neat it's hot and a bit unbalanced, and one recent batch reads synthetic.

Review by John Coffey
Splendid. Just a few degrees short of the slap... But the HERR is sublime anyway
Review by Florent Barbieux
Un rhum extrêmement expressifs. Énormément d esters, des fruits tropicaux bien présents et un fort parfum de fermentation. Une vrai claque au nez ! En revanche la bouche est trop mordant, presque brûlante. Rhul déséquilibré. Note moyenne pour le moment qui pourrait basculer sur une bonne note (voire très bonne) si l aération calme le feu de ce rhum.

This was our second Savanna of the evening and I really liked this one. You're not in doubt that you have an Agricole with some nice ester exploding on your palate. There is also tomato in there and I'd go as far as saying it was Heinz 😂
Review by Thunderbird
Genau so muss ein frischer Savanna HERR schmecken… pur und vor allem als Mixer absolut top! Ich liebe neben den Estern einfach dieses Gummibärchen-Aroma. Sicherlich kein Rum für jeden Tag, aber momentan, bei dem Wetter im Daiquiri 🤩! Purer Genuss!
Review by Montana
An incredibly fruity smell, a lot of ester, ice candy, alcohol.The taste is also very fruity, somewhat sweet, slightly alcoholic burning.Something very own and special...
Review by Piotr Ignasiak
An interesting agricole, it doesn't have the dominant earthy and licorice notes that I got from my previous experiences with this type. Instead it's quite fruity and also has a taste of grilled vegetables. There is also a very strong tomato note which I saw Kevin comment on. It is a bit quirky for me. Thanks Alex for sharing a sample with me.
