Savanna Lontan Grand Arome Blanc 60th Anniversary LMDW
One taster calls it a "hybrid of tasty rum and mezcal," and that gets it right. This unaged Savanna Grand Arôme is all savory, vegetal punch: green olive, cucumber, brine, iodine and a fermented, overripe edge, with faint glue and light smoke underneath. Berry and tomato flicker through, but the herbal, medicinal side leads. Strange and umami-heavy — genuinely polarizing.

How does Savanna Lontan Grand Arome Blanc 60th Anniversary LMDW taste?
Aggregated from 26 community reviews.
Savory, olive-and-brine unaged funk bomb Loved by those chasing savory, funky whites — olive, cucumber, iodine and fermented fruit. One member called it "more on the vegetal side," missing Savanna's usual fruit. Not for everyone.
Fans of savory, high-ester whites who like clairin and mezcal
Anyone wanting sweet, easy fruit or a low-ABV sipper

#4561 19.01.2024 Got a set of samples from a former colleague in Sweden and today I'll give them a go. My tastebuds are still hyper sensitive, which can be both good and bad. Pretty good Grand Arôme with nice fruits and light esters on the nose alongside faint glue notes. The palate is well rounded, spicy and has nice berry and tomato notes. The finish is medium to long and oily with light herbs and medicinal notes. The empty glass has light chocolate and strawberry notes as well as faint smoke.

In the nose very similar to the Lontan tasted at the 11th GRF. Olive here in combination with some pickles and green pineapple.
Review by Timo Groeger
Hier ein Savanna Lontan. Trifft nicht völlig meinen Geschmack, ist aber trotzdem sehr gut. Nase ist sehr pflanzlich und Floral, viel Gurke und Olive. Am Gaumen dann auch sehr pflanzlich. Dieser Rum wirkt vergoren, überreif und pelzig.
Review by Jarek
Das hier ist ein sehr interessantes Profil. Etwas Frucht ist da, aber es überwiegen die herzhaften, pflanzlichen Noten, wie Olive, Gurke, Gras. Dazu auch etwas erdiges, vergorenes, Klebstoff. Leider nur 2cl abbekommen, würde mich ansonsten interessieren wie er sich in Cocktails macht.
Review by Serge
New Year's resolution: open rums from the cabinet gradually taste and evaluate again. Here is one of my absolute favorite unaged. Beautiful medicinal, smoky
Review by Mentalo
Tart herbs, strong medicinal notes (iodine), cucumber, olive, but also fruity notes (partly fermented, partly artificial). Very long, tart finish. Alcohol is well integrated. Definitely an interesting bottling
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
incredibly complex. the nose is subtly reminiscent of mezcal is slightly smoky medicinal and fresh vegetable after cucumber and olive ... Taste then goes further in the direction of fermented fruit and vegetables (kimchi and melon) but also medicinal bitter after iodine and then again creamy after Greek yogurt with honey with blueberries?! very crazy but exciting! umami of the finest.in the daiquiri actually comes through most likely the yogurt honey blueberry note. awesome! 🤤🫐🍯💨Update thanks to Michael Wagner: Red Bull blue edition blueberry flavor 🤣🤣🤣
Review by Stijn Zino
Great rum although missing some typical Savanna fruit. More on the vergetal side.

Read full review →This won't be for everyone but if you have looked into buying this then I would recommend you do. It certainly has some unique facets to it and whilst similar to other high ABV whites it has enough going on to be different. I enjoyed this more than the Clairin's...
