Famille Ricci Savanna Rare Single Cask SVN HGT 2019

Sipped neat, this is Savanna funk in full swing — overripe strawberry and juicy pineapple up front, then a hard turn into green olives and briny sea-salt on a long, oily finish. Light vanilla oak sits underneath and stays out of the way. At 55.5% the ester punch is loud but well integrated. A blend of three Savanna whites (Herr, Grand Arôme, Traditionnel), and it drinks like it.

Tasted several times at Rhum Fest 2026, first during the Ricci line-up and then in the afternoon after a meal + coffee bean. I bought a bottle, a Savanna of this kind at 100€ just doesn’t exist anymore. 👃 Lots of fermented fruits typical of the distillery, you won’t be disappointed. Overripe strawberries, juicy and very ripe pineapple, a hint of candied citrus. Superb Savanna esters that lean towards seaside fishiness. Also fresh, island spices, the characteristic olive note (darker than green?), a slight vanilla oak just enough not to overpower the fermented and briny aspect. 😋 Wow, really very good. Here we have a blend very similar to the well-known Th1. No need to elaborate, the aromas from the nose are found as delicious flavors on the palate. Solvent-like and varnished esters. ⛳ Long as you’d expect, esterified, salty, briny, fermented, with a little touch of vanilla sweetness. 📝 In 2019, Morgan blended 3 signature white rums from the renowned Savanna distillery: a Herr (High Ester Rum Reunion), a Grand Arôme, and a Traditionnel. Then this blend aged for 7 years in ex-Bourbon casks under Mediterranean climate on the Côte d'Azur. 💡 A true high ester, sitting between a TH1 LMDW, a Herrline 2, and the cask strength blend from Chais Saint Éloi. I even find some similarities with Forêt and 10 years wet warehouse.

Tasted at Rhumfest Paris 2026. Like every year, we had a really nice lineup at this booth. This is one of the bottles I liked the most. A blend of 3 Savanna rums, very fruity with strawberry and pineapple notes, plus a touch of esters and olive. A more than interesting value for money!

Goûté à l'occasion du Rhum Fest Paris 2026. Des fruits, des fruits et encore des fruits. De la fraise, de l'ananas. Trop mûrs. Ce rhum mériterait un peu plus de temps qu'une passage éclair en festival. Il pa beaucoup plu.

Après un grosse journée de travaux je vais goûté ce Savanna, c'est mon premier. Au Nez c'est fruité, on sent bien la fraise. Au goût toujours de la fraise mais ensuite viens l'olive. La finale est très longue, plus sur un goût d'olive. Pour un premier essai je valide c'est super bon , je ressent mon verre encore de la fraise. Un petit plus positif la bouteille est vraiment belle
