The Savanna 2002 Rhum Creol Agricole Single Cask #971 is a 7-year-old agricultural rum from the renowned Savanna distillery on Reunion Island. This rum is a unique and highly desirable expression of the distillery's expertise in producing "rhum agricole," or pure juice rum.
Distilled in 2002, the rum was aged in a single cask until it was bottled in 2010. During its time in the cask, it developed a complex and intriguing flavor profile that is both sweet and savory. The rum's concentrated and aromatic core is filled with notes of cooked cane juice, exotic spices, and a touch of medicinal eucalyptus. These flavors are balanced by the smooth, velvety texture of the rum, which is enhanced by the reduction to 46% alcohol.
The rum's unique personality is further enhanced by the use of ex-cognac and ex-calvados barrels for aging, which add layers of depth and complexity to the final product. The result is a rum that is both approachable and sophisticated, with a flavor profile that is far from the standards of traditional West Indian agricultural rum.
This limited edition rum was bottled in 2010, with only 730 numbered bottles produced from cask #971. Each bottle is a unique expression of the rum's concentrated and aromatic core, and a testament to the Savanna distillery's commitment to producing high-quality, artisanal rums.

The Savanna 2002 Rhum Creol Agricole Single Cask #971 is highly praised for its balance and approachability.
