Introducing the exquisite Savanna 2006 Single Cask #490, an 11-year-old rum from the renowned Savanna distillery in Réunion. This exceptional "Staff Selection 2018" release is a limited edition of 661 bottles, each one numbered, making it a truly unique and rare find.
Crafted from the finest molasses using a Column Still technique, this rum has been aged to perfection for 11 years in ex-Cognac cask #490. The captivating aroma is a blend of refreshing mint, complex woody and medicinal tones, robust tobacco, and a subtle hint of green pepper.
The palate is a true delight, with a pepper-forward profile that seamlessly transitions into comforting tones of caramel and nutmeg, with a touch of salty intrigue. The bold tobacco flavor adds an impressive depth to each sip, while the oily texture leaves a lingering aftertaste of slightly burned caramel with a medium finish adorned by persistent pepper notes.
This exceptional rum is a true testament to the skill and craftsmanship of the Savanna distillery. With its unique flavor profile and limited availability, the Savanna 2006 Single Cask #490 is a must-have for any serious collector or rum enthusiast.

The Savanna 2006 Single Cask #490 presents an intriguing and complex profile. Reviewers appreciate its dark, toasty, and intense nose with an oily, peppery character. The palate is warm and spicy, with notes of caramel and a touch of citrus. However, some find the finish to be a bit too peppery and lacking in balance.
