This limited edition, with only 886 bottles produced, marks the 150th anniversary of the distillery, capturing a momentous piece of its storied history.
This rum boasts a distinctive aroma profile that includes notes of glue, vegetal nuances, peaches, pear, and a hint of wine. Its character is both fresh and vegetal, presenting an intriguing and memorable experience for the senses. On the palate, the Savanna 2007 Cognac Single Cask reveals a rich and varied array of flavors including oak, nail polish, grass, hay, and almond. With an ABV of 50.4%, it offers a full-bodied and complex tasting experience that will impress even the most discerning of rum enthusiasts.
As the rum opens up, it unveils a fresh and clear character, reminiscent of green apple and a sunny orchard. The aroma is evocative of a tropical and humid marketplace, teeming with ripe exotic fruits. This single cask release, a result of collaboration with Rum Nation's Fabio Rossi, encapsulates a perfect balance of fruity, herbal, and spicy notes, culminating in a sweet and spicy finish.
The Savanna distillery, built between 1948 and 1950 by Emile Hugot in Saint Paul, Réunion, relocated to the Bois-Rouge sugar factory in 1992. Here, the entire rum production process, from cultivation and harvesting of sugar cane to distillation and bottling, takes place. Rum from the Savanna distillery has gained considerable popularity, and this particular bottling is a testament to its growing acclaim.

Overall, the Savanna 2007 Cognac Single Cask #959 11yo is a fantastic and well-balanced Agricole rum. It was highly appreciated at the pre-party to Sweden Rumfest 2023 at Cane Rum Society in Stockholm. The nose is less rounded and more dry, offering light wood, peach, and an intriguing note of glue and nail polish. On the palate, it is quite funky with flavors of wood, dried fruits, and freshly cut grass. The finish is long but not particularly captivating. While it may not be the most indulgent rum, it is a fresh and vegetal Agricole with a distinct character, though some reviewers preferred other offerings from Savanna.
