Savanna Traditionnel Absolu No. 2 2024: celebrating Réunion rum
Savanna Traditionnel Absolu No. 2 2024 represents a milestone in the distillery's "Absolu" series: an edition created with the aim of exploring and promoting the excellence of traditional Réunion rums, combined with bold influences and selected refinements.
Savanna's goal is to offer an experience that goes beyond simple ageing: it is a blend of the oldest spirits, matured in ex-Cognac and ex-Muscatel casks, to which a special co-distillate called "HERR" (High Ester Rum) is added, giving it punch, complexity and vibrant aromatic expression.
The blend is the result of the expertise of master blender Thierry Grondin, who selected casks aged between 14 and 16 years for the traditional components, combined with an approximately 8-year-old HERR distillate, all rigorously refined to express a deep and structured aromatic profile.
The nose opens with hints of ripe red fruit, which quickly give way to toasted wood, spices, leather and dark liquorice. On the palate, the fruity attack evolves into a dry, woody and tannic body, with hints of burnt caramel, toasted nuts, bitter herbs and a finish that tends towards salty-mineral, with hints of black olive and more mature wood.
