A 12 year old Reunion agricole from Savanna carrying a 1999 vintage, pressed from fresh sugar cane juice and aged in ex-Bourbon oak, bottled at a firm 46 percent in the Intense range.
Description
Savanna is a historic Reunion distillery that makes several distinct rums, and this Intense 1999 is from its cane juice line, distilled from fresh pressed sugar cane juice and aged twelve years in ex-Bourbon oak. Reunion sits outside the French-Caribbean appellations, so this is agricole in style rather than name.
Twelve years of warm climate ageing carries the spirit into a mature register, and the record points toward a fresh, lightly woody profile with honey, nutmeg, a faint chocolate note and fruit over the grassy cane core. Bottled at 46 percent, it sits at a focused sipping strength. A dry, characterful older Reunion agricole with maturity beyond its stated years.
