Savanna L’Absolu 2025

Savanna L'Absolu 2025 is a blend from Savanna on Reunion, a distillery unusual for making three rum families at once, cane juice agricole, traditional molasses rum and intensely funky high ester grand arome. This release draws on all three, bottled unsweetened at 58% for drinkers ready to step up in strength.

The combination gives real depth and structure. Dried fruit, dark chocolate, roasted wood and a distinctive Earl Grey tea note run through the nose and palate, with spice, a cognac like richness and slightly floral citrus, finishing long, dry and oaky. It is balanced and composed despite the proof, the grand arome lending funk and the molasses and agricole components rounding it out, a serious yet approachable pour. This suits anyone who enjoys Savanna's style or dry, powerful Foursquare leaning rums, equally good for neat enjoyment or slow contemplation, and a strong showcase of what a Reunion blend can do.
