The wine

A single cask Savanna (#218) distilled in 2012 and bottled in 2019, matured for six years in an HERR (High Ester Rum Reunion) cask, a rum with a high ester content that has undergone very long fermentation. The HERR cask in question was bottled in 2017 for the Bar Lamp and Shinanoya, Tokyo, which is why this edition is named HERR Japan Tribute. A limited edition of 647 bottles.

The distillery Savanna

Réunion Island. Distillery operational.

Built on the Bois-Rouge site in Saint-André in August 1992, near the eponymous sugar refinery whose cane sugar and molasses it uses to produce its rums, Savanna is a distillery with “open walls” overlooking the Indian Ocean. From the historic site of Saint-Paul, the distillery has kept a magnificent copper Savalle still, which it uses together with several stainless steel column stills and a pot still to produce a multitude of rums, including its Grand Arôme, whose fermentation lasts almost 15 days. When it comes to both its rhum agricole (cane juice) and its traditional rum (molasses), Savanna is one of few distilleries in the world to offer such a wide palette of aromas, recently honoured by various independent bottlers in releases such as Velier's Savanna 1999 Villa Paradisetto.
