Vagabond Spirits Savanna Silva Collection SVN 2003

Highly praised as a powerful, complex old Savanna with superb alcohol integration, deep dried-fruit and leather notes, polished wood and minty freshness, plus a very long, satisfying finish.

Community Top Voice
A very nice, old Savanna. The wood influence is, for my taste, still borderline. Dried fruits, peach, leather, and tea. I find the slight hint of mint very interesting, which probably comes from the TDL finish.

    How does Vagabond Spirits Savanna Silva Collection SVN 2003 taste?

    Heavy, woody, dried-fruit powerhouse
    Who is this rum for?

    If you enjoy intense, long-aged Savanna or TDL and don’t mind wood and tannins, this is a standout bottle; let it breathe and it really rewards slow, focused sipping.

    Not really suitable for

    Beginners, those sensitive to high ABV, or drinkers who dislike woody, tannic or slightly bitter finishes and expect a classic, clearly recognisable Savanna style.

    Auto-translated

    9:On the nose, heavy with varnish, rubber, roasted wood notes with nuts, toffee, biscuits, spicy, some metallic patina, citrus and dried fruits, peaches, fresh, minty, herbal sugar cane, dark with black tea, bump into our nosetrils. On aeration, the cane is flowery and vegetal, sweet with honey, the wood also sweet with caramelized notes, spicy with vanilla and allspice.Fruits like orange, apricot arise, some red fruits. 9:On the palate, the attack is delicious, creamy, a bit dry, with bourbon notes like peaches, citrus fruits, roasted wood notes with butterscotch, roasted nuts, pastry, sweet, spicy with vanilla, slightly salty, smoky, there are hints of toasted coconut.The rum is complex, as the sugar cane is flowery, herbal, fresh with tea.When the rum is oxidized, dried fruits, cherries and mango join the game.Medicinal notes give us a feeling of heaviness, with rubber, polish, some bitterness crawls in after a while, perhaps eucalyptus and the cane becomes candied. 8,9:The finish is long, dry and tannic, slightly industrial with rubber and tar, as different roasted wood notes, spicy and smoky, pair various fruits and candied cane, flowery, dark with black tea..

    The nose immediately reveals strong fruit molasses notes. I would guess a Grand Arome here, with a very small Herr influence. Creamy, pronounced but deliciously integrated alcohol, full-bodied and round. Really delicious, for the price I'll have to think about buying a bottle.

    Wow. Eine unfassbar einladende komplexe schwere Nase: Reifer Pfirsich, saftige Kirschen, Minze und Leder, etwas Lack und Gummireifen. Am Gaumen dann intensiv nach kräftigem english breakfast Pfirsich Eistee, Herzkirschen, Eukalyptus und Minze, karamellisierter Aprikose, dunkler Schokolade mit Meersalz, intensive aber nicht zu aufdringliche Tannine und ein schier endloser Abgang und eine leicht dreckiges Profil was dezent an Caroni erinnert. Vielleicht war das Finish ja nicht "nur" ein TDL sondern ein caroni? Wer weiß. Lecker Stoff auf alle Fälle! Edit: schon deutlich holziger und bitterer mittlerweile nochmal nüchtern verkostet, daher leichte Anpassung nach unten.
