Distillerie de Savanna The Wid Island Edition 'Tree' 8 Year Old Rhum Traditionnel Vieux Reunion Island NV 0.7l

Distillerie de Savanna The Wid Island Edition 'Tree' 8 Year Old Rhum Traditionnel Vieux, bottled in 0.7 l, is a spirit born on the Île de la Réunion, a landscape of sugar cane growing under a bright sun and sea breeze, where local traditions meet a contemporary vision of slow maturation; it is a precise response to the call of tropical territories and a production philosophy that favors the raw material and a patiently managed maturation time, elements that give life to a reading of traditional rum that is at the same time measured and thoughtful; the history of Distillerie de Savanna is that of a house rooted in the island, capable of transforming inherited knowledge into a production aesthetic that seeks coherence between the character of the cane juice and the maturation in the barrel, without resorting to artifice but valorizing the continuity between tradition and progress; The production philosophy is based on an artisanal approach that respects time, avoids excessive use of throughout, and requires careful management of the aromatic profile to allow complexity to emerge without losing freshness, entrusting the wood and the local climate with a progressive dialogue with the distillate. The Wid Island Edition Tree stands out in the range for its identity markedly oriented towards slow evolution: the eight-year aging allows the old rum to develop an enveloping structure, where notes of vanilla, dried fruit, and citrus zest intertwine with spicy touches and a light trace of cocoa that lingers without weighing, offering a profile that invites a defined, never static, taste journey. On a sensorial level, the stylistic character lies somewhere between softness and persistence, with a velvety sweetness that supports a suffused minerality and a dynamic mouthfeel capable of accompanying a moment of gustatory meditation, without losing the typical freshness of the island or the balance between power and elegance. Within the range, The Wid Island Edition Tree represents a significant step forward for those seeking a mature interpretation of tradition, a chance to compare various levels of maturation, and a window into the identity of Distillerie de Savanna as a place where terroir, method, and time meet to deliver an authentic and memorable narrative to the glass. In keeping with the STELT positioning, this rum encourages conscious consumption, designed to transform tasting into an experience of territory, culture, and style.
