last year’s Savanna Masterclass led to more than a tasting. Your notes that evening helped make the 17-year RumX release happen.
So we’re doing it again.
The details
When: 25 September 2026, 7:30 pm CET (UTC+1). The eve of Whisky Live Paris.
Where: Online via Google Meet, in English.
Host: Samuel Pitarch, the head behind Savanna. Same as last year.
Set: 7 Savanna rums at 2 cl each, shipped to you before the call.
Seats: 45, first come, first served.
Samuel will talk about the distillery, the casks and the decisions behind the blends. Bring your questions. Last year they went well past the official end.
A small add-on before we start
Your set contains one extra 1 cl unreleased cask sample. A potential RumX community bottling from a different distillery. Not Savanna. I’m keeping the name to myself for now.
We meet at 7 pm, half an hour before the Masterclass, taste it together, and those of you on the call decide whether it becomes a RumX co-bottling.
19.99 € per set, plus shipping
Last year the sets were free and I bottled and packed everything myself. That doesn’t scale. This time Armagnac.de handles the samples and the packing.
Together with Savanna and Armagnac.de we got the set down to 19.99 €. 7 Savanna rums plus the extra. For what’s in the box, I think that’s more than fair. Shipping within the EU is added at checkout.
Thanks for the info. That’s a nice thing once again. Unfortunately I won’t be able to make it, so I’m skipping this and hoping everyone has a great round with a full number of participants have fun
Edit. I ended up ordering it after all since it was available for so long… Great selection. Unfortunately I wasn’t quite up for listening, and trying the RX sample was enough for me. Thank you very much for that @Oliver
Wow, absolutely awesome, thanks for the opportunity! I ordered two sets for @Thunderbird & me, a great reason for a personal meetup to enjoy and try them together
I’m really torn… The offer is great and I had a lot of fun last time… But since I don’t really have the Savanna profile in my top 3, I’ll let someone else have the spot. Have fun and thanks for the offer
PS: 7:00 p.m. is back to absolute kids’ evening routine time with dinner, bathing, grumpy tired tantrums, etc… It’s hard to enjoy and listen at that time
I’m also a bit sad that I can’t take part and experience something like this with you. That said, I’m confident you’ll discover an exciting bottling for the community there.
No. We did that back then. But that noticeably reduces participation rates during the masterclass. However, the primary goal is active exchange between all participants and the masterclass host. That’s why it’s only a live experience.
