The Savanna Distillery is located on Reunion Island . It was designed and built by Emile Hugot between 1948 and 1950. At the time, located in Saint Paul, it was annexed to the sugar refinery of the same name. In 1982, the Savanna Distillery acquired a distillation workshop whose production was only intended for the manufacture of light rum for export, following the signing of a major rum supply contract with a German client who was a leader in its market. For the Savanna Distillery, this acquisition was the trigger for the development of its rum technology, which, from that year onwards, increased the diversification and quality of its production. Today, the Savanna Distillery exports the majority of its rum production to professionals. Like many rum distilleries, the Savanna Distillery is equipped with discontinuous fermentation , also called the "mother tank" process, consisting of 8 100 m3 fermenters and all of its satellites. This discontinuity is synonymous with obtaining a high-quality product.
