"Incredibly beautiful bottling from Tahiti. Overripe banana, blackberry, vanilla pulp and dark chocolate and caramel candy with salt and coffee, plus a good dose of sugar ear, honey and tobacco. Alcohol is very well integrated and extremely complex and long lasting! Absolute benchmark underdog bottling at a very good price from Tahiti💯."

"Na ja, da gibt es weitaus bessere Rums mit 58% ABV. Dieser hier sehr holzig in der Nade, außerdem ist noch Minze und gebrannten Zucker zu erkennen. Am Gaumen dann überwiegend Lakritze, aber auch Minze und Zucker. Alkohol doch zu sehr zu spüren."

"I've also never had a Manutea or a rum from Tahiti in general in my glass. Nose: Sweet, fruity and spicy. Scented peach with lemon and a hint of fresh mint. In addition, soft cream toffee with vanilla, slightly chocolaty. In my opinion, the sweet wine barrel is clearly present. Overall, however, very pleasant on the nose. 8.0 Palate: Sweet, spicy and fruity. Peach at the front, then clearly spicy, with pepper, salt, nutmeg and a little caraway. Now sweet again, with soft liquorice and chocolate. Lemon zest brings acidity and bitter notes, but also fruitiness. Swings constantly back and forth between sweet, bitter, citrus fruit and chocolatey texture. A little green at the back. Too unstructured for me. 7,4"
