The Manutea Tahiti VO South Pacific is a unique rum with a rich history and an exceptional flavor profile. This rum is crafted from pure cane juice grown, harvested, and pressed on the island of Tahaa, with fermentation taking place on the same island. The cane juice is then transported to Moorea, where it is distilled using a unique hybrid apparatus that combines elements of both alembic and column stills.
The resulting rum is a true expression of the endemic O Tahiti cane variety, with a flavor profile that is both aromatic and complex. The nose is just as impressive as the taste, with notes of aniseed and licorice-scented cane juice, as well as a hint of pepper. The woody notes emerge next, adding richness and depth to the rum, followed by a touch of vanilla on the lips.
As the rum is aerated, it becomes even more harmonious, with the cane fully assimilating the woody and vinous influences. The result is a concentrated, round, and vegetal perfume that is truly unforgettable.
This rum is aged for three years in bourbon and banyuls barrels, resulting in a unique flavor profile that combines notes of caramel and confit fruits. The aging process also results in a limited edition of just 200 bottles, making this rum a truly rare and special find.
