The Manutea Tahiti White Rum is a premium spirit made from 100% pure Polynesian cane juice, specifically from the red cane of the O'Tahiti variety grown on the island of Tahaa. It is then transported and distilled in Moorea, resulting in a unique and delicate flavor profile. The rum is matured for 3 months and slowly reduced before being bottled.
On the nose, the rum is radiant and open, with a delightful aromatic breadth. The initial vegetal notes are reminiscent of fresh lemon basil and other herbs, leading to a generous cane flavor with a perfumed fermentation that is not overly acidic, but rather floral and fruity. The spices are soft, with a hint of melted pepper in the candied bagasse. Aeration reveals a touch of copper, followed by a silky cane with a fine fabric-like fiber. The finish is long-lasting, with a marron glace and cane sugar roundness, and a hint of mischievous acidity in the form of fine yellow lemon bubbles.
On the palate, the rum is round and intense, with a slightly peppery cane fiber. The fragrant fermentation and vegetal aspect are still present, with a sweetness reminiscent of a tender, finely peppered artichoke. The exotic fruit brandy gives a nice impression of amplitude, while the anise and liquorice add precision.
This white rum is perfect for sipping neat or as a ti punch and can also be used as a base for successful cocktails. The finish is long-lasting, with a liquorice note that settles in for a long time, accompanied by a brandy of cane and exotic fruits. For a Polynesian touch, add a few drops of passion fruit or finely grated fresh ginger.
Manutea is renowned for its high-quality spirits, and this white rum is no exception. The meticulous process of selecting the finest cane and the careful distillation in Moorea ensures a premium product that stands out in the world of rum.
