Manutea Très Vieux Rhum Agricole VSOP 2015
Anyone curious about gentle, dessert-leaning agricole will get on with this Tahitian column-still bottle. The nose is all vanilla, cane and florals; the palate turns toward anise, tonka and soft wood, with a plummy, rounded feel. Several tasters call it gourmand and easy, though a couple found it simple and a bit flat once you go looking for depth.
The community says- Vanilla-cane nose
- Round, easy palate
- Can feel simple

Soft, vanilla-anise agricole, easy but simple Pleasant, vanilla-and-anise agricole that goes down easy. Fans find it round and gourmand; others feel there's "not a lot going on," especially if you're used to cask strength.

Review by TheJackDrop
Super sympa ! Clairement un rhum pour les amateurs, ou les débutants, on a de la vanille, de la canne, de l’anis. Le nez est super vanille, la bouche plutôt sur l’anis. La finale est un peu courte mais bon, c’est super gourmand et facile à boire.
Review by Bowel Emptier
I really don’t feel like there’s much going on here. It’s very straightforward with more woody and spice notes. It has a nice floral smell which is fairly round but the taste fell flat for me. Maybe I’m just spoiled with tasting cask strength stuff.
Review by BnBrt
Pleasant rum, I find the markers of manutea VO. A pastry rum, well rounded in the mouth. Long finish for this alcohol level.
Review by Big Greasy Daddy
It’s just ok. It’s not bad, just not a lot going on. Leans towards the aged wood characteristics but the spirit itself seems pretty simple.
