Rivière du Mât Arrangé - Vanille des Tropiques

Best over a cube of ice on a warm day, this Reunion arrangé is all vanilla and sweet cream toffee. A couple of tasters found it refreshing sipped slow with ice or a slice of lemon; more found it cloying, with one member flagging the vanilla as "overpowering." At 35% it barely reads as rum — think sweet vanilla infusion first, spirit second.

Écoeurant, tant au nez qu'en bouche. C'est tellement sucré ! Trois glaçons sont nécessaires pour diluer le tout. Franchement, c'est une tannée de devoir boire cette boisson. Pourquoi ces rhums arrangés sont ils aussi sucrés ???
