Aroma visualization from community tastings
The Pearl of Mauritius
Tasters land in two camps here: some find it a fun "ideale Dessert" pour, others taste it as artificial and walk away let down. Either way the picture is consistent — heavy hazelnut, vanilla and sweetness, with a synthetic, candied edge a few people compared to chocolate-covered banana. The hazelnut-and-vanilla macerate is firmly the star, not the molasses underneath.
- Strong hazelnut
- Vanilla-forward
- Easy dessert sipper

How does The Pearl of Mauritius taste?
Aggregated from 41 community reviews.
Very sweet, hazelnut dessert spirit Hazelnut and vanilla over a lot of sugar. Sweet-tooth drinkers find it a nice dessert pour; anyone wanting a real rum reads it as artificial and flavored.

Review by Strassi 🇦🇹
Geschmack bestätigt was der Geruch befürchten ließ… sehr künstlicher Geschmack, sehr nach Haselnuss, sehr enttäuschend, überhaupt nicht was ich mir von einem Rum erwarte… Zuckergehalt lt. meiner Messung ca. 34 g/lit.

Zaujímavý orieškový rum
Review by Michael Janek
6.3. 2025 Zverinova ve vůni naprosto přezrálý banány, který jsou oflambovany i se slupkou, sladka umělá vůně v chuti cítím banánek v čokoládě, strašně uměle sladký

"Für Fans von süßen Dessertspirituosen sehr geeignet. Wer ungesüßte Rums schätzt sollte hier nicht zugreifen. Die Mazerate Haselnuss und Vanille sind im Vordergrund."Read full review →
