Mana'o Tahiti
A white agricole from Tahiti, not the Caribbean — that's the surprise here. Fresh green cane leads, wrapped in floral and lime notes, with a licorice/anise edge on the short finish. Several tasters catch fruit-brandy vibes (mirabelle, almond paste) and an olive-and-iodine saline streak. The nose runs hot with alcohol before it settles in the mouth. A distinctive terroir that splits opinion.
The community says- Fresh green cane
- Floral and citrus
- Keep in mind: Alcohol-heavy nose

How does Mana'o Tahiti taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Floral, cane-forward Tahitian white agricole A genuinely different white agricole — fresh cane, florals, lime, an anise finish. Fans love the terroir; others find the nose alcohol-heavy, the acidity sharp, and the finish too short.

This rum is smooth, the scent of sugarcane remains the main theme on the nose and palate. I find it a product of great quality, made with an ancestral variety of sugarcane. This young distillery has a bright future!

unpleasant acidity and bitterness
Review by Martin Augustin
It has strong fruity and floral notes on the nose. However, this is negatively overlaid by iodine and strong alcohol. The alcohol is then better integrated on the palate. Very fruity notes with lots of lime. The finish is surprisingly short.
Review by TheJona'Spirits
Tasting at Rhum Fest Paris 2025. 👃 Oh, nice vegetal note of sugarcane that seems typical of its terroir. Quite lively and peppery. I get aromas that are very much like fruit brandies as found a lot in Alsace, on mirabelle, also on quetsche. Then citrus notes on lime. Salty and spicy note. Nice balance. 😋 The same markers are found, with a quite present salty agricultural side. Apple alcohol like grappa, citrus, vegetal freshness of the cane, some peppery spices. ⛳ Warm, bitter and relatively dry. Agricultural side of the cane, iodine/saline combo, citrus (lime) and green olive too. Quite vegetal and fresh to the end. 💡+1pt, 78 > 79, nice typicity.

#4046 I'd say this one should be used in a mixer. Lots of floral notes once rested and the price tag is OK.

The nose clearly promises more...
Review by Maxime Clr 🇫🇷
Very nice agricole, my first test on Tahitian rums. Beautiful softness and roundness for this very vegetal rum, even floral with citrus notes like lime. Beautiful product with an aniseed finish! Top
Review by Godspeed
How does nobody pick up that the taste is pure white truffle? Also, I’m not a fan of truffle.
Review by Djehey
More classic and less balanced than the Rangiroa, it remains pleasant with a good fatness on the palate. However, the comparison with the agricoles from Guadeloupe and Martinique makes the positioning complicated for this price.
Review by Peterschall
Very nice floral and grassy Rhum Agricole with notes of tropical fruits like pineapple, banana and lime and a hint of cinnamon. Smell and taste suggest many ester compounds, probably due to longer fermentation.
Review by Émile Shevek
On the nose, matured fruits, vegetables, olives, and citrus. On the palate, it's a bit dry with vegetables, cane, tropical matured fruits, and pepper.
Review by Benoît Testagrossa
Canne à sucre très présente, ce rhum blanc a clairement une identité qui lui est propre ! Il a su se démarquer des rhum antillais. Rappelle l'eau-de-vie de fruits sans en tomber dans les travers. Il est également très floral. Très belle découverte ! Le nez est fortement marqué par l'alcool. Mais par la suite il s'intègre parfaitement dans les saveurs de ce rhum. En bouche, des saveurs de pâte d'amande émergent dans le tout. La finale est délicate... Un brin anisée
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
on the nose first nice fruity and floral after passion fruit and rose petals ... in the taste, the alcohol is then surprisingly present and rather only spicy and dry, from the fruit you do not get much unfortunately. in addition, a rather medicinal iodine note and a strange acidity that does not suit me so....auch in the daiquiri unfortunately overall rather flat and not particularly intense, rather only mineral and acidic ... the Manutea I like here much better.
Review by Xianut Trezz
La premiere impression fut pour le design soigné de la bouteille… la deuxieme fut pour ce parfum assez remarquable qui m’a mis « le rhum à la bouche »… oui cela embaume la canne fraiche, verte… mais j’y trouve un surprenant parfum de tomate confite… puis vint la déception du novice… la degustation trop rapide… dans un verre qui ne laisse pas respirer le breuvage. Cette fois j’y suis retourné en amateur… et je dois reconnaitre que si le goût ne me semble pas à la hauteur du nez, il est rond… l’alcool est bien équilibré. Ma tomate disparait en bouche mais se transforme en agrumes, piments et amandes. La final est moyenne et diminue trop vite…. Bien trop vite.
Review by ElReyTristan
Very nice discovery in white this Tahitian. It's not cheap but it changes from the usual markers on Guadeloupe or Martinique juices and even from Réunion. All proportions kept, it would be closer to some notes of clairins, especially the finish on Olive.
Review by caliphil
A beautiful discovery. I think Polynesia will only go for quality, refined stuff. Looking forward to the next ones.
Review by Albert Fred
A very good white rum, the sugarcane is very present, on the nose it reminds me of some rums from Réunion... But with a Martinican side... In short, a nice discovery, a good white rum from the other side of the planet.
Review by jeep
Not being a fan of white rums, I was very pleasantly surprised by this one. Quite soft on the palate with floral and fruity notes that stand out.
