Manutea Rhum Vieux Agricole VO
Most tasters came in expecting a grassy agricole and got fruit instead — pear, raisin, banana, a honeyed softness that surprised more than one of them. There's licorice and anise running through it, with light wood and vanilla behind. A couple noted the alcohol shows on the nose, but at 43% it stays gentle and easy. One member suspected a little sugar was added.

- Easy at 43%
- Keep in mind: Alcohol on nose

Oh man, these rums from Fiji are pretty awesome, really tasty. It's mostly fruity, which I didn't really expect, but still a very delicious rum, I like it 100%. A top-notch one :)

Tasting at Rhum Fest Paris 2025. 👃 & 😋 Combination of endemic sugarcane, honeyed sweetness, candied fruits, dried and orchard fruits. Slight freshness on licorice, soft vanilla wood. ⛳ A bit more nuts, toasted wood, oak, licorice. The sugarcane always there, candied, a bit of tobacco and green tea. 💡 A very nice VO, pleasant and smooth.
Review by Morgan Garet
Rum tasting fest therefore incomplete... High-quality VO! Vanilla, wood and spice blend perfectly in this juice. I'd love to taste it again under better conditions.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
This one was a huge surprise for me. I like to try new things and this one was new. A light yet really well made rum with a really good price tag. Fresh and floral with light fruit. The spices and light wood fits really well with the rest and I like the licorice on the profile.
Review by Sebastian Kornett
Wouldn't have thought it was an Agricole. Very fruity. Maybe I was helped by sugar
Review by BnBrt
Nose a little disappointing, I can't identify much and I find the alcohol very present. Pleasant on the palate, with minty notes and a strong aniseed flavour. Short finish.
