Isautier Arrangé Mangue Caramélisée

Isautier is a long-running Reunion distillery, and this Arrange Mangue Caramelisee is a macerated arrange rather than a straight rum, a French-island tradition of steeping fruit in rum, here built on caramelised mango for a sweet, flavoured drink.

At 37% it is soft and clearly sweet, with caramelised mango, tropical fruit and caramel on the nose, a palate of ripe mango and candied fruit, and a finish that keeps the caramelised mango going. This is firmly a sweet, fruit-driven pour rather than a dry sipper, and it earns its place served cold on its own or stirred into cocktails, where the rich mango note adds an authentic tropical lift. An affordable, crowd-pleasing addition to the home bar, honest about its sweetness.
