Absolut Mandrin was the fourth flavour to be released by the Absolut brand, just 20 years after their original Absolut Vodka entered the market. With the popularity of orange and mandarins around the world, this flavour was a clear winner from the outset. Unlike many flavoured spirits, which use unnatural flavours or added sugars to achieve their flavour, Absolut Mandrin is 100% natural, with no added sugars. Colour: clear. Aroma: Fresh bouquet charged with the citrus scents of oranges and mandarins. Floral notes complete the set of aromas. Taste: Soft and smooth on the palate, with hints of ripe oranges, mandarin, and some orange peel. Crisp and balanced with a long and tangy finish.
