 ... the mandarin, combined with the tartness of oranges, giving it an authentic flavour. Obviously, the fact that it is vodka based means that the overpowering flavour of alcohol soon creeps in, but this is to be expected. 2. It is most definatley alcoholic. No messing about with subtle flavours, it's whoosh with the mandarin then almost immediatley the burn of vodka. Whilst the flavour is pleasant, somehow the vodka seems more rough than normal Absolut, much harsher on the throat. This detracts from the experience...more

Absolut Mandarin is yet another flavoured vodka of the Absolut range. I often go to Revolution, the vodka bar chain, and they use Absolut as the base of all their flavoured vodkas. This, however, is from Absolut themselves. How does it rate when compared to the sublime Alpine Chocolate Vodka of those funky red bars? Well, there are two things that you pick up immediatley on tasting it; 1. It does taste very much like mandarins.

Premium Review Absolut Mandarin Vodka: good flavour & not too sweet (131 words)

The vodka is good, I was pleasantly surprised that the mandarin flavour was realistic and not too sweet. It is a true mandarin taste, rather than just orange. mix with Absolut Citron to have a citrus burst! As usual with Absolut, you can taste the quality in the vodka. It is much smoother, less artificial and more pleasant to drink than other cheaper brands. If your previous experience of vodaka has been mixed with coke or orange juice, then you don't really know vodka.
