Ciroc Mango 750ML is a grape-based flavored vodka infused with natural mango flavor, five-time distilled in the Cognac region of France at 35% ABV (70 proof). Unlike the vast major ity of vodkas on the market, Ciroc starts with fine French grapes sourced from the Gaillac and Cognac growing regions rather than grain, corn, or potatoes. That grape foundation delivers a noticeably smoother, slightly creamier texture that carries the tropical mango infusion without the cloying sweetness that plagues many flavored vodkas. Produced at Distillerie de Chevanceaux by Maison Villevert, the liquid undergoes cold fermentation followed by four column-still distillations and a final pass through a traditional copper pot still — a process borrowed from Cognac production itself.Tasting Notes:Aroma: Fresh crushed mango leads immediately, followed by ripe blood orange and a faint whisper of tropical pineapple. There is a subtle sweetness on the nose that stays restrained and fruit-forward rather than artificial.Taste: The entry is juicy mango at full volume — ripe, vibrant, and unmistakably tropical. At mid-palate, tart citrus peel and blood orange emerge and balance the sweetness, while the grape-based spirit provides a smooth, almost creamy backbone. The peak brings a delicate touch of vanilla that rounds out the fruit without overwhelming it.Finish: Medium in length with a clean, slightly tart mango fade and lingering citrus zest. The texture remains silky throughout, leaving no harsh burn or sticky residue.How to Drink Ciroc Mango:Ciroc Mango works exceptionally well over ice or topped with soda water and a squeeze of lime for a simple warm-weather serve. In a Mango Mule, the tropical fruit character amplifies ginger beer's spice while the grape-based smoothness keeps the drink balanced. It elevates a classic Cosmopolitan by replacing standard citrus vodka with mango richness, adding depth to the cranberry and lime juice. A Mango Martini — shaken with fresh lime and a splash of pineapple juice — lets the five-time distilled clarity shine while showcasing the vodka's natural fruit intensity.Best For: Summer cocktail parties and poolside entertaining Tropical-themed drink menus and tiki nights Brunch cocktails as a vodka upgrade in fruit-forward recipes Gifting to fans of premium flavored spirits Frequently Asked Questions:What does Ciroc Mango taste like?
