Tasting Notes
- Region Hawaii
- Spirit Type Rum
Details
This dark rum is a genuinely deep chocolate brown that rolls with a cloying viscosity around the glass, developing into thick slowly rolling light black coffee coloured legs.
The nose is robust with vanilla that envelopes the glass perimeter. Upon closer whiffs of this aromatic vanilla behemoth, subtler notes of dark, semi-sweet chocolate, fresh brewed espresso and chocolate cupcakes round out the olfactory experience.
This vanilla driven dark rum sings from the nose to the glass exactly as it presents itself, with robust flavors of vanilla, dark, semi-sweet chocolate and lightly finished with espresso. All encompassed within a dry, highly flavorful dark rum.

Distilled in a vintage copper-pot still, using only the finest local ingredients. Hawaiian cane sugar, pure mountain rainwater and much Aloha come together to produce single-batch rums with remarkably rich flavours and smoothness that capture the essence of the Garden Isle. Koloa Rum Company was founded to create world-class Hawaiian Rum. We were the first distillery to be licensed on the island of Kauai, where sugarcane production has been a traditional way of life. Our first batch of Premium Hawaiian Rum was distilled and bottled in September 2009, which coincided with the opening of our Tasting Room and Company Store at Kilohana Plantation in Lihue.
