To Koloa Rum Company
"Very sweet, respectively, too sweet for a distillate, which was created only by storage in the (dry) barrel. Taste okay, although of course very sugary and therefore rather to be considered as a "bottled cocktail"."
"Banana on the nose, while the taste is more like dark chocolate. Feels like it can make good old fashion with chocolate bitters. Average with pinneaple juice."
"I am a novice and, through a recommendation, decided to start with this rum. It has nice vanilla overtones which I enjoy mixed with Coke Zero. At around $35, it is my current go-to as I branch out and try other types of rum."
"Has a heavy vanilla smell and taste with hints of chocolate and spices. Great for mixing"
