Koloa Rum Company Koloa Kaua‘i Dark 40%

RX4374 Good Pot Still Rum Under 50€
“Vanilla and chocolate with sweet undertones.”

Koloa Kaua‘i Dark Rum, produced by the Koloa Rum Company in the USA, is crafted from molasses and distilled in a pot still with a 40% ABV. This dark rum is characterized by a warmly aromatic profile featuring dominant vanilla, chocolate, and citrus notes, followed by hints of brown sugar and caramel. It is well-received for mixing in cocktails or enjoyed over ice. While praised for its rich vanilla and chocolate flavors, some find it excessively sweet, resembling a "bottled cocktail." Ideal for those with a sweet tooth or beginners exploring rum, it’s often enjoyed with mixers like Coke or pineapple juice. Priced around $35, it offers an accessible introduction to flavored rums.

“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".”
