Product Overview
Distilled, blended and bottled by Kōloa Rum Company Kalaheo, Kauaʻi, Hawaiʻi
Kōloa Dark Rum is made from pure cane sugar, distilled in an impressive vintage 1,210 gallon, steam-powered copper pot still and cut with filtered water from the ancient Mount Waiʻaleʻale.
In order to create Kōloa Dark Rum, Gunter infuses the rum with a completely unique set of herbs and spices, which gives the rum its signature deep mahogany color, and contribues notes of crème brûlée, vanilla and caramelized oranges to the rum. Kōloa Dark Rum earned the Gold Medal at the Miami Rum Renissance Festival in 2011, where it was named "Best in Class."
Appearance: 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 colored legs.
Nose: Kōloa Dark Rum has a robustly vanilla nose that envelopes the perimeter of the glass, upon further and closer whiffs of this aromatic vanilla behemoth subtler notes of dark semi-sweet chocolate, fresh brewed espresso and chocolate cupcakes arrive to round out the olfactory experience.
Taste and Finish: This vanilla-driven dark rum sings from the nose to the glass exactly. It presents itself with robust flavors of vanilla, dark semi-sweet chocolate and lightly finishes with espresso, all encompassed within a dry, highly flavorful dark rum.
