Kōloa Spice 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.
The rum is distilled 2 times at 160 – 180 ABV.
Appearance-This spice rum is a majestic tawny color with hues of golden rich heather, much lighter in the cloying viscosity than the other expressions of Kōloa Rums, due to the higher ABV at 44%. The legs are thin and evenly expressed around the glass.
Nose- Pleasantly balanced light cola, muted cinnamon and cacao notes with subtle scents of baked baklava, honey and freshly chopped walnuts.
Taste and Finish- This spice rum is dry and crisp on the palate, with upfront spices showing exactly like the nose, the additional flavor of deeply cooked caramel and a light finish of sarsaparilla.
Additional Tasting Notes- Kōloa Kauai Spice Rum is an adult’s version to the classic, overly sweetened spice rums typically found in this market. We recommend trying it in a classic rum swizzle or enjoy this in your everyday spice rum and coke.
