Koloa Cacao Chocolate Flavored Rum

Kōloa Kaua'i Cacao Rum is the most delicious argument for Hawaiian rum you'll ever taste — a genuine collaboration between two of Kauai's most celebrated producers that puts island terroir front and center. Kōloa Rum Company partnered with Lydgate Farms — an award-winning fifth generation Kauai family farm recognized for producing some of the finest chocolate in the world — to create a cacao rum unlike anything else on the market. The distillery infuses 235 pounds of crushed cacao nibs directly into their 80-proof gold rum for 10 days, then adds a little cane sugar to sweeten — the resulting rum is not candy-sweet, avoiding artificial or overly harsh qualities entirely. The rum itself is double distilled in a vintage 1,210-gallon steam-powered copper pot still and cut with filtered water from ancient Mount Wai'ale'ale — giving the base spirit genuine Hawaiian character before the cacao even enters the picture. The nose delivers an initial fudge aroma accented by banana, almond, and baking spice, while the palate brings banana, almond, baking spice, and of course chocolate — think chocolate banana bread. Both taste and aroma carry the warm cocoa notes of high-quality chocolate — Imbibe Magazine called it a drink of the week. Buy Kōloa Kaua'i Cacao Rum online with fast shipping right to your door.
