Product Description

Kōloa Kaua‘i Reserve 4 Year Single Barrel 10th Anniversary Rum: Six Barrels, Cask Strength, Straight from Kauaʻi

For its tenth birthday, Kōloa Rum Company didn’t make a party rum. It picked six individual barrels of its 4-year-aged Hawaiian rum and bottled them as they were. Kōloa Kaua‘i Reserve Single Barrel 10th Anniversary Rum was distilled from Kauaʻi cane sugar and aged in gently charred American white oak at the Kalaheo distillery, then bottled at cask strength, 58.7% ABV (117.4 proof). Each barrel yields only about 180 bottles, each inspected and numbered.

Kōloa describes a rum that’s remarkably smooth for its strength, with a subtle sweetness that builds into rich, complex flavors and a clean finish that lingers. Because it’s a single barrel, the notes vary a little from bottle to bottle. It was first sold only at the distillery’s tasting room on Kauaʻi, then at a small number of retailers, and it’s a one-time limited release. Sip it neat, with a few drops of water, or over one large cube, with dark chocolate, grilled pineapple, teriyaki pork, or aged cheese. It’s a gift for a rum collector, a good piece for a Hawaii-themed shelf, and a bottle for anyone who has tried the Kōloa Gold and wants the barrel-strength version. A bottle with a story: the first decade of Hawaii’s modern rum distillery.
