Koloa Dark

(12/2018) 40% ABV. Nose: strong vanilla extract with molasses and a bit of caramel. A tinge of cherry syrup. Palate: it seriously tastes like watered-down, sweetened vanilla extract. A very short finish that leaves a bitter spiciness in the throat. Not recommended, even for mixing. Might be good for baking though, or with recipes calling for vanilla liqueur. Or perhaps with cola. Shame.

(11/2016) "Too sweet for my tastes" - Definitely colored (and sweetened) with too much caramel (and who knows what else). You could mix it, just adjust the sugars accordingly. Expected better.

Zatim jsem jeste neochutnal, ale mam ve sbirce, privezla mi ho tchyne z Hawaie. V Evrope se neprodava a celkove je spatne dostupny. Otevru ho az na svoji svatbu, ale jelikoz vsechny lahve, co mam ve svem kabinetu mam opravdu doma v baru a nejsou dopite, tak sem patri :)

Smooth mixer, as good as any other. Nothing distinctive.

Smooth with strong vanilla hint, a bit sweet but tasty.

A friend gave me a bottle of this.I was surprised how good this is with coke and alittle lime..Just like some fellow posters had stated,it is pricey so probably wont find this on my home bar.

Very dark in color. Heavy with vanilla notes. Bit pricey and hard to find on the mainland.

Pretty much sweetness all the way. That's it. For the price they ask, could be better and more refined.

This is a fine rum, with a nice nose and good flavor but I'm afraid priced out of its league. It lacks the complexities of a sipping rum, but will provide the right flavors to make your mixed drinks stand out...if that's what you're looking to achieve.

One of my favorite dark blends. Awesome with cola + citrus. Although it would be a great mixer, its too expensive and foo hard to find to be used as such.

I love this ...total surprise for me
