Kōloa Rum Co. launched the brand’s third aged rum with the debut of its single-barrel Kōloa Kaua'i Reserve Five-Year Aged Hawaiian Rum. Bottled at cask strength, Kōloa Kaua'i Reserve Five-Year Aged Hawaiian Rum is distilled and aged in charred American white oak barrels. The barrel-aging process imparts a deep amber color with notes of cinnamon, orange, roasted almond and charred oak on the nose, the company says. The rum also imparts flavors of toasted vanilla, orange zest, brown butter and honey that linger through a long, warm finish, it adds. The initial release consists of five individual barrels that have been aged for a minimum of five years. The rum is available for a suggested retail price of $99.95.
