Kula Dark Rum (75cl, 47.5%)

A Hawaiian dark rum from Kula Distillery in Maui, distilled and blended for the classic Hawaiian Mai Tai float. At 95 proof it has the density to sit on top of a Mai Tai rather than sinking into the ice. It is made from organic cane sugar and deep ocean mineral water drawn from 3,000 feet beneath the Pacific off the Kona coast. The dark colour comes from natural ageing and caramel character rather than added caramel colouring. The nose is dark and rich, with molasses, oak and hints of dark caramel. The palate is bold and high-proof, with molasses forward, oak depth, dark caramel sweetness and mineral character. The finish is warm and satisfying, with lingering oak and molasses.
