Kōloa Rum: 15 Years of Hawaiian Craftsmanship and Aloha Spirit
When searching for paradise in a bottle, Kōloa Rum stands out. As Kaua’i’s first licensed distillery, this rum has embodied the island’s spirit since 2009. Now, fifteen years later, Kōloa continues to grow, delivering the essence of Hawaiian bliss and Kaua’i’s vibrant culture to rum enthusiasts worldwide.
A Tribute to Hawaiian Craftsmanship and Community
More than just a spirit, the brand represents a heartfelt homage to Hawaiian craftsmanship and the local community. Each bottle reflects Kaua’i’s rich heritage, created with locally sourced ingredients and traditional distillation methods.
From classic dark and light rums to unique, island-inspired flavors, Kōloa showcases the natural beauty and longstanding sugarcane legacy of Kaua’i. Using pure sugarcane and pristine Mount Waiʻaleʻale rainwater, every rum achieves a smooth, velvety finish ideal for sipping or mixing into tropical cocktails.
Deep-Rooted Ties to Kaua’i’s Agricultural Legacy
Kōloa’s dedication to Hawaiian history, particularly sugarcane cultivation, sets it apart. Honoring Kaua’i’s enduring agricultural tradition, Kōloa collaborates with local farmers to craft specialty rums, such as the luxurious Kōloa Kauaʻi Cacao Rum and the richly flavored Kōloa Kauaʻi Coffee Rum. These creations celebrate both the island’s natural bounty and the creativity that stems from community collaboration.
Quality and Authenticity from Distillery to Bottle
The commitment to quality in Kōloa’s distilling, blending, and bottling process defines its reputation. Operating entirely out of its Kalaheo distillery—a scenic site that reflects the brand’s dedication—Kōloa delivers rum steeped in care and authenticity. With an expanding portfolio that now includes ready-to-drink (RTD) cocktails, Kōloa offers even more ways to experience Hawaii’s spirit, whether by the ocean or at home.
Celebrating 15 Years of Hawaiian Flavor
As Kōloa Rum marks its 15th anniversary, it remains dedicated to sharing Hawaiian culture with the world. From complex flavors to community-driven values, Kōloa Rum brings a taste of Kaua’i to each pour. Whether you enjoy it neat, on the rocks, or in a tropical cocktail, Kōloa captures the refreshing essence of a Kaua’i breeze.
