Kula Dark Rum was distilled and blended with the classic Hawaiian Mai Tai in mind. It is 95 proof to help it float perfectly on top, but brings some serious flavor to the cocktail. The color is dark and rich, so is the flavor. On the nose it brings all the aroma of the best aged rums. It suggests molasses, oak and hints of dark caramel. Although we suggest using it on your best Mai Tai, KULA Dark is not a one-dimensional ingredient for cocktails. It can be sipped neat or over ice, surprisingly smooth and pleasantly approachable even at its higher proof. The aged rum character shines through on the front, leaving subtle sweetness, all held in check by just the right amount of oak-iness – then finally a touch of caramel and dark cacao in the finish. • Formulated with a blend of Organic Rum spirits and fine aged rums, some are 10 years old or more • Blended with Deep Pacific Ocean Mineral Water • Flavors disclosed on the label are all sugar cane and rum derived. They include rum extracts and rum esters used to give the product its rich, smooth character. • Caramel color added to maintain batch-to-batch consistent, rich color. Selection of only natural caramel is used (which is simply burnt sugar syrup and is also made from cane sugar). • No sweetener added, no carbohydrates, no gluten • 95 proof so that it easily floats on top of blended cocktails. Rich, bold flavor to enhance the experience. • Makes a superb Cuba Libre or better yet Kula Libre.
