Koloa Rum Company, award-winning rum producer based in Kauai, Hawaii, has partnered with Allied Beverage Group to expand distribution of eight premium rum products into the New Jersey market. Available now for purchase, rum enthusiasts and patrons can choose from a diverse portfolio of flavors including White, Gold, Dark, Spice, Coconut, Cacao, Coffee, as well as the five-year, Kauai Reserved Single-Barrel Aged rum.
“We’re excited to represent Koloa Rum, known as Hawaii’s Spirit of Aloha,” said Sara Harmelin VP of Digital & Innovation at Allied Beverage Group. “Koloa Rum fits perfectly into our brand portfolio with its uniquely crafted premium rums. The response from our customers is remarkable and the company has truly exceeded our expectations.
Koloa Rum products are artfully distilled, blended and bottled in Kalaheo, Kauai. Pure cane sugar and pristine rainwater from Mount Waiʻaleʻale come together to produce single-batch rums with remarkably rich flavors and smoothness that capture the essence of “The Garden Isle” in a delicious range of premium rum products.
“To meet the steadily increasing demand for our premium rum products, it is critically important that we align with the absolute best distribution partners in each of the markets we serve, and New Jersey is no exception,” said Bob Gunter, president and CEO of Koloa Rum Company. “New Jersey is our latest project launch and we’re ecstatic to share The Spirit of Aloha from The Garden Isle to The Garden State.”
I received samples of this rum for evaluation. As rum is my preferred spirit, I can vouch for the quality of this rum. All of the rums in the lineup are good for cocktails, but the five-year, Kauai Reserved Single-Barrel Aged rum is a spectacular sipping rum! I guarantee if you like rum, you’ll enjoy adding Koloa Hawaiian rum to your bar.
