Distillery Information

In 1778, the HMS Resolution, commanded by Captain James Cook, made landfall on the island of Kaua’i, the oldest island in the Hawaiian archipelago. Cook was the first European to visit the Hawaiian islands, and his sailors — undoubtedly exhausted from a long and arduous journey — are believed to have introduced the concept of rum to the Hawaiians. Within a few years, Hawaii’s first successful sugar plantation was established near the town of Kōloa on the island of Kaua’i. “In many ways, this is where it all began,” says Robert Gunter, master distiller at Kōloa Rum Corporation.
