Coloma Coffee Smoked 8 years old is a true ode to the Colombian traditions of coffee and rum. Produced at Hacienda Coloma, this unique cuvée blends the heritage of roasted coffee with the elegance of a carefully aged old rum. After aging for 8 years in oak barrels, this rum undergoes a double finishing process: first in barrels that previously held a coffee liqueur, then in barrels infused with the deep aromas of roasted coffee. This distinctive maturation imparts Coloma Coffee Smoked with a captivating complexity, where vanilla sweetness, caramelized indulgence, and intense smoky mocha notes intertwine. An exceptional encounter between two legendary worlds.
