Review: Brinley Gold Shipwreck Coconut Rum

by Jeff Ellingson

brinley coconut - CopyBrinley Gold Shipwreck Coconut rum is one of five flavored rums made in St. Kitts, the smallest country in the Western Hemisphere, by the Brinley family.  It was rebranded in 2012 to include the Shipwreck name and repackaged to match their Spice rum bottle which honors the recent discovery of the Brimstone Hill off the coast of St. Kitts.  It was a British ship sunk by the French during the battle of Frigate Bay in 1782.  They have been creating rum since 2002.  They column distill their rum and age it in oak bourbon barrels for 4 years.  Their coconut rum is made with molasses and island coconut and is bottled at 72 proof.

The aroma is fresh creamy coconut and baked macaroons with rum undertones.  The feel in my mouth is thick and syrupy.  The flavor is sweet coconut frosting building to a pineapple influenced coconut peak before a medium to full mouth warming and a slightly tangy rum finish.  Additional sips bring out a creaminess to the coconut flavor.  The heat from the rum is a result of the higher alcohol content but the rum is smooth enough to only cause a gentle burn at the back of my throat as I swallow.  This may be a little sweet for some, and a little hot for others to enjoy on the rocks, but the natural coconut flavor and smooth rum finish can’t be denied.  Two signiture cocktails are a Cannonball and a High Seas.
