Review: Key West Chefs Green Coconut Rum

by Jeff Ellingson

Key West Chefs Green Coconut Rum is crafted at Key West’s first legal rum distillery since Prohibition.  The distillery was founded and created by Paul Menta and Tony Mantia in 2012.  It is built on what was originally Jack’s Saloon in 1900.  In 1903 it became a Coca Cola bottling facility.  Paul considers himself a chef first and a distiller second so their process is called chef distilled.  Green Coconut is one of several flavored and spiced rums they currently create, that include Key Lime, Cuban Coffee, Spiced, Devil’s cinnamon, and Vanilla Brulee Dark Rum.  Each of their flavored rums start with their original white rum base made from crystal demerara Florida sugar cane.  The rum is distilled six times.  The unaged rum is blended with coconut water and oils from green coconuts sourced from southern Florida and the Keys and a minimal amount of Florida cane sugar.  Nothing else is added before bottling at 80 proof.  It pours to a pink hued color.  Green coconut water contains antioxidants that turn the water to a naturally occurring pink color.  The aroma is vanilla, cane sugar, coconut milkshake and cocoa.  Additional time in the glass brings out more coconut, with banana and butterscotch joining the party.  The sweet cane sugar and vanilla entry is joined by coconut milk building to a chocolate coconut cupcake peak.  It fades with banana, cane sugar white rum, buttery and creamy real green coconut.  The finish is warm, semi-dry, and bittersweet with salted almonds, coconut flake, milk chocolate taste, and a mild rum sting.  Key West Chefs Green Coconut Rum is a well crafted rum.  It is lightly sweetened, and the coconut flavor you taste comes from real coconuts.
