Tasting Notes: Malibu Coconut Rum Review
Malibu is a coconut rum made with natural coconut extract by the French company Pernod Ricard. They’re product is made in barbados and is 21% ABV here in the United States (that’s 42-Proof).
Nose: Light on smell, almost giving off the aroma of a standard light rum.
Taste: Silky smooth texture, subtle and light on coconut flavor with a mild sweetness; almost doesn’t taste like rum at all!
Cost: USD $14 or around that price, may be higher on some areas but should be competitively priced with other rums.
Combined Rating:
- Smell: 1.0/5.0
- Taste: 4.0/5.0
- Cost: 3.0/5.0
- End Score: 2.6/5.0
Summary: The cost seems a bit steep for the lack of overall aroma. While the taste is that of coconut it seems to bring a bit more sweet than actual coconut flavoring making it hard to score it a perfect 5.0. The cost would have been more justified had the overall experience been higher matching aroma with taste.
