Most people land on the same verdict: pleasant, sweet and easy, but light on character. Expect vanilla, caramel and a strong coffee note (from those coffee-liqueur barrels), with milk chocolate underneath. Several tasters call it "an average rum," a bit flat and one-note, while dessert-lovers enjoy how round and gentle it is after a meal. The gift box gets its own fans.

Review by Eugene227
Combines coffee notes with vanilla, caramel, chocolate, and a subtle oak spice. The profile is soft and pleasantly approachable, but the sweetness makes it somewhat one-dimensional. A solid rum that lacks depth and complexity for a lasting impression.
Review by Timo Groeger
This is also a quite okay 40% average rum. Actually, the nose and palate are almost all coffee. I can still taste a slight hint of caramel. It's also relatively sweet, but still within reason.
Review by Vincent D
It's been a long time since I tasted Coloma. I found this eight-year-old quite pleasant. Sweet, caramelized and on coffee. It's very pronounced. But a somewhat acidic woodiness brings interest to this bottle. Rather pleasant.
Review by Arnaud Faverjon
It's really sweet... lacks character despite the coffee notes.
Review by Stefan Persson
The nose is nice, it’s easy to drink and a rather short finish goes the same way as at the palate. It’s very unclear where this rum is distilled, cause they don’t have any stills at the Hacienda Coloma so they are probably just aging, blending and bottling it. In the end of the aging they finish it in former Coloma Coffee Liqueur barrels.
Review by martin slezák
Blind tasting. Color light yellow. Aroma sweetness, vanilla, cinnamon, caramel. Taste sweetness, vanilla, cinnamon, caramel, bitter almonds, marzipan, rather shallow. Finish short vanilla, cinnamon, marzipan. Not the style I like, boring for me.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Quite nice but nothing too special and a bit too sweet. The Hechicera from Colombia offers more for the money!
Review by 𝕯𝖔𝖓 𝕸𝖆𝖙𝖙𝖊𝖔
I really like this rum to finish a meal, or to accompany a sweet dessert. It is very round and sweet. It's also good to have it simple, not expensive. Doesn't fart higher than his ass. And the box/bottle is beautiful, nice as a decoration in the living room.
Review by Master P
Pretty nice that it smells like milk chocolate, but quite sweet. Okay to try once.
Review by Luks
Rather pleasant for a sweet rum.
Review by Daniel
Weak nose, subtle vanilla, harmonious. Sweet, vanilla, woody, mild. Unobtrusive sweet rum, reminds of Barbados. Easy sipping.
Review by Morgan Garet
It is very pleasant, very greedy, of course the coffee dominates from the nose to the finish.
Review by Jindrich Strobl
An average rum. Easy drinking, a bit flat.
Review by Tyler Griffith
Incredibly smooth. Sweet, but not sickly. Little to no burn. Pleasant nose that translates well to the taste. Heavy on vanilla/sugar, so a bit one-note, but very enjoyable.
Review by Rado Vito
It is sweeter than older 15y, but the price is ok. Must try, than you should ask yourself, it is your cup of rum?
Review by Jonas Kofod
Pleasant sweet. Spices and caramel. But not much complexity.

Review by Anonymous
Coloma 8 years is a rum produced from molasses coming from two varieties of sugarcane. After column distillation, the rum is aged for 8 years in American oak barrels. A rum that is both round and rustic.
Review by sebastien dumant
Nice little rum with coffee on the nose and taste, and for me a background of almonds and light vanilla. Nice
Review by Skye92
Woody rum, super interesting and tasty, versatile pairing with cigar and dessert.
Review by Djoul 🇧🇪
Didn't particularly notice the coffee aftertaste though it was announced!

Read full review ›If you like rum for easy sipping and you like spirits with the taste of coffee or chocolate, then the 8-year-old Colombian Coloma is for you. Luxurious, beautiful bright blue gold packaging - gift box and the bottle itself with a Colombian theme. A representative rum gift.

Read full review ›I rate it 7.0 out of 10, a solid rum that doesn't disappoint.
Expert review by The Fat Rum Pirate
Read full review ›This is seriously, a very boring, flat, uninspired spirit. I didn't expect this to be quite as boring as this. I was hoping it might be a bit more like La Hechicera than Dictador . Sadly that's simply not the case. Completely forgettable in many ways but pretty rancid nonetheless.
