Moonlight Over Maui
Hali'imaile Distilling sits in the heart of Maui's pineapple region in Upcountry Makawao, a craft distillery founded on sustainability, community and 'ohana — its stated goal is "Hawaii in a Bottle." The Mahina line is the distillery's rum program, and Platinum is the purist's expression: no infusions, no flavorings, just first-run Caribbean molasses fermented, distilled and brought to proof with reverse-osmosis water. Crisp as it enters the palate with mild hints of sugar cane and citrus, it ends dry and bright — exactly what a white rum should do in a cocktail.

Brilliant, crystal-clear. Light and inviting — fresh sugarcane, citrus peel and soft vanilla on the nose. Palate: clean and crisp, cane sugar and subtle fruit with a touch of mineral freshness. Smooth, dry, refreshing finish.
How to Enjoy
The cocktail workhorse: daiquiris, mojitos, punches — anywhere a clean white rum lets the other ingredients shine. Sips fine with lime over ice too.
