The last confirmed sighting of Kohala Bay rum on a liquor store shelf took place on Saturday May 21st, 2016 at 11:16am (soon to be known as Black Tot Day 2.0) at Rollo's Liquors located at 9100 S Dixie Hwy, Kendall, FL 33156.

I know this because I was the one who took the above picture of the last two remaining dusty 1.75L bottles shortly before I purchased one.

NOTE: I had not known at the time that Kohala Bay was in dire shortage. There was still some hope left that it was a 'supply chain' issue and that it would be coming back. Unfortunately for me, the spotty-faced cheese**** kid behind the counter snagged the other bottle (after I drew his attention to it) before I could go back and get it. Looking back, it was a mistake. I should have just snagged both bottles and paid without saying a word.

Still, I have two unopened 1.75L bottles at home which I never plan on opening. However, having said that, I understand that plastic is not as resilient as glass and I may, at a later date, have to transfer the precious liquid to a more secure glass container.

Meanwhile, I use Coruba dark, which is the next best thing.
