I have never had Kohala so I lean on this group for opinions.
I have been using the 1/2 blend of S&C/EL12 in many of Hayward's drinks and some others I have on my bar's menu. Very tasty mix and adds a unique flavor when blended in just the right amount to any drink. I have also played with the Hamilton Black variations but like the former better.
Never have put the Pusser's Blue label on rotation in my bar but after a tasting done at the Monthly Tiki Seminar at Trader Vic's here in ATL and a recent passion for the Painkiller, I bought some and I must say, it smells and tastes very similar to the Kohala Bay substitute blends.
Am I way off or has anybody tried this?
It definitely carries the funk in the nose and shares a similar richness but I would only use it in a pinch. I do enjoy that rum, though! I may have to revisit it in a direct comparison with my current preferred KB blend.
