Flavored rum is simply rum to which additional flavors have been added after distillation. Many rum flavors tend toward the tropical, with mango, pineapple, and other bright fruit flavors popular. Coffee and chocolate are also commonly used flavorings, but perhaps the most commonly available flavored rum is Malibu, which uses coconut as its flavoring base (although other coconut brands are also common). At Drinkhacker we classify spiced rum as a distinct and separate category.
