The story

The story behind Kahlua

Kahlua began in Veracruz, Mexico, in 1936, when Señor Blanco, Montalvo Lara, and the Alvarez brothers, coffee farmers, put distilled sugarcane rum together with their own Arabica beans. The beans are shade grown, and the cherries can take up to six years to mature. After harvest the beans dry and rest in burlap for six months, then get roasted and rested four weeks with the rum before bottling. Start to finish, that is up to seven years.

We have poured Kahlua behind this counter for over thirty years, and the bottle has not changed its job. It is coffee first, sweet second, and it holds its place in a glass of milk or a mug of cocoa without argument.
