The story

The story behind Rum Chata

Tom Maas perfected RumChata in his own kitchen in 2007, and the brand hit shelves in 2009. It is made in Pewaukee, Wisconsin, where his father Duane Maas set up the bottling line that still handles quality control. The base is five-times-distilled Caribbean rum, blended with real Wisconsin dairy cream, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and a proprietary spice mix.

That recipe borrows the idea of Mexican horchata without the rice water, and it is homogenized so the cream stays stable in the bottle. Roughly one-third less butterfat than standard cream liqueurs keeps it lighter on the palate. No aging, no grapes, no agave. Just rum, dairy and spice, bottled at 13.75% ABV.

RumChata built a following on one bottle, then stretched the idea into lemon, coconut, pumpkin and peppermint. Here is what we keep on the shelf.

Good to know

Rum Chata questions, answered

What is RumChata made of?
RumChata is five-times-distilled Caribbean rum blended with real Wisconsin dairy cream, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and a proprietary spice mix. It contains no rice water, despite the horchata name, and no aging is involved.
Is RumChata a rum or a liqueur?
RumChata is a cream liqueur, not a straight rum. Caribbean rum supplies the base spirit, but the finished product is sweetened, spiced and cut with dairy cream to 13.75% ABV, or 27.5 proof.
Does RumChata need to be refrigerated?
RumChata does not require refrigeration before opening, though it tastes best chilled. Once opened, keep it in the fridge and use it within roughly six months. Shake gently before pouring, since the cream can settle.
Can you mix RumChata with citrus?
No. RumChata contains real dairy cream, and high-acid ingredients like lemon or lime juice will curdle it in the glass. Mix it with coffee, chocolate, cinnamon whiskey or cream based spirits instead.
