In the Glass
Appearance
Deep, dark mahogany color.
Aromatics
The nose is unmistakably coffee offering scents of roasted coffee bean,s as well as brewed coffee, cocoa nibs, vanilla bean, and mocha.
Flavor
The palate supports the nose adding a deep, roasted bean note on the sweet, coffee-centric core with accents of vanilla cream and sweet brown sugar.
Intensity & Texture
Medium-bodied and very well-balanced especially for the style as we are accustomed to these being cloyingly sweet while this offers a brilliant roasted bean edge.
Cool Factor
A
Liqueurs are everywhere these days and luckily better than ever as well. Rum is a perfect base for Liqueurs as the inherent sweet flavors act as the ideal canvas for true flavors to shine.
Value Grade
B
This is priced well for the market and a little will go a long way in cocktails or in the evening coffee.
Analysis
This is a very attractive coffee Liqueur with a super Rum heart. It sure beats the big coffee Liqueur that we all know and it is worthy of all kinds of experimentation in cocktails as the true flavors will mingle well with many spirits.
How to Enjoy
Sip this neat or over ice or go hot adding it to coffee. There also many cocktail possibilities here and I can’t wait to experiment.
