Kahlúa was founded in 1936 by four friends—the Alvarez brothers and businessman Señor Blanco—who wanted to combine rich Mexican coffee with fine sugarcane spirit. Based in Veracruz, the brand revolutionized the cocktail world, later becoming the crucial ingredient in classics like the Black Russian and White Russian.
Deep in the heart of Veracruz, Mexico, the creators harvest estate-grown Arabica coffee beans that take up to seven years to mature under the shade of the forest canopy. These beans are then roasted and blended with premium rum distilled from local sugarcane.
