The story behind it
The maker
Kahlúa was founded in 1936 by four friends in Veracruz, Mexico, who sought to combine rich local Arabica coffee beans with smooth Mexican rum. The name Kahlúa is an ancient Arabic slang word for coffee, paying homage to the historic origins of the bean. Today, it remains the undisputed global leader in coffee liqueurs.
How it is made
Crafted in the coastal hills of Veracruz, Mexico, this liqueur is made using 100% Arabica coffee beans grown in the shade of native trees. These premium beans are slowly roasted, blended with fine Mexican rum made from locally sourced sugarcane, and finished with real vanilla.
