KAHLÙA COFFEE CREAM
This is the newest product from Kahlùa (since 1936) and is a limited edition liqueur for this holiday season. The word Kahlúa means “House of the Acolhua people” in the old Veracruz Nahuatl language in Mexico.The coffee used in the coffee cream liqueur grows in Veracruz, Mexico.
The coffee cream liqueur is made with Kahlùa which is made from 100% Arabica coffee beans that are shade grown in Veracruz and fresh, natural cream. Mexican vanilla beans and rum, are key components in creating Kahlua’s flavour and the cream adds another dimension enhancing Kahlua’s notes of vanilla, caramel and hints of dark chocolate. I think the addition of the cream adds a smooth creamy and very yummy taste and texture to the liqueur.
Kahlúa Coffee Cream will be available at retail in the US from october 1 through december 31 and be sold together with the rest of Kahlua’s range of coffee liqueurs, including Kahlua Mocha, Kahlua French Vanilla, Kahlua Hazelnut and Kahlua Especial.
The last TDN was sponsored by Kahlùa and so we got to try out this yummy product and mix a range of cocktails with it which was fun. I want to add one of mine here where Kahlùa Coffee Cream, Tequila reposado and Crema de Mezcal goes in the same glass:
ULÙA SUNRISE
1.5 oz tequila reposado
0.5 oz kahlua coffee cream
1t (very small) creme de cacao
2 oz fresh pineapple juice.
Float Del Maguey Crema de Mezcal
Shake, strain and serve with crushed ice and add a good float Crema de Mezcal. Fill up with more crushed ice and garnish with a pineapple leaf.
This is a drink for those who loves sweet stuff! if you like it less sweet maybe 1/4th Kahlùa Coffee cream is better. The crema de mezcal gives a real nice touch to this.
My impression of Kahlùa Coffee Cream is good, its smooth and mellow, yummy and creamy.
