The BourbonBlog.com team is often impressed with Kahlua’s seasonal releases as some are better than others.
The new Kahlúa Pumpkin Spice is in the “better” category and features a blend of “natural pumpkin and delicious autumnal spices.”
We recommend it for your coffees, cocktails or simply drink some on the rocks.
Interestingly, the Pumpkin flavors are not as forward as the fall notes. Like the original Kahlúa, Pumpkin Spice is blended with 100% Arabica coffee and sugarcane rum.
Our other favorite of the season releases has been Kahlua Peppermint Mocha
Kahlúa Pumpkin Spice Review
Proof
20% ABV , 40 proof
Nose
Buttery cinnamon, brown sugar.
Taste
Clove, cinnamon, allspice. A hint of pumpkin, but it is not the predominant flavor.
The overall appeal for this limited release is for its full autumnal notes and not soley on the pumpkin focus.
The overall flavor is not overly sweet maintaining a good balance between the original Kahlúa and the seasonal touches.
Finish
Creamy and luscious
