About Kahlua
Kahlúa is the world's number one coffee liqueur, produced in Veracruz, Mexico since 1936. Created by Señor Blanco, Montalvo Lara, and the Alvarez Brothers, the iconic drink is made from rum, sugar, and hand-picked arabica coffee beans. The name "Kahlúa" comes from the Veracruz Nahuatl language, meaning "House of the Acolhua people." Every drop is crafted in Mexico City using coffee beans grown in shade plantations across four remote farming communities in coastal Veracruz—a tradition of authentic Mexican craftsmanship. Now owned by Pernod Ricard (the world's largest spirits distributor), Kahlúa has been the global leader in coffee liqueurs since the 1980s. The brand is committed to sustainability, sourcing 100% of its coffee from sustainable communities. Kahlúa is essential for classic cocktails including Espresso Martini, White Russian, Black Russian, and Mudslide. It's also popular in desserts and coffee-based drinks for its rich, sweet coffee flavour. Grocefully helps UK shoppers compare Kahlúa prices across supermarkets including Tesco, Sainsbury's, Asda, and Morrisons.
