Mocha Verde


Dark rum mocha verde with green coffee and cacao

Mocha Verde began as an exploration of contrasts: the bright, herbal edge of ground green coffee meeting the deep, velvety richness of cacao powder. Dark rum offered a warm foundation, while fresh orange juice and zest lifted the blend with a clean citrus spark. Vanilla, cinnamon, and mace layered in gentle spice, creating a quiet complexity that unfolded over time. As the coconut sugar melted into the mix, everything softened into harmony. The result is a liqueur that feels lively yet grounded, green yet warmly roasted—a smooth fusion of unexpected elements.
