UK rum maker Aluna has released a coconut coffee liqueur with a focus on the product’s low-sugar content.

Aluna Coconut Coffee Liqueur is made with Aluna’s toasted coconut rum, Arabica cold brew coffee, cacao nibs and black cardamom. The expression is Aluna’s first new product since the launch of Aluna Coconut Rum in 2017.

Commenting on the new launch, co-founder Heather Graham said Aluna Coconut Coffee Liqueur has a “more mindful approach to sugar, suited to the modern drinker”.

“The idea was sparked after we noticed that certain darker, richer flavours partnered with our rum’s notes of toasted coconut perfectly – particularly coffee and chocolate,” Graham said. “Aluna Coconut Rum is great in summer drinks and all kinds of classic serves but this allowed us to branch out and explore a new angle.”
