Perola Seven Keys Falernum

Perola Seven Keys Falernum is a rum based falernum, the spiced and sweetened Caribbean cordial that underpins tiki classics like the Corn n Oil and the Naked and Famous. Built on a blend of Barbados and Jamaica rum for a touch of fruit and gentle funk, it is bottled at a low 15% and is sweet and spice heavy by design.

The aroma leads with clove, ginger, allspice and cinnamon, and the palate delivers the same warming spice set alongside nutmeg, all carried on noticeable sugar. The finish adds almond and a soft tonka bean note. Neat it is frankly intense and very sweet, so its real home is behind the bar, where its concentrated spice and almond character lift rum cocktails. Treated as a mixing ingredient rather than a sipper, it earns its place.
