Rutte has been making the most superb spirits since Simon Rutte founded his own distillery in 1872. For generations, they have succeeded in retaining their quality. Whereas other distilleries experimented with artificial colors and flavors, Rutte still uses 100% natural ingredients, pure herbs and spices, real fresh fruit.
In 2009 Rutte introduced a completely new group of distillates, under the name Rutte Spirits, composed and created with the same passion and attention to detail, as well as answering to the demands of a new generation of cosmopolitan lovers of fine products. The first spirit in this line was the 100% Organic Grain Vodka, enthusiastically received by retail, horeca and press.
Now Rutte brings the first new liqueur. Very special, because in contrast with any other coffee liqueur, the CUBAN COFFEE does not have any supporting artificial aromas, but it’s taste is pure and real coffee.
Rutte’s Managing Director, Myriam Hendrickx, passionate salsa dancer, traveled to Cuba many times for her hobby. She wanted to create a liqueur with the coffee from her second homeland. The 100% Cuban Arabica is a special coffee that is hard to get in Europe. Hendrickx imported it especially from Cuba. She praises the rich, full-bodied taste; spicy, yet elegant, sour and bitter in perfect harmony; an unforgettable after taste.
The coffee beans are cultivated without conventional pesticides and artificial fertilizers,400 to 600 mt high, on the steep slopes of the Sierra Maestra Mountains. They are hand picked, dried and roasted with the utmost care.
Rutte creats a unique liqueur out of it, made by hand in small quantities and without artificial additives. A true luxury treat.
Enjoy the real taste of coffee!
