Rum Sampling: Latitude 55 Kakwa Rum

The Kakwa Falls is a Northern Alberta landmark revered by many. This makes it the perfect inspiration for Latitude 55 Distilleries Kakwa Rum, the first true craft rum made in Alberta. Distilled in Grande Prairie from blackstrap molasses and aged in bourbon barrels, this golden spirit has been expertly blended for a rich, sweet flavour. Kakwa Rum is a completely unique experience. Just like the falls themselves.

 

This is our largest fundraising event of the year, so don’t miss the chance to bid on exciting items while supporting a great cause!
