Kafé Luna

Kafé Luna is a Premium Blend coffee liqueur alternative. A shot of Kafé Luna with whipped cream can be a delightful way to cap off a meal. The light, fluffy texture of the cream complements the bold flavor of the Kafé Luna, creating a perfect balance of flavors and textures. You can also add a sprinkle of cocoa powder or cinnamon on top for an extra touch of flavor and aroma.
