KLYR Rum Makes a Splash in Manhattan at their First Ever Bespoke NYC Tasting 

On March 27 KLYR Rum hosted their first-ever Manhattan event at New York’s Cad & The Dandy Penthouse showroom to showcase their line of rums to a crowd of NYC’s mixology, nightlife and style scene.

The event was jam-packed.

The stylish crowd gathered to meet the founders, hear their story and of course, taste their canned cocktails.  Just like a well-balanced cocktail, all three parts were mixed impressively.

KLYR Rum Cocktails

 

Their cocktails are dangerously clean.  They chose to make purity their guide and as a result they created a rum that ‘drinks like a vodka’ — the result is an excellent mixing partner for ice, soda, or a touch of fruit.

 

KLYR Water

 

The 99 calorie KLYR Water is made with natural flavors. Pretty classic tasting notes, with a very clean and crisp taste.

It’s a versatile cocktail that can be an easy-drink happy hour go-to or dressed-up for an elegant black-tie evening. Another good sign: 4.5% ABV.

 

KLYR Krush

 

Their KLYR Krush is a bit more.  More flavor, more character, more fun.  Its flavor is a gush of exotic sun-ripened oranges.  Sweet, surprising, refreshing.  Again: 4.5% ABV.

The Krush is an easy rooftop treat this spring and summer.  It’s what I would pass around to my friends hanging out on our building’s rooftop after brunch on a Sunday Funday.

KLYR Rum Team

 

Adam Lehrhaupt, Amish Patel, and Neil Kahrim started out as easy rum drinkers.  Let’s be honest, most of us can relate as rum is easy to drink.  But as they got deeper into appreciating the spirit, they started to tinker.  With flavor, with health benefits, with mixers.  They wanted a result that was purer.

 

To do that, they realized they had to produce their own.

 

A fun, but expensive hobby that has now been launched into a profitable endeavor beyond their wildest expectations – and they’re just getting started.

 

At the beginning, the team’s mission was very straightforward.  They wanted Lexi Close, KLYR’s master distiller, to try as many versions as it took to fine-tune the perfect ratio of sugar, water, and yeast.

 

And now their next step is getting KLYR Rum into everyone’s hands for a taste.

 

The only problem with that, based on the crowd at this event, is no one just wanted one taste.  They go back for a second, a third, and so.  Again, it’s easy to drink.

 

KLYR Rum Story

 

KLYR Rum set out to disrupt the industry by redefining what rum can be. A revolutionary distillation process that will make the most avid vodka, gin and whiskey lovers say, ‘yes please’.

 

Holding on to the body of an aged rum, add the smoothness and easy drinking of a vodka. The result is a rum that is refreshingly different from shelf after shelf of countless other rums out there.

 

At twelve times distilled and filtered eighteen times, KLYR is an innovative, fresh take on rum that speaks to American ingenuity. KLYR Rum has zero grams of sugar, zero grams of carbohydrates, and it’s lower in calories than other, more sugary rums.
