PROJECT #173 LAUNCHES DUBAI CHOCOLATE RUM

Declared by The Wall Street Journal as “the new Pumpkin Spice”[1] Dubai Chocolate – a mix of milk chocolate, pistachio cream and crispy filo pastry – has been setting social feeds (and taste buds) alight with the #dubaichocolate hashtag having achieved in excess of 20 billion views on TikTok alone[2].

Now, Project #173 brings the trend to spirits lovers with the launch of their new Dubai Chocolate Flavoured Rum (RRP £20.95 | Available from Master of Malt)

It is crafted around a core of quality Caribbean rum and naturally flavoured with indulgent layers of creamy chocolate and pistachio. Sip it neat, stir it into an Old Fashioned, shake it with a shot of Espresso or mix into a decadent cocktail. This one’s for the flavour fiends.

Project #173 is already known for its line-up of playful, premium flavoured rums, presented in their signature apothecary-style bottles. The range includes everything from Black Cherry, Smoked Chilli and Pumpkin Spice to Salted Caramel, Cherry Bakewell and Coconut.
