Rumhattan: A Forest-Infused Twist on a Classic

Rumhattan cocktail in a chilled glass garnished with orange peel

Meet the Rumhattan—a bold Newfoundland twist on the classic Manhattan cocktail. This version replaces traditional whiskey with the distillery’s signature Chaga Rum, blending forest flavors with a timeless drink.

What’s in a Rumhattan?

  • 2 oz Chaga Rum

  • 1 oz sweet vermouth

  • A dash of chaga-chanterelle bitters

  • Optional: a twist of orange peel

Stir with ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. The result? A rich, earthy, slightly smoky sip with a hint of natural sweetness from the chaga.

Why It Works

Chaga and chanterelle bring an umami warmth to the drink, making it perfect for cooler nights or after-dinner unwinding. The Rumhattan pays tribute to Newfoundland’s wild landscape while delivering a cozy, elevated cocktail experience.
