Beyond Esotico Miami: Kaona Room and Daniele Dalla Pola’s cocktail and rum adventures

Global Testimonial

“A great cocktail involves mixing fragrances, tastes and a sparkle of good mood to create a drink experience that is truly priceless.”

Exceptional Rum Collaboration

The Heritage Blend is a tribute to the three rum traditions of the Caribbean basin, incorporating rum, rhum, and ron. It's made with aged pot and column distillates from molasses and cane juice, and has notes of vanilla custard, dried fruit, citrus, oak, and baking spice. The rum can be used in classic and tiki cocktails, or sipped on its own. 
The label design for the Esotico Edition is a collaboration with Daniele Dalla Pola, a bartender and restaurateur from Miami, and his restaurant Esotico. The design pays homage to vintage travel posters and the excitement of travel.

Cocktail College
[ Missionary's Downfall ]

On this episode of the “Cocktail College” podcast, host Tim McKirdy is joined by Daniele Dalla Pola of Miami’ The Kaona Room. The Italian-born rum enthusiast and exotic drinks connoisseur is here to walk us through the history of the cocktail, the benefits of agave nectar, the differences between frozen and slushy drinks, and even to give some crucial advice for aspiring bartenders. Tune in for more.

Over the years, the professional growth of the team led by Daniele Dalla Pola allowed for greater specialization and the NU LOUNGE BAR embraced the TIKI culture, becoming one of the most important TIKI BAR in the world.

If you have a soft spot for tiki bars, then Nu Lounge is an excellent example. Hidden away within a classic Italian arcade, it offers all of the greatest hits of tiki, some with a little twist. There's also an array of fancy garnishes and the team makes the most of an impressively large collection of ceramic tiki mugs. Come expecting the big show, with fire, dry ice and the like – alongside some more unexpected offerings.
