Does anybody know any of the history of Kahlúa? The website doesn't offer much. I even checked older versions via the Wayback Machine. I found some tiny evidence that it is manufactured in or around Puebla, Mexico. But it's hard to verify, even now while I am currently in Mexico. Any info would be good. — Hippietrail 17:01, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Coffee may prevent cirrhosis... is Kahlúa the perfect liquor?

Coffee may contain an ingredient that protects the liver against alcoholic cirrhosis, a new study shows. [1]. Not only does the caffeine keep you from getting too sleepy, the coffee protects your liver. Unfortunately the high levels of sugar may cause diabetes ;) --Thoric 03:03, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

wiki/Diabetes_mellitus does not yet clearly reflect your medical advice, you should add it JayKeaton 23:13, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Most Markets?

The article claims it was lowered to 20% ABV in "most markets". Is this true? A quick check shows it has 20% ABV in most US states and Canada, but 26 or 26.5 in Australia and the few European countries I checked. Liquor laws are in no way international. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.80.117.2 (talk) 15:34, August 20, 2007 (UTC)

Is there a reason Kahlua is not part of Mexican Liquor category??

[edit] History section

The only sentence currently there is "Allied Domecq had produced Kahlúa since 1936[1] until the company was partially acquired in 2005 by Pernod Ricard, the second largest spirits distributor in the world, & third largest in the U.S.[2]".

How can something be third largest in a particular country, yet second largest in the world?IgorSF (talk) 08:05, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

I wondered about that myself. I read the article cited as the source for that perplexing claim. I found twice the claim that they were #2 in the world, but found no reference to being third in the U.S. In case I had overlooked the exact thing I was reading for, I used a search function to find the words "three," "third", "large" and even the numeral "3" and still found nothing.
