BH, you might be onto something there. Legend has it that the Black Magic is a cross-pollination of the Barrel of Rum and The Mutiny, which has a heavier coffee taste than the Black Magic. This also plays into my theory that there are at least two, perhaps three or more rums in the Black Magic. Pondering the Mai-Kai's big three coffee drinks (The Hukilau is the third), I've always wondered if they contain chilled coffee, brandy, liquor, syrup or some combination of the above that we'll never be able to figure out.
