Benjamin Moore

Butter Rum

CC-188 / 116

Butter Rum is a warm peach with an orange undertone. Its LRV of 60.69 puts it in the light mid-tone range. It can be used in dining rooms, kitchens, or accent walls where a warm tint is acceptable.

Combine it with Benjamin Moore White Dove or Swiss Coffee for lighter balance. Hale Navy, Kendall Charcoal, or Soft Pumpkin provide contrast or adjacent warmth. In warmer light, the undertone stays present and the color can deepen slightly.
