Benjamin Moore

Spiced Rum

CC-272 / 1140

Spiced Rum is a warm mid-dark brown with pronounced caramel and orange undertones that align it with cognac and amber tones. At an LRV of 18.27, it reflects limited light and carries substantial visual weight on walls. The orange-brown balance holds steady under most lighting, though warm bulbs amplify the caramel quality.

Rustic Taupe complements it with a cooler brown pairing, while Hale Navy and Midnight Navy introduce deep blue contrast. Chestertown Buff and Terracotta Tile stay within its warm analogous range for layered tonal schemes.
