Carolans Irish Cream, Ireland is a smooth and indulgent cream liqueur that opens with rich aromas of vanilla, honey, caramel and a hint of toasted oak. The palate is creamy and velvety with flavours of sweet vanilla toffee, light coffee and gentle spice from Irish whiskey, finishing with a silky, lingering sweetness at around 17% alcohol. Fascinating fact: Carolans has been a beloved Irish cream since the 1970s and takes its name from the famous blind Irish harpist Turlough O’Carolan, blending Irish dairy cream with whiskey and honey for a distinctive smooth style. Serve it chilled, over ice, or in coffee.

Irish Cream food pairings: chocolate truffles, tiramisu, pecan pie, espresso brownies.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
