About Carolans Irish Cream
Carolans Irish Cream is a premium cream liqueur blending Irish whiskey, fresh Irish cream, and natural honey, produced by Heaven Hill Brands at 17% ABV (34 proof). What makes it special is its lighter, more balanced texture compared to heavier rivals like Baileys, with distinctive honey sweetness, velvety smoothness, and subtle whiskey warmth that avoids overwhelming alcohol heat. Notes of vanilla, caramel, toffee, and faint whiskey create a fresh, complex profile ideal for sipping neat, over ice, or in cocktails. It's perfect for budget-conscious enthusiasts seeking an affordable luxury—$15 for 750ml, also in 1000ml and 1750ml—who appreciate natural flavors without artificial aftertastes. In its category, Carolans ranks highly for versatility, outperforming denser options in mixability and holiday appeal, earning top ratings for value and taste.
