Product Snapshot – Brogan’s Irish Cream

Produced in Ireland, Brogan’s Irish Cream is a cream-liqueur consisting of fresh cream, oak-aged Irish whiskey and rich chocolate. Its official description classes it as ‘Irish to the core’ – as can be seen by the ingredients favoured. Along with the original, there are flavoured varieties that have also been introduced (such as Mint, White Chocolate and Crème Caramel).

Taste & Character:

Key flavour notes: cocoa/chocolate, sweet vanilla, rich cream, a warming whiskey base
The texture can be described as velvety, rich and indulgent – likely due to the fresh cream used
Some have noted the aroma has hints of espresso, milk chocolate and caramelised sugar
The ABV is stronger than typical light cream liqueurs, but is still classed as a ‘dessert / after-dinner’ drink

How to Serve:

The best way to drink Brogan’s Irish Cream is to serve neat, perhaps slightly chilled or over a couple of ice cubes, to appreciate the creamy texture and flavour
It can be used in an Irish Coffee-style drink – add a splash to hot coffee for a treat.
Use in cocktails or dessert-style serves – for instance the Cappuccino variant is described for blending with ice cream or coffee liqueur cocktails
Due to its richness, it could also be used as a dessert ingredient, such as pouring over ice cream or mixed into a creamy pudding

Things to Note:

Because cream liqueurs are dairy-based, they have a shorter shelf life once opened compared to spirits. It’s best kept refrigerated and consumed within a reasonable timeframe, to be able to enjoy the liqueur at its best.
