Baileys Irish Cream is a renowned cream-based liqueur, infused with Irish whiskey. It was launched in Dublin in 1974, the brainchild of R&A Bailey & Co. and quickly gained popularity in the global market. It's a unique blend of rich dairy cream, fine spirits, Irish whiskey, sugar, and a proprietary recipe of chocolate and vanilla flavors.
The alcoholic content varies between 15-17% by volume. The partnership with Irish dairy farmers assures the freshness of the cream, which is processed within 36 hours of milking. The whiskey used is triple distilled, and the blend preserved by the alcohol discourages the cream from spoiling without the necessity of preservatives.
Baileys Irish Cream can be enjoyed solo, on the rocks, or used in a myriad of cocktails and desserts due to its creamy texture and sweet, mild taste. Baileys has also launched flavored variations of the original including Vanilla Cinnamon, Chocolat Luxe, and Salted Caramel among others. It is important to note that Baileys has a shelf life of two years, regardless of whether it has been opened or the seal left broke.
