Review: La Crema Especial Horchata Cream Liqueur
La Crema Especial Horchata Cream Liqueur is made in by Leveche Corporation, a private label bottler in Mira Loma California. This is the same house that distributes Ron Vicaro, Hana Bay, and Whalers Rum, and O’Connor’s Irish Cream Liqueur. Distribution of this product is limited. I found my bottle at a Kroger Grocery store. This is yet another Rum Chata clone, and with several very good tasting clones already on the market, La Crema Especial may have trouble finding shelf space. Read more
Review: Callahans Irish Cream Liqueur
Callahans Irish Cream Liqueur is crafted by First Ireland Spirits in Abbeyleix County Laois. This is the same house that creates the previously reviewed Feeney’s, O’Mara’s, Delaney’s, and McCormicks Irish Cream Liqueurs. Callahans Irish Cream is a private label brand imported by World Spirits LTD. Little product information is provided on the bottle and there is not a website for Callahans or World Spirits LTD.

Review: Caruva Horchata Cream Liqueur
Caruva Horchata Cream Liqueur is contract produced by United States Distilled Products in Princeton Minnesota. This is the same distillery that produces UV Vodka. Caruva is crafted with Caribbean Rum, cream, and natural cinnamon flavors.

Review: Kirkland Irish Cream Liqueur
Kirkland Irish Cream Liqueur is made in Ireland. Kirkland is the house brand of Costco, so you will need a membership to purchase this product. The listed ingredients include fresh dairy cream, Irish Whiskey, whey spirits, and hazelnut, but the label also promises chocolate and caramel flavor. Kirkland Irish Cream Liqueur is only available in 1.75 liter bottles, but at $15.99 a bottle, the price is comparable to a 750ml bottle of Baileys. Read more
Review: Cinnabon Cinnamon Crème Liqueur
Cinnabon Cinnamon Crème Liqueur will soon be released. It is made at the Temperance Distilling Company in Temperance Michigan. This is the same distillery that makes the previous reviewed Adult Chocolate Milk, Leaf Vodka, and Ono Tropical Liqueur. The bottle lists ingredients as real dairy cream, cinnamon and caramel color. I’m guessing neutral grain spirits are omitted from the label but included in the bottle. Read more
Review: Brinley Gold Shipwreck Coconut Rum Cream
Brinley Gold Shipwreck Coconut Rum Cream was just released. Brinley also makes five flavored rums including Spiced, Vanilla, Coffee, Mango, and Coconut. The Brinley family has been crafting rum on St Kitts, since 2002. At 69 square miles St Kitts is the smallest country in the Western Hemisphere. Their Coconut Rum Cream is made with rum that is column distilled and aged for four years in oak bourbon barrels. Real dairy cream from New York and natural coconut flavor are blended with the rum before bottling at 30 proof. Read more
Review: Forbidden Secret White Chocolate American Cream
Forbidden Secret White Chocolate American Cream was just introduced by Forbidden Brands of Pewaukee Wisconsin. It is produced at the same distillery that creates Rum Chata, and the Tippy Cow line of rum creams. I guess if one state should know something about cream it would be the dairy state, Wisconsin. This is the follow up to their Dark Mocha American Cream that was previously reviewed. It is made with chocolate, pure Wisconsin dairy cream, and Jailers Premium Tennessee Whiskey. Read more
