Bradys Creams
Irish cream built on single malt, bottled within 48 hours.
The story behind Bradys
Bradys Irish Cream is made in Baileborough, County Cavan, northwest of Dublin, and it starts with a decision most cream liqueurs skip: the whiskey base is triple distilled single malt Irish whiskey cut with neutral grain spirit. That gives it a maltier, more defined backbone than the blended whiskey creams you have probably had. The cream comes from local Irish dairy farms and is emulsified and bottled within 48 hours of arrival. Small batch blending, then natural dark chocolate, vanilla, coffee and butterscotch.
The brand is owned and distributed by Castle Brands Inc., founded in 1998 by Mark Andrews. It sits at 17% ABV, 34 proof, and it has been judged: 91 points and a Great Value nod at the 2012 Ultimate Spirits Challenge, Best Value Cream Liqueur $10 and Under from the Beverage Testing Institute in 2009, and 89 points from Wine Enthusiast reviewer Kara Newman.

Which Bradys is right for you?
Pricing here is straightforward. The 1.75L is $19.99 and it is the one we keep moving, because a cream this drinkable disappears fast in coffee and desserts. The 1L sits at $14.99 and the 750mL at $11.99, both currently out of stock, so call the store at (631) 343-7200 before you drive over and we will tell you what is on the shelf. For a 34 proof cream built on triple distilled single malt, these are value numbers, not premium ones. Buy Bradys online or grab it curbside in Commack.
