Carolan's Creams
Irish cream with honey, whiskey and real dairy heart.
The story behind Carolan's
Carolan's was developed in 1978 by TJ Carolan & Son Ltd and launched in the UK in July 1979. The name honors Turlough O'Carolan, the blind 17th century Irish harpist who traveled the countryside composing tunes. Production draws on Clonmel, County Tipperary, in the Golden Vale dairy country, with manufacturing handled by First Ireland Spirits in Abbeyleix, County Laois. Heaven Hill Brands bought the label in 2017.
What separates Carolan's from the cream liqueur crowd is honey. Farm fresh Irish cream makes up nearly one third of the liquid, emulsified with aged Irish whiskey, neutral grain spirit and natural honey, then pasteurized and bottled without barrel aging. That honey backbone is why it drinks lighter and less sugary than the big names, and why we have kept it on our shelves for years.
