DESCRIPTION
The Baileys Irish Cream is an Irish cream liqueur made by Diageo at Nangor Road in Dublin, Ireland and in Mallusk, Northern Ireland. Irish liquor is basically an alcoholic beverage that is flavoured with cream cocoa and Irish whiskey! Yummy!
Owned by Gilbeys of Ireland, alcohol content is at 17% by volume for Baileys liquor. Invented in 1971 for Gilbeys of Ireland by a team headed by Tom Jago, the Baileys is the original Irish cream. The team wanted to introduce something new to the international market and thus a combination of Irish whiskey plus cream was formed! Baileys Irish liqueur was first put on the market in 1974.
Manufactured from various distilleries, the Baileys recipe required the cream and IRish whiskey to be homogenised to form an emulsion. This process prevents the alcohol and cream from separating when it is stored. No preservatives are required as the alcohol content preserves the cream
