Five Farms Irish Cream Liqueur
17% ABV (34 proof) | 750mL | Farm-to-table Irish cream | County Cork, Ireland — Five Farms is the world's first farm-to-table Irish cream liqueur: fresh, high-butterfat cream from five family-owned dairy farms in County Cork, blended within 48 hours of harvest with triple-distilled Irish whiskey. The result scored 97 points and the Chairman's Trophy at the 2018 Ultimate Spirits Challenge — the highest score ever awarded to an Irish cream. Available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor in San Diego, CA.
The nose opens with butterscotch, caramel fondue, and vanilla bean; the lush palate coats the mouth with coffee with fresh cream, dulce de leche, coconut, maple, and Belgian waffles. It arrives in a striking black-glass bottle with a metal swing handle — as much a shelf piece as a sipper. Among cream liqueurs, Five Farms is the one that made the whole category take notice.
