Coole Swan Irish Cream Liqueur is an Irish cream produced from a blend of a single-malt Irish whiskey, Belgian white chocolate, and fresh cream.[1] Its alcohol content is 16 percent by volume. Made in Ireland, Coole Swan has headquarters on the owners' family farm in County Meath[2] and is bottled in Bailieborough, County Cavan.[3]
Coole Swan launched in Ireland in March 2007.[4] To mark the occasion, British film director Mike Figgis created "Coole Stories" a series of short films, specifically for the brand's debut.[5] Irish chef Neven Maguire is a known supporter of Coole Swan, often making his desserts with the liqueur.[6]
Bottle
Based on the Victorian Milk Bottles, the glass bottles are produced by Hrastnik in Slovenia and decorated in Poland by Dekor Glass.
Manufacture
Callebaut Belgian white chocolate is added to fresh milked cream. The two are then blended in a heating process. Finally, the single malt Irish whiskey is poured into this mix.
