BARDSTOWN, Ky. – Heaven Hill Distilleries has introduced Mint Chocolate and Caramel flavors for its popular O’Mara’s Irish Country Cream. The rich cream of imported O’Mara’s Irish Country Cream is now enhanced by the decadent flavor of mint chocolate and caramel flavoring – a pairing served well after dinner or over ice.
“Growth for O’Mara’s has been exceptional since its introduction,” said Reid Hafer, Senior Brand Manager, Heaven Hill Distilleries, Inc. “The addition of these flavors should serve to expand our shelf presence nationally and stimulate interest in a quietly strong segment.”
O’Mara’s Mint Chocolate and Caramel Irish Country Creams are available nationally in 750 ml and bottled at 13.9 percent alcohol by volume (27.8 proof).
O’Mara’s Irish Country Cream is the first Irish cream to incorporate fine wine in its unique blending process which provides a distinctly smooth flavor without a hint of harsh aftertaste. The wine base opens up additional retail distribution opportunities in non-traditional outlets including wine-only on-premise locations and grocery stores.
The brand is hand-crafted in the heart of Ireland’s dairy region by Pat O’Mara & Co., of Abbyleix, Ireland, an independent Irish-owned beverage company, using only the freshest cream from the neighboring dairy.
