Shakespeare Distillery Launches Their First Cream Liqueur Just in Time for the Holidays

Shakespeare Distillery in Stratford-upon-Avon has launched a Jester Rum Cream Liqueur, the first in an exciting new product range from the award-winning, Warwickshire independent spirit producer.

This first Chocolate Cream Liqueur is a collaboration with 1683 Chocolate Place, a local award-winning chocolatier, with whom Shakespeare Distillery has a long-standing relationship and who produce its outstanding artisan Gin and Rum chocolates.

The Chocolate Cream Liqueur is a decadent blend of the Distillery’s cask-aged Jester Rum, luxury Belgian chocolate and fresh local cream from Cotteswold Dairy. The rich cocoa and rum flavors perfectly balance with subtle hints of vanilla and butterscotch. This is a new avenue for the progressive artisan distillery and requires significant machinery and equipment investment. In a departure from their existing clear bottles, the team has sourced unique ceramic bottles to evoke the traditional look of a cream liqueur.

Shakespeare Distillery is no stranger to experimentation and developing new spirits from scratch, having launched its British Jester Rum in 2021. Jester White Rum, awarded an IWSC Silver badge, has since been aged for three years in ex-industry casks and the team released the first of their long-awaited ‘Jester’ Cask Aged Rums in December 2023. Their new Chocolate Cream Liqueur is made using Jester Rum aged in a Wild Turkey Bourbon cask.

Simon Picken, Director at Shakespeare Distillery said, “We’re thrilled to launch our new Cream Liqueur, the first of many we have planned. Rum and chocolate are an ideal pairing and so for us, a Chocolate Cream Liqueur was the obvious first choice in this new range. It’s been fantastic working with Joe (Vaughan) at 1683 Chocolate Place, a fellow award-winning craftsman who really understands our requirements and flavour profiles. Together we’ve created a truly special, high-quality Chocolate Cream Liqueur which is sure to be incredibly popular with our customers”!

Serving the cream liqueur neat over ice, in a hot chocolate or poured over a favourite ice cream.

Launched ready for the upcoming festive period, it is available in a 50cl bottle and retails at £30. It can be purchased online at https://shakespearedistillery.com/product/chocolate-cream-liqueur/, at the distillery shop, or from the shop at No 1 High Street, Stratford-upon-Avon.
