Just in time for holiday entertaining, Old Forge Distillery has released three cream-based spirits inspired by flavors found at the nearby Old Mill Creamery and Candy Kitchen. The new cream liqueur flavors include: Cinnamon, Chocolate Coconut and Pumpkin, and are available for sale at Old Forge Distillery in Pigeon Forge and area liquor stores.
“The fall cream line-up is perfect for holiday parties, especially for people looking for a signature cocktail for their parties,” said Head Distiller Keener Shanton. “From a seasonality standpoint, cream liqueurs tend to be most popular during the winter.”
Presented at 34 proof, Old Forge Creams are made with a rum and cream mixture that’s tastefully blended with flavors that reflect the season. The creams can be mixed in cocktails, poured over ice, or enjoyed in coffee.
