Tesco's award-winning Irish liqueur named 'better than Bailey's' is cheaper than Amazon
Tesco's award-winning Irish liqueur named 'better than Bailey's' is cheaper than Amazon The family-owned Coole Swan brand has been making award-winning Irish cream liqueur for years and now you can pick up a bottle for less at Tesco Coole Swan's Irish Cream Liqueur has gone down a treat in taste tests - and is now cheaper at Tesco (Image: Coole Swan ) For those who savour the creamy delight of Irish cream, a leisurely summer evening with a glass of this indulgent beverage is pure bliss. While Baileys may be the go-to choice for many, our shopping editor has another recommendation that's currently on offer at Tesco. Coole Swan, an award-winning Irish cream liqueur, is now retailing at £20 in selected Tesco outlets for Clubcard holders, down from its usual price of £26.50. This equates to a saving of £6.50 on a drink that some fans describe as 'like Baileys, but better.' It's also more affordable than Amazon's listed price of £25.95. Made with single-malt Irish whiskey, Belgian white chocolate, and fresh dairy cream sourced from the brand's family farm in Ireland, Coole Swan is a testament to premium ingredients and careful blending. One customer even claimed it's in a 'different league' compared to other beverages.

Our shopping editor, Narin Flanders, also endorses Coole Swan. She sampled it alongside Baileys, a perennial favourite, and was impressed. Shop the range £26.50 £20 Coole Swan Buy Now on Coole Swan Product Description Coole Swan is made with single malt Irish whiskey, Belgian white chocolate and fresh dairy cream from the brand's family farm in Ireland. Narin explained: "Putting the two glasses next to each other, it's easy to see one of the key differences in ingredients reflected in the colour of the glorious nectars. Coole Swan's Belgian white chocolate origins give it a lighter colour than Baileys' rumoured milk chocolate blend. You'd imagine that Coole Swan, being white chocolate-based, would taste sweeter, but to my surprise - and possibly due to the strength of the malt -it tasted more mellow, smoother, and had less of an initial kick. "While I love Baileys, for me, the taste comes in stages - you have the initial sweet scent and then the first hit of warmth when you swallow, and then it's eased by the cream that extinguishes the fire. Coole Swan has all of the same elements, but somehow they blend in a way where you get them all simultaneously - there's no fiery undertone and no sweet hit; it's just all beautifully, perfectly balanced from the first sip." Narin continued: "Both drinks have a similar alcohol volume - Baileys is 17% while Coole Swan is 16% ABV - but Coole Swan feels less boozy, making it drinkable to the point of moreish. But for me, there's one thing that makes Coole Swan a next-level Irish cream choice and worth the slightly more expensive price tag." Coole Swan has won several awards, including Double Gold at the San Francisco Wine & Spirits Awards (Image: Coole Swan ) While there are numerous alternatives on the market, Hotel Chocolat's Espresso Martini flavoured vodka liqueur (£23) stands out, often described as a liquid tiramisu. Another contender is Micil Connemara Irish Cream Liqueur, albeit at a slightly steeper price of £27.67. Turning our attention back to Coole Swan, the brand has garnered over 1,200 reviews and boasts an impressive 4.7-star average rating on Amazon. In a similar vein, Tesco customers have awarded the liqueur a remarkable 4.7 out of five stars. One particularly pleased customer praised its superior quality, stating: "This is so beautiful, creamy and a better class of liqueur. Move over, Baileys, there's a new drink in town." Article continues below On the other hand, a different shopper found it to be: "Nice drink but too sweet." Yet another reviewer was effusive in their praise: "The most delicious Irish cream liqueur I have ever tasted. Creamy, luxuriously smooth and very moreish. The taste of alcohol is not overwhelming either, which I find with Baileys and other Irish creams. Don't think I could go back to anything else after trying this; the only downside is the price."
