In 1971 a team of product developers set out to create a uniquely Irish drink combining Irish cream and whiskey, aimed at the US market and American tastes. Baileys was eventually released in 1974. As of 2003 it was the highest selling liqueur brand in the world. Baileys claims it is the first of the cream liqueurs, and while this is debatable, it is the first of the Irish Cream liqueurs. It became very popular and was soon followed by many other Irish, French, Scottish, rum, tequila, and a slew of other cream liqueurs.Baileys Irish Cream Original- 17%abv / 34 proof and is very thick and creamy in body. The flavor has a very sweet, thick, vanilla, buttery toffee, whipped cream, malt, hints of coffee and chocolate, egg taste; and leaves a slippery beaten eggy coating on my tongue. It's not bad, but not great.
