LIQUEUR SET TO TAKE ON WORLD

Lewis Road Creamery continues its mission to prove New Zealand can produce dairy products to rival the best in the world with the launch of a new cream liqueur. Combining Lewis Road’s passion for dairy with its penchant for chocolate, Lewis Road Creamery Chocolate Cream Liqueur is the perfect blend of rich cream and real chocolate with a touch of premium spirits for a truly adult treat.

“In our view, New Zealand produces the world’s best dairy products,” said Lewis Road Creamery founder Peter Cullinane. “So it got us thinking, why can’t we make a New Zealand cream liqueur to rival the world’s best? Put another why, if the Irish can do it, so can we!” The chocolate cream liqueur is a smooth and creamy 17 percent alcohol blend of fresh New Zealand cream, the finest 54 percent Belgian chocolate and triple distilled premium spirits.

“Lewis Road’s liqueur has a real depth of flavour with notes of fresh hazelnut, white pepper, creamy cashew and cacao,” said Lori Bahr, Lewis Road Creamery brand ambassador and bar manager at Ponsonby’s Bedford Soda & Liquor. The launch of Lewis Road Creamery Chocolate Cream Liqueur is Lew Road’s first foray outside of the supermarket, but one that was a natural progression for the brand.
