    Isn't their coffee liqueuer like bailleys made from wine instead of whiskey? I know they used to sell ones years ago that was wine based

    No. It's made with Scotch whisky rather than Irish. A slightly stronger alcoholic taste perhaps but virtually indistinguishable from the branded version.

    My mum had a bottle for Christmas and we all enjoyed it. Not quite the original but at that price a excellent alternative!
    A waist is a terrible thing to mind.
  • The Bailey's equivalent in Aldi is lovely, and I think only £4.99 - don't ask me what it was made of i.e. wine or whisky, the bottle's been put in the recycle bin!
