Liberté White Rum and Deluxe Coconut Ice Sweets The origins of rum date back to antiquity. Development of the fermented drink, produced from sugarcane juice, is believed to have first occurred in ancient India and China. Now, it’s become a global favourite. Flavouring rum with sweet coconut is a time-honoured classic, which became most popular in the later 20th century, so the irresistible festive coconut candy couldn’t be more fitting to balance the faintly spiced taste of rum. An ideal treat for any coconut lover!

Deluxe Irish Cream Liqueur and Deluxe Mini Cheesecakes with Mixed Berries Recipes for liqueurs have been found in Egyptian tombs but it was when Catherine De Medici wed Henry II of France that the culture of liqueur drinking was introduced.

Dundalgan Irish Whiskey and Deluxe Feinste Pralines
5
Irish whiskey was one of the earliest distilled drinks in Europe, developed around the 12th century. It’s believed that Irish monks brought the technique of distilling perfumes back to Ireland from their travels to the Mediterranean countries around 1000 A.D and then modified them to obtain a drinkable spirit. For whiskey connoisseurs and devoted chocoholics, there is nothing like a pairing between the Duldalgan Irish Whiskey and Deluxe Feinste Pralines for the perfect after-dinner combination. The assorted pralines, of dark and milk cocoa shells with soft fillings, blend divinely with the pleasantly fruity and malty notes of the whiskey.
