Review: Irish Coffee Truffle Bar from Butlers Irish
Today we at last unwrapped the bundle of joy that is the Butler's Irish Coffee Truffle Bar from the good people at Butler's Irish Handmade Chocolates. The bar is made with real Jameson Irish whiskey, a product near and dear to my heart, and sounds absolutely lovely. Chocolate. Coffee. Irish Cream made with Jameson Whiskey.
I consider it my sacred duty to review this product.
First I want to address the packaging. I was sold on buying something from Butler's based on the packaging. The gold foil surrounding the bar is a nice touch and the outer wrap just screams class. I wasn't sure what variety to get until I read the ingredients on the back of the bar. When I saw the word 'Jameson' on the wrapper I knew what I was getting. Irish coffee truffle sounded wonderful and I am a fan of Jameson so it was an easy choice.
I popped the wrapper open and the bar looked pretty much like the picture on the wrapper - nothing too impressive but I'm not buying to look pretty. I found that it smelled like Irish cream more than coffee or chocolate and the aroma was pleasing. The bar itself is divided into smaller blocks so I broke one off. The first thing I noticed was that there is a thick sheet of chocolate on the bottom of this bar. It tasted fantastic. The Irish Coffee truffle filling was subtle. Maybe a bit too subtle. I got more of a milk chocolate taste than an Irish Coffe taste.
Overall I enjoyed it a lot. I'm looking forward to the next piece (I only had one) and that is a good sign. If forced to give it an numerical review I'd give it a solid 9. Not perfect but more than good.

A relative brought one of these back from a holiday in Ireland. Only trouble is, it was a present for my son.......anyway, I got to try a piece and I can confirm that it IS delicious! Sometimes liqueur-flavoured chocolate can be a bit too strong on the alcohol, and you lose the chocolate taste. Not so with this bar. I'd give it a 9 out of 10 also.

June, the only place I know of is Jungle Jim's International Market near Cincinnati, Ohio. I'm sure it's available somewhere else, I just don't have any idea where.

Thank you, you really write in a way everyone - including me :-) - can@is able to understand, even if someone does not know very much with these things. But what exactly do you mean with your second paragraph? Frank
