In the mineral-rich soil of Bohol, the Ube root grows with a deep, floral character that is unique to the island. Destileria Barako captures this heritage in their signature cream liqueur, blending the earthy "purple gold" with artisanal sugarcane vodka and velvety cream. At 17% ABV, it offers a refined, silky texture that balances the ube’s natural nuttiness with a gentle, spirited warmth. It is a quiet tribute to Filipino craftsmanship, distilled into a vibrant, botanical spirit.
This tropical cream liqueur is built around ube (oo-beh) - a vibrant purple yam from the Philippines, known for its naturally striking colour and distinctive notes of vanilla and subtle nuttiness. It’s an ingredient loved for generations, now reimagined into something refreshingly new.
The result is a smooth, velvety liqueur that feels lighter than you’d expect - perfectly balanced with soft vanilla sweetness and a gentle nutty finish, without ever becoming overly rich. It’s the kind of drink that works just as well on a warm evening as it does after dinner, offering a tropical twist on a classic cream liqueur.
It’s also incredibly versatile. Serve it chilled or over ice for an easy summer pour, stir it into an iced coffee, pair it with desserts, or shake it into a vibrant cocktail that stands out on any menu.
However you serve it, it brings a sense of occasion - and a taste of the Philippines - into every glass.
