Amarula Cream 750ml is one of the world’s most beloved cream liqueurs, capturing the essence of Africa in every sip. It is crafted from the exotic marula fruit, which grows wild in the sub-Saharan region and is known as the “elephant tree” due to the animals’ fondness for its fruit. Once harvested by hand, the fruit is carefully fermented, distilled, and aged in French oak barrels for two years, before being blended with the finest fresh cream. This process gives Amarula its unique character, making it a truly iconic liqueur with global appeal.

Product History & Little-Known Facts
The marula tree, which grows exclusively in Africa, plays a vital role in African culture and ecosystems. The fruit is harvested once a year, typically in late summer, making Amarula a product of nature’s rhythm. The marula fruit’s use in Amarula dates back to 1989, when the first bottle of this signature liqueur was produced. The liqueur has since gained a devoted following worldwide, celebrated for its authenticity and connection to African heritage.
A little-known fact is that the marula tree is protected in South Africa, as the fruit is considered sacred by many local communities. Amarula also supports wildlife conservation efforts, particularly those focused on the preservation of African elephants.
