Discover the limited edition Amarula Cream exclusive to duty free

Some drinks just seem to perfectly embody the country or continent of their origins. Take Amarula Cream, for example, it’s synonymous with the vibrancy of Africa.  

The circumstances have to be just right in order to create Amarula. The Marula tree only grows across Africa’s subequatorial plains and its fruit can only be harvested during the hot summer months. The vibrant yellow Marula fruit is gathered by hand before being de-stoned. 

The history of Marula is as rich as its flavour. It’s thought that the Marula tree dates back to 10,000 BC and its fruit has long been revered in Africa because it is naturally bursting with vitality. Marula fruit contains four-times more vitamin C than your average orange. 

This lush, plum-shaped fruit is crushed and the pulp is fermented. The juice is then distilled and allowed to mature in French oak barrels for at least two years in order to develop its unique flavour. When its two-years are up, cream is added to round out the spicy vanilla flavour. The resulting smooth and creamy liqueur is one that we all know and love. 

Now, in this duty free exclusive, Amarula Cream is dressed in a limited edition sleeve. The renowned brand has teamed up with talented designers and artists from across Africa to create a covetable African Design Collection. From fashion to art and from textiles to jewellery, each of these four bottles demonstrates the best of African arts and crafts. They convey the energy and cultural diversity of this beautiful continent. With four designs to collect, will you be tempted by just one, or all of them?
