Tesco axes popular alcoholic drink and shoppers left 'really upset'

Tesco has confirmed a popular booze product has been discontinued. Tesco, which is rivalled by the likes of Lidl, Aldi, Sainsbury's, Morrisons, Asda and more, spoke out on Twitter, now X, after concerned customers got in touch over social media.

Tesco axed a popular boozy drink from shelves as it confirmed an item has been discontinued with shoppers left gutted. The supermarket discontinued its Finest salted caramel cream liqueur, it has confirmed in an update online.

One shopper typed "Tesco, why would you discontinue your finest salted caramel liqueur? This really upsets me." Tesco then responded: "Good morning, thanks for getting in touch - this has been discontinued due to a range change."

Another said: "These are amazing!" A product description online for the £13 bottles reads: "Hints of caramel & sea salt in rich double cream. Aromas of caramel with hints of Irish single malt whiskey enveloped in velvety Ballyrashane double cream, sprinkled with sea salt."

"Taste amazing!!!..Just as lush as the leading brands.." a fan said. "Feel sorry for the previous review couple that got a 'duff' bottle. We bought a bottle most weeks. Perfect as a nightcap or instead of a pudding. Just Yum!!!!" another five-star review said.

"I'm guessing by the other wonderful comments that me and my wife must have had a duff bottle, neither of us can drink it due to how incredibly salty it is! We couldn't taste much else, and that was with ice! incredibly disappointed as we were so looking forward to it," another said.

But a fellow fan typed: "I am now addicted to this product. There are many other brands out there producing salted caramel/caramel or toffee liquor but this has them all beaten hands down!!! It is also THE most difficult product to find.

"I have tried five different Tescos this week without success. I even ordered six bottles to be delivered - and they were unavailable on the day. Hopefully it will be available again soon. It's lovely poured over ice cream (or anything else!!!), delicious "on the rocks" and simply wonderful poured into a coffee.

"As I said, I'm addicted!"
