What is an Yellow Cream Liquor? (Not Bailey's Irish Cream)?

I traveled to California and on a day trip to Mexico (6 years ago) ; I walked in to a liquor store and asked about the price of Bailey's Irish Cream. The store clerk suggested we by something not imported and gave us a brown tall bottle with liquor that was creamy, sweet, yellow, and taste a little like eggnog. What might this drink be called, if I wanted to buy it in the USA?What is an Yellow Cream Liquor? (Not Bailey's Irish Cream)?
Its called Rompope. Try upscale liquor stores.What is an Yellow Cream Liquor? (Not Bailey's Irish Cream)?
Carolais or St. Brennan's are both very good Bailey's knock offs. Carolais is in a tall bottle. It might be what you are thinking of. I might have the spelling wrong.
There are a few I know of:


Sheridans Perfect Pour (coffee flavored)


Rompope (Mexican Egg %26amp; Cream Liqueur)


Amarula Cream Liqueur (african liqueur made from Marula fruit)


Carolans Irish Cream


Irish Velvet Liqueur (Irish Cream)





It may have also been Advocaat. It's creamy, sweet, yellow and taste a little like eggnog. But I don't know a brand that sells it in a brown bottle.
Don鈥檛 know one from Mexico- the others similar to Bailey鈥檚- are Ryan鈥檚, Caroline鈥檚, and St. Brennan. Also E%26amp;J (brandy) Cask %26amp; Cream is good too. Now, there鈥檚 one called Amarula (from Africa I think). Not terribly expensive- It tastes like melted ice cream- very good!
It may be Amaretto.
