The Northern Lights cannabis-flavored vodka is being launched by the Real English Drinks Distillery as part of its Chronic premium alcohol range that will offer curious consumers a great option to pick up.
The spirit features a 37.5% ABV and is being launched into the market with a promotion for independent retailers to receive one free bottle for every five they purchase as part of a case deal. The product speaks to the increased demand for cannabis products in the UK.
Master Distiller Neil Patterson commented on the new Northern Lights cannabis-flavored vodka saying, "The UK is now the second-largest consumer of cannabinoids in the world and the vodka category is in growth, largely driven by flavour innovation. The timing is very deliberate. There will be shoppers curious to try the taste, sure, but for us, this is a truly superb drink and the RRP reflects that.”
