Bacardi has announced that it will be launching Grey Goose Essences in the UK in three flavors -- a decision made by the brand following its already highly successful rollout in the US.
For those unfamiliar, Grey Goose Essences are a new product made with Grey Goose vodka and infused with cold-distilled botanicals and real fruit essences. In addition, the company has said that following the UK launch of Grey Goose Essences the brand will eventually roll out a ready-to-drink vodka spritz version featuring a 4.5% ABV per 250ml can.
“We know consumers are looking for natural yet flavourful tasting drinks and trading up to more premium quality products, with many choosing to drink less, but better. When you start with quality ingredients, you can make a delicious cocktail easily, it can be as simple as just adding soda or tonic," said Grey Goose Brand Director, Kate Whitehead.
