Synergy Flavours launches whiskey flavour range
US-based flavourings company Synergy Flavours is launching a range of natural whiskey flavours and a whiskey cocktail flavour, designed to be used in both alcoholic and low-and-no-alcohol ready-to-drink (RTD) products.
The flavours, which include bourbon, Tennessee, fruity, and peaty whiskey flavours, alongside the traditional ‘old fashioned’ cocktail flavour, each include a sensory description highlighting flavour attributes, providing developers with the information they need to use them.
While the flavours are primarily designed for drinks, Synergy Flavours suggests that they can be used for other products, such as a chocolate mousse.
“RTD cocktails are becoming increasingly popular and, interestingly, we are seeing more activity in both non-alcoholic categories and beverages at 8% alcohol by volume (ABV) and above,” said Vicky Berry, Synergy Flavours’ Senior European Business Development Manager.
“For low- and no-alcohol products, the new portfolio helps our customers create drinks with flavours reminiscent of alcohol, replicating the sophistication of whiskey-based options that consumers enjoy. In beverages at 8% ABV and above, our whiskey flavours help manufacturers to reduce the amount of whiskey they require in their RTD cocktail, perhaps opting for a less expensive alcohol instead, while maintaining a premium flavour at a lower price point.”
