New Whiskey Flavor Range Launched<br />

Synergy Flavours has launched a<br />

natural whiskey flavor range and a<br />

whiskey cocktail flavor, designed for<br />

both alcoholic and low- and no-alcohol<br />

ready-to-drink (RTD) products. The<br />

new range has been created to support<br />

manufacturers amidst growing demand<br />

for cocktail bar-quality RTD options.<br />

The range includes bourbon, Tennessee,<br />

fruity, and peaty whiskey flavors, as<br />

well as a traditional ‘old fashioned’<br />

cocktail flavor. This flavor range offers<br />

manufacturers flexibility in developing<br />

authentic RTD products, and allows<br />

customization due to each flavour’s<br />

carefully crafted sensory profile.<br />

Each whiskey flavor has a sensory<br />

description highlighting the key flavor<br />

attributes, so developers can select<br />

the right profile for their beverage<br />

using this information. Partnering with<br />

Synergy allows manufacturers to use<br />

the whiskey flavors alongside other<br />

Synergy solutions, including natural<br />

flavors, extracts, and essences, to<br />

develop complex and premium cocktail<br />

bar-quality RTD products.<br />

Vicky Berry, Senior European Business<br />

Development Manager at Synergy<br />

Flavours, comments on the launch: “RTD<br />

cocktails are becoming increasingly<br />

popular and, interestingly, we are seeing<br />

more activity in both non-alcoholic<br />

categories and beverages at 8% alcohol<br />

by volume (ABV) and above. For low- and<br />

no-alcohol products, the new portfolio<br />

helps our customers create drinks<br />

with flavors reminiscent of alcohol,<br />

replicating the sophistication of whiskeybased<br />

options that consumers enjoy. In<br />

beverages at 8% ABV and above, our<br />

whiskey flavors help manufacturers<br />

to reduce the amount of whiskey they<br />

require in their RTD cocktail, perhaps<br />

opting for a less expensive alcohol<br />

instead, while maintaining a premium<br />

flavor at a lower price point.”<br />

Charlotte Spitzner, Flavor Research<br />

Analyst at Synergy, expands on the<br />

science behind the new flavor range:<br />

“Detailed analytical and sensory insights<br />

are crucial when creating distinct<br />

whiskey profiles such as these, as the<br />

chemistry of whiskey is complex with<br />

many different flavors and aromas due<br />

to how it is made. Our flavorists tasted<br />

and analyzed whiskeys from across the<br />

globe, then our flavor team blended<br />

extracts and natural aroma compounds<br />

to achieve the perfect balance and<br />
