Crown Royal is set to launch a peach-flavoured whisky next month.

This limited-edition beverage is claimed to combine the brand’s smooth whisky with the sweetness of Georgia peaches.

It combined this peach flavour with vanilla and light notes of warm spice and oak.

Diageo North America whiskey senior vice-president Sophie Kelly said: “As a leader in the whiskey business, Crown Royal continues to take pride in ensuring we are ahead of the trends and creating high-quality products that help feed whiskey drinkers’ desire to experiment.

“Crown Royal Peach is the perfect limited-time offering because the taste is undeniably delicious, great for summertime occasions, on the rocks or mixed with iced tea.”

With 35% alcohol-by-volume (ABV), Crown Royal Peach flavoured whisky is packed in a glass-cut bottle and will be available in the brand’s signature box and bag.

Beginning March this year, the peach-flavoured whisky will be available for purchase at a suggested retail price (SRP) of $24.99 for a 750ml bottle.

In May last year, Crown Royal released a limited-edition bottle of Crown Royal Texas Mesquite.

The beverage combines the smoky flavour of Texas mesquite wood with the smoothness of Crown Royal De Luxe.

Diageo offers a range of brands, including Johnnie Walker, Crown Royal, Bulleit and Buchanan’s whiskies; Smirnoff, Cîroc and Ketel One vodkas; and Captain Morgan, Baileys, Don Julio, Tanqueray and Guinness.
