SVEDKA Vodka Introduces Newest Flavor Into Its Award-Winning Portfolio

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 19, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- SVEDKA Vodka, the second largest imported vodka brand in the United States (Impact, 2012), is pleased to announce its latest flavor addition to the portfolio: SVEDKA Peach.  

A blend of imported Swedish vodka with aromatic notes of ripe peaches that produce a warm, sweet entry followed by a slight, crisp, pear finish, SVEDKA Peach provides a multi-sensory flavor experience.  This subtly sweet and deliciously fruity peach flavored vodka is a nostalgic yet unexpected interpretation on a flavor favorite. SVEDKA Peach is an approachable, yet complex product and is a welcome addition to the SVEDKA line of innovative offerings. Versatile and flavorful, SVEDKA Peach mixes well in sweet, or savory, cocktails – and may also be sipped on its own, over ice.

SVEDKA Peach will be available nationwide beginning August 2014 (varies by market) in 50ML (MSRP $1.99), 375ML (MSRP $6.99), 750ML (MSRP $12.99), 1L (MSRP $16.99) and 1.75L (MSRP $21.99).

"Our newest flavor launch is reflective of our continued desire to deliver enjoyable flavors that are both familiar and innovative," said Diana Pawlik, SVEDKA Vodka's Vice President of Marketing. "SVEDKA Peach is sure to please our diverse consumer base while continuing to offer them fresh and varied flavored vodkas to enjoy."

SVEDKA Peach is the newest flavor to be launched stateside by the Swedish-imported vodka brand, which also boasts a wide range of tasty and innovative flavors including SVEDKA Strawberry Lemonade, SVEDKA Mango Pineapple, SVEDKA Colada, SVEDKA Strawberry Colada, SVEDKA Orange Cream Pop and SVEDKA's Core Flavors – Cherry, Citron, Clementine, Raspberry and Vanilla.
