Burnett’s Vodka Introduces Cucumber Lime Flavor

FOR RELEASE: For Immediate Release

BARDSTOWN, KY – Burnett’s Flavored Vodka is introducing Cucumber Lime, an exciting addition to its already diverse family of flavors. The new flavor will be available nationally in April.

The fresh cucumber taste with a squeeze of lime is right on target with growing consumer taste trends. Traditional fruit and refreshing, crisp flavors continue to lead the way in the Flavored Vodka category in which Burnett’s has proven to be a leader over the last 10 years. Burnett’s Flavored Vodkas are quadruple distilled, triple charcoal filtered and made with natural flavor, placing them among the purest Vodkas on the market.

“Cucumber Lime is a flavor that truly embodies what people love about Burnett’s Flavored Vodkas – it’s fresh, fun and flavorful,” said Reid Hafer, Senior Brand Manager. “Our consumers have come to expect new flavors like Cucumber Lime that mix easily with their favorite mixers. Cool and light with a hint of lime, Cucumber Lime is sure to please the palate.”

Cucumber Lime brings Burnett’s portfolio to a total of 37 flavors, which includes: Apple Berry, Blue Raspberry, Blackberry, Blueberry, Cherry, Cherry Cola, Cherry Limeade, Citrus, Coconut, Cranberry, Fruit Punch, Grape, Hot Cinnamon, Lime, Limeade, Mango, Mango Pineapple, Orange, Orange Cream, Peach, Pear, Pineapple, Pink Lemonade, Pomegranate, Raspberry, Red Berry, Ruby Red Grapefruit, Sour Apple, Strawberry, Strawberry Banana, Sugar Cookie, Sweet Tea, Tropical Fruit, Vanilla, Watermelon and Whipped Cream.

The product is available for a suggested retail price of $10.99 for the 750ml and is bottled at 35% alcohol by volume (70 proof).

Cucumber Lime will be available in four sizes: 50ml, 750ml, 1.0L and 1.75L. “New Flavor” hang tags will hang from the bottles of 750ml and 1.75L sizes for the first few months of shipping. The launch of the new flavor is supported by floor displays, a range of point of sale items, shelf facings, as well as sales education materials. The Burnett’s website (www.burnettsvodka.com) and the Burnett’s ‘More Recipes, More Fun’ Mobile App (available on Apple and Android devices) provide information and drink recipes for all flavors.
