London-based distillery Doghouse has released a chilli bacon flavoured vodka, using Habanero chillies for the perfect kick to a classic Bloody Mary.
The new release follows the creation of the distillery’s Baller Vodka in 2018, the only vodka made from scratch in London.
The new liquid is produced using the distillery’s Baller wheat vodka, Mexican grown Habanero chillies and a secret ingredient which gives it the bacon sweet smokiness. According to its makers, it is a very powerful and flavoursome expression with spicy warmth, luring hints of bacon combined with Baller’s silky, smooth characteristics.
Baller ‘Chilli Bacon’ Vodka can be enjoyed simply as a mixer with dry ginger ale and squeezed lime over ice. Alternatively, the liquid can be used to create a punchy twist on the iconic Bloody Mary cocktail due to its fruity aroma and spicy and smoky finish.
Braden Saunders, founder of Doghouse Distillery said: “With the launch of Baller ‘Chilli Bacon’ Vodka, a first-of-its-kind flavour, we wanted to bring something new to the market that not only excites consumers but also gives bartenders another way to deliver great tasting cocktails such as the Bloody Mary.
“We are really happy with the outcome as we feel we have a high-quality flavoured vodka, using a totally unique blend, which gives the liquid a taste like no other. As flavoured vodka continues to grow in popularity amongst consumers, our new vodka innovation is set to disrupt the category, providing people with a flavour they have never experienced before.”
The latest innovation from the Battersea-bred distillery is available now in a 70cl and 5cl bottle format on Master of Malt, Whisky Exchange and the Doghouse Distillery website as well as selected wholesalers and premium retailers.
