New Amsterdam® Vodka Continues to Grow With New Tropical Flavor Offering

MODESTO, Calif., April 1, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Following a year of unprecedented growth, New Amsterdam Spirits announces the national launch of the latest addition to its premium portfolio, New Amsterdam Mango Flavored Vodka. This vodka is made with fruit flavors and 100% American grain, and like New Amsterdam Vodka and the brand's other flavored offerings, offers unparalleled smoothness as a result of its five times distillation and triple-filtered process.

New Amsterdam Master Distiller David Warter compares New Amsterdam Mango Flavored Vodka to biting into a fresh, juicy Alphonso Mango. "This new flavored vodka is layered with tropical fruit aromas of papaya and passion fruit, with a finish that is crisp and refreshing," details Warter, "Similar to all other flavored vodkas in the New Amsterdam portfolio, this offering is smooth enough to enjoy straight or on the rocks, but also makes for a versatile ingredient that can be used in a myriad of different cocktails." 

"Our growing fan base has been asking for a mango flavored vodka, and we're excited to deliver it," said Gerard Thoukis, Senior Director of Marketing at New Amsterdam Spirits. "New Amsterdam believes that great things happen when people come together, and by adding another flavored vodka to our portfolio, we can provide our consumers with a new way to congregate over drinks and enjoy New Amsterdam in their town."

New Amsterdam Mango Flavored Vodka is available nationally for a suggested retail price of $14.99/750mL, and is sold alongside New Amsterdam Gin, New Amsterdam Vodka, and New Amsterdam Red Berry, Peach, Citron, Coconut, Pineapple and Orange Flavored Vodkas.
