Real McCoy has introduced a new flavour to its growing range of flavour-led spirits with the launch of Cinnamon Doughnut Whiskey Liqueur – a nostalgic new release built on an American whiskey and bourbon base.

Designed to blur the line between after-dinner drinks and dessert cocktails, the 30% ABV release delivers notes of warm vanilla, cinnamon sugar and freshly baked doughnut, balanced by a smooth whiskey finish.

Following the success of the brand’s Salted Caramel and Buttered Popcorn variants, the new release continues Real McCoy’s focus on approachable, fun, flavour-driven serves designed for entertaining, nights in, and casual social occasions.

“With Real McCoy, we’re focused on flavours people already know and love, but delivered in a way that still feels balanced and genuinely drinkable,” says Johann Einarson, Brand Manager at VOK Beverages.

“It’s nostalgic and indulgent, but the whiskey backbone is still there – which is what makes it work equally well sipped over ice, shot cold, or mixed into cocktails.”

To mark the launch, the brand has also developed a series of signature serves designed around the growing popularity of dessert-style cocktails and after-dinner drinks.

Signature Serves:

• Espresso Cinnamon-tini
  A dessert-style twist on the classic espresso martini featuring Real McCoy Cinnamon Doughnut Whiskey Liqueur, fresh espresso and coffee liqueur, finished with cinnamon sugar.
• Boozy Affogato
  Vanilla ice cream, fresh espresso, and 30ml of Real McCoy Cinnamon Doughnut Whiskey Liqueur. A richer, more indulgent take on the Italian classic.
• Cinnamon Doughnut Highball
  Real McCoy Cinnamon Doughnut Whiskey Liqueur topped with cola over ice for an easy-drinking serve with notes of vanilla, spice and caramelised sugar.

Real McCoy Cinnamon Doughnut Whiskey Liqueur is available now nationally through independent bottle shops and online.
