The Glenlivet releases Cocktail Capsule Collection in Hong Kong
The Glenlivet has introduced the Cocktail Capsule Collection with four unique flavours in Hong Kong, bringing a new cocktail experience to the market.
Single malt whisky brand The Glenlivet from Speyside Scotland is launching their The Glenlivet Cocktail Capsule Collection in Hong Kong.
Debuted in October 2019 in London, Hong Kong is the first city in Asia receiving this unprecedented and limited cocktail capsule collection. The capsules are very sustainable, they were made using a combination of algae extracts sourced from the sea in Brittany, France.
It is completely vegan-friendly and gluten-free, chewy in terms of texture and is slightly sweet, resembling the character of cassava. The capsules are fully edible, each with a shot of cocktail and no glasses are needed as consumers can just pop them in mouth. The Glenlivet hopes to set trend to a new way of drinking with a more convenient and mobile-friendly method to enjoy quality cocktail anytime anywhere.
The cocktail capsules come in 4 flavours: Paloma, The Glenlivet Sour, Scottish Coffee and The Last King.All made and modified based on the preferences of Hong Kong people on cocktails.
The Glenlivet Sour is a remake of the classic Whisky Sour using The Glenlivet 12 YO Excellence, a must-try for single malt whisky lovers, mellow with a lasting tangy aroma. The Last King is a pineapple flavoured cocktail, the second flavour of the capsule collection, tropical and refreshing, the perfect cocktail for hazy summer afternoons. The third flavour is Paloma, a citrusy cocktail heavily infused with grapefruit extract, enhancing its vinegary taste, deemed to excite your taste buds! The last flavour of the collection is Scottish Coffee, which is a twist of the Irish Coffee.
To address the Capsule Collection’s grand entrance, The Glenlivet is collaborating with an array of local bars and coffee shops for the promotion in launching The Glenlivet Whisky flight. The whisky flight will start with a whisky shot, followed by a whisky cocktail and a cocktail capsule. While enjoying the single malt cocktail capsules, consumers will also get to learn more about the brand and the evolution of whisky consumption over the years.
