The adoption of distilled spirits is being significantly driven by the rising purchasing power of consumers and increasing demand for beverages with natural flavors. The spirits sector is led by millennials and the young-age population who demand innovative and higher-end products. Therefore, the companies are adding natural flavors to improve the quality of the flavor of alcoholic drinks. Currently, there is a wide range of flavors available for use in spirits, beer, cider, and wine. Distilled spirits are flavored utilizing herbs, fruits, chocolates, botanicals and spices, to offer special taste in their alcoholic beverages and meet customers’ requirement. The increasing availability of distilled spirits with innovative natural flavors is leading to a significant range of options for consumers that allows consumers to opt for the alcoholic beverage of their choice.

The presence of several distilled spirit manufacturers includes Remy Cointreau SA, Pernod-Ricard SA, Brown-Forman Corp., Diageo plc, Marie Brizard Wine & Spirits, Lapostolle SA, Constellation Brands Inc., and Berentzen-Gruppe AG among others is further anticipated to make a significant contribution to the growth of the distilled spirit market. These major market players are constantly focusing on new product launches and widening their product lines to remain competitive in the market. For instance, in April 2018, Ciroc had launched coffee-infused Skyy vodka and a watermelon-flavored vodka to expand the company’s product line. Additionally, in June 2019, Diageo Plc opened the Roe & Co Irish whiskey distillery that contributes to the company’s growth. Additionally, rapid R&D activities in the development of the product and product innovation are the key strategies of the company.
