Black Velvet Peach Canadian Whisky, 35% ABV.

Heaven Hill Brands has announced the launch of a new peach-flavored whisky under its Black Velvet Canadian whisky brand.

The new expression, which is now available across the U.S., clocks in at 35% ABV and joins Black Velvet’s portfolio of flavored whiskies, including apple and toasted caramel. Heaven Hill completed its acquisition of Black Velvet from Constellation Brands in 2019 for $266 million.

“Whether you’re tasting Black Velvet for the first time, or you’re a loyal fan of the brand, we feel confident Peach will be a hit with consumers,” said Molly Vincent, Heaven Hill senior brand manager. “We’re excited to continue to expand upon our flavour offerings – and with one of our hottest summers coming to a close, we feel this refreshing addition couldn’t have come at a better time.”
