Coastal Stone Whisky, the whisky brand owned by Manly Spirits Co, has unveiled its first two RTD products, Whisky & Dry and Whisky & Cola. Both products champion the brand’s double grain whisky, a blend of multiple Australian grains matured in ex-Bourbon American Oak and ex-Australian Shiraz casks.
“I’m thrilled about the launch of Coastal Stone Whisky’s new ready-to-drink Whisky & Cola and Whisky & Dry, made with our award-winning double grain Whisky Xplore, right here in sunny Sydney,” said Dave Richards, Distillery Manager.
“This whisky has already revolutionised the realm of affordable Australian whisky, and we believe all Aussies deserve to enjoy THEIR whisky in every way possible, making it accessible to all.”
The first of the two releases, the Whisky & Dry, is crisp and easy-drinking with a smooth profile of vanilla, caramel, oak and spice. Alternatively, the Whisky & Cola is a mellow and sweet drop that champions honey, vanilla, toasted wood, and a subtle fruitiness.
“Our new RTDs blend rich, smooth whisky with the best dry ginger and cola for a quality session with mates,” said Richards.
To supplement the launch of its RTD range, Coastal Stone has launched a marketing campaign titled Official Spirit of Crushing CANada’s Spirit. For the campaign, Coastal Stone has pledged to sponsor every single member of the Australian team who manages to defeat a Canadian rival during the Paris Olympics.
Dave Richards said, “why jump into the ready-to-drink game? Simple. Aussies deserve a top-notch, homegrown alternative to Jack, Jim, and that Canadian fella… Aussie Whisky: Bold, Smooth, and Unapologetic, Outshining the Maple and Stars.”
