🥃 Cîroc Pineapple
Cîroc Pineapple is a pineapple-flavoured vodka from Cîroc, 37.5% ABV (75 proof) per Difford's Guide; launched in Europe in March 2015, in North America in 2014.
Cîroc Pineapple is the pineapple line of flavoured vodkas from Cîroc, made in France. According to Difford's Guide, it was launched in Europe in March 2015, after its North American release in 2014. At 37.5% ABV (75 proof) it is stronger than Red Berry or Coconut.
According to the official Cîroc website, all Cîroc vodkas are made from French grapes and distilled five times, so the pineapple taste is added to a grape base. A Difford's Guide taster described the aroma as dried pineapple with white pepper and mango, and the taste as soft and sweet, more artificial than fresh pineapple. This is the view of one review.
Why this matters to you. Pineapple is stronger than the 35% versions, so the bottles are not interchangeable. Compare it with Cîroc Apple and Cîroc Coconut, and with the classic Cîroc at 40% ABV. The WHO reminds us that there is no safe level of alcohol consumption.
