Ciroc Peach 750ML

Ciroc Peach 750ML is a French grape-based peach-flavored vodka bottled at 35% ABV (70 proof) in a 750ml format. What separates it from the crowded flavored vodka field is its foundation: rather than grain or potato spirit, Ciroc starts with fine French grapes — Mauzac Blanc and Ugni Blanc — cold-fermented and five-times distilled, with the final pass through a traditional copper pot still at the Distillerie de Chevanceaux in the Cognac region of France.

Production & Heritage

Ciroc is produced by Maison Villevert, drawing on the distilling traditions of the Cognac region. The base spirit relies on two grape varietals: Mauzac Blanc sourced from the Gaillac appellation in southwest France, and Ugni Blanc grown in the greater Cognac area. Cold fermentation preserves the delicate aromatics of the grapes before the spirit undergoes four distillations in column stills, followed by a fifth and final distillation in a traditional copper pot still at the Distillerie de Chevanceaux. This grape-based process yields a naturally gluten-free spirit with a smoother, slightly creamier texture than grain vodkas. The peach expression infuses that clean base with natural peach flavoring, resulting in a fruit-forward profile that retains the silky character of the original Ciroc spirit.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Ripe, freshly picked peach dominates the nose immediately, followed by subtle hints of tropical fruit and a faint suggestion of orchard blossoms. There is a light sweetness on the bouquet without any harsh alcohol burn.

Taste: The entry is juicy and succulent, delivering a burst of ripe peach flavor that feels true to the fruit rather than artificially candied. At mid-palate, a smooth and creamy texture emerges — a hallmark of the grape-based distillation — along with gentle tropical undertones. A slight bubblegum note appears briefly before giving way to a clean, balanced sweetness.

Finish: The finish is clean and silky with moderate length, leaving behind a lingering echo of fresh peach and mild warmth. It fades gracefully without cloying sweetness, making it easy to sip or mix.

How to Drink Ciroc Peach

Chilled and served neat or over ice, Ciroc Peach works well as a straightforward sipper thanks to its lower 35% ABV and naturally smooth texture. It truly shines, however, as a cocktail ingredient. A Peach Bellini is the most natural match — the grape-based spirit echoes the traditional Prosecco backbone while amplifying the peach. A Peach Cosmo (substituting Ciroc Peach for standard vodka with cranberry and lime) gains depth from the grape distillate's creamier body. A simple Peach Lemonade Spritz — Ciroc Peach, fresh lemon juice, and soda water — highlights the fruit character for a refreshing warm-weather drink.

Why Ciroc Peach?

The core distinction here is raw material: while the vast majority of flavored vodkas start with grain or potato neutral spirit, Ciroc Peach begins with French Mauzac Blanc and Ugni Blanc grapes, cold-fermented and distilled five times — a process borrowed from the Cognac tradition. That grape foundation delivers a perceptibly creamier, rounder texture that carries the peach flavoring more naturally than a standard grain vodka can. The result is a flavored spirit that tastes like ripe fruit layered over silk rather than peach extract poured into alcohol. For anyone looking to upgrade their flavored vodka rotation with a genuinely different base spirit, Ciroc Peach makes a compelling case.
