VOK Beverages is shaking up the spirits scene with the launch of Real McCoy, an exciting new whiskey liqueur for sippers who crave flavour.
According to Johann Einarson from VOK Beverages, flavoured whiskey is no longer a trend, but an established drinks genre with a big fan base.
“With Real McCoy, we’ve created a product that not only taps into this demand but elevates the offering with craft, clarity and attitude. It’s accessible yet premium, highly versatile, and unapologetically bold – everything the new whiskey consumer is looking for.”

Two exciting debut flavours
Inspired by bootlegger, Bill McCoy of the prohibition era, Real McCoy’s flavoured range challenges whiskey norms by serving up big flavours, versatility and attitude.

- Real McCoy Salted Caramel Whiskey (30% ABV) is rich and indulgent, with notes of creamy vanilla and butterscotch.
- Real McCoy Buttered Popcorn Whiskey (30% ABV) is all about fresh popcorn and caramel, infused with toasted oak.
Each flavour is available in 700ml bottles (RRP $55) and 50ml minis (RRP $8), giving sippers the opportunity to test the waters before they go all in.

An all-occasions sip
One of the reasons flavoured whiskeys are booming amongst creative sippers is because of its versatility. Enjoy it neat in a gorgeous whisky glass, chill it for flavour-packed shots or get creative with cocktail recipes.
Here are some of the cocktails Real McCoy has shaken up with the new range:
- Espresso Martini – Featuring Salted Caramel Whiskey, it’s velvety and bold
- Whiskey Sour – This one combines the citrus tang of lemon with nutty Buttered Popcorn Whiskey
- Moscow Mule – Ginger and lime mix with Buttered Popcorn Whiskey for a fresh twist on an old favourite.

Real McCoy flavoured whiskey will be available nationally at Dan Murphy’s from May 2025, with other retailers to follow later.
