Aker English Rosé Aperitif is the result of a collaboration between English wine producer Chapel Down and spirits distiller Capreolus Distillery and it speaks to consumers who are looking for premium products made with all-natural ingredients and without sugary preservatives. From blossoms, roots and spices to wormwood, the aperitif is brimming with English botanical flavors. For a lighter and longer drinking experience, the product is bottled at 17% ABV.
The Aker Perfect Serve comes in an ice-filled wine glass, topped with tonic or soda and garnished with an English strawberry and sprig of home-grown mint.
As a uniquely English aperitif brand, Aker is on a mission to tap into rising consumer awareness around health, provenance and the "thirst for appreciating all things home-grown."
