# Condiment-Inspired Liqueurs Archie Rose's 'ArchieMite' is Based on the Yeasty Taste of Vegemite By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2019-05-03 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/archiemite References: [finance.yahoo](https://finance.yahoo.com/news/b-b-australian-distillery-invented-175936820.html) & [archierose.au](https://archierose.com.au/shop/product/archiemite-buttered-toast-spirit) ArchieMite is a creation from Australian distillery Archie Rose that is said to have a buttery, yeasty flavor profile that's similar to Vegemite. To create the Vegemite liqueur, the distillery used more than 55 pounds of butter and 30 pounds of sourdough to emulate the taste of buttered toast. As Archie Rose puts it, its product has "a big, mitey character at the front followed by biscuity, bready notes." While many liqueurs explore sweet notes, this one plays up buttery, umami and savory flavors, offering an unconventional way for people to experience a familiar product. As Vegemite is a polarizing spread, the limited-edition Vegemite-flavored alcohol product promises to be just as unique and likely elicit similar responses in those who are adventurous enough to try it. Just 3,000 of ArchieMite are set to be produced this spring. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.0/10 - Popularity: 28% | Activity: 54% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Condiment-inspired Liqueurs:** Opportunity to explore new flavor profiles and create disruptive products in the liqueur industry. - **Savory/salty Flavored Alcohol:** The rise of unconventional flavors like Vegemite in alcohol could create new customer segments and increase sales. - **Limited Edition Products:** Creating limited edition products can create a sense of exclusivity and urgency for consumers. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Liqueur:** The liqueur industry can diversify flavor profiles by exploring unique and savory flavors. - **Condiment:** Condiment companies can collaborate with distilleries to create unique and innovative products. - **Alcohol:** Incorporating unconventional flavors like condiments in alcohol can create a new market segment within the industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Aussie Condiment Coffees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vegemite-x-farm-girl.md) - [Spreadable Non-Alcoholic Aperitifs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flavored-marmelade.md) - [High-End Ingredient Yeast Spreads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marmite-truffle.md) - [Molasses Rum Whiskeys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/high-test-molasses-rum-cask-whiskey.md) - [Collectible Toast Merchandise](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vegemite-1.md) - [Unconventionally Flavored Distillates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diistil.md) - [Savory Spread-Inspired Cheeses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheddar-cheese-and-marmite.md) - [Savory Seafood Spirits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anchovy-vermouth.md) - [Aromatic Cinnamon-Smoked Spirits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/archie-rose-cinnamon-smoked.md)
