Chinola Fresh Fruit Liqueurs Adds Guava Expression to Portfolio
Chinola Fresh Fruit Liqueurs launches Chinola Guava Liqueur, the fourth expression in its award-winning lineup. Crafted in the Dominican Republic using 100% fresh pink guava, the new release continues the brand's commitment to showcasing authentic tropical flavors through a farm-to-bottle approach.
"Guava is at the center of what we believe is the next major flavor renaissance behind the bar, and in many ways it feels like we're returning to our roots with Passion Fruit," says CEO and Co-Founder Andrew Merinoff. "When we first launched Chinola, there was a real need to educate both consumers and bartenders on what fresh passion fruit actually was, how it was grown, and how it should taste in a cocktail, and we believe guava is now at a similar moment."
It's a gap Chinola, already recognized for bringing fresh, authentic tropical flavors to the category, is uniquely positioned to address.
"Most guava products on the market today rely on concentrates, purees, or artificial flavor profiles, so there has never really been a true benchmark for what fresh guava should taste like behind the bar," says Merinoff.
Chinola's fresh guava base is complemented by layers of tropical melon, ripe pear, and tangy strawberry, creating a bright, approachable profile defined by its juicy sweetness and natural sweet-tart balance, designed for both cocktails and easy sipping at a low 21% ABV. Naturally rosy-pink in hue with no added color, Chinola Guava adds a vibrant pop of color to cocktails while elevating presentation behind the bar.
Availability: Chinola Guava Liqueur ($32.99, 750ml) is available for pre-order via ShopChinola.com, with a national retail rollout through summer and full U.S. distribution expected in the second half of 2026.
