BEHIND THE BAR by David T. Kratt

TAKING NOTICE OF THE NOT SO OBVIOUS

Customers know it when they see it. They notice things like timely service and a pleasant personality.

It’s like walking out of a movie theatre and deciding whether you liked the movie. But just as most of us don’t really know what goes on behind the scenes of making a movie; most customers don’t really know what goes into providing good service. Here are a few examples of behind the scenes behind the bar: Good bartender / other bartender routine – Dividing the bar into sections can cause it. Customers coming in to see one bartender in particular could also cause it. And inexperienced bartenders may tend to do it when his or her co-bartender started out servicing a customer first. Feel free to add to this list the next time you find yourself giving customers a hands-off treatment. You don’t want to be the “other” bartender. You may not have landed the leading bartender role but you can earn best-supporting honors. Help cover the busier bartender’s section when you can. Make it a point to stop by customers who so far have been waited on only by your co-bartender. Say things like, “How are you doing tonight?” “Good to see you,” or “Are you doing okay here?” It’s a pleasure to be of service – Bartending is not just a job. Okay, it’s a job, but customers should never figure out that plot twist. Conceal any it’s-just-a-job attitude with good dialogue. Instead of saying nothing, you say things like, “It’s my pleasure,” “I’m on it!” or “You got it!”

Roll out the red carpet – Regulars are our bread and butter during the slow times and off-season; and they show us we’re doing something right. Take away our regulars and what do we have? Regulars are those people that attract people. But still, it’s easy to take regulars for granted. We get a little tired of seeing the same old faces every time we walk behind the bar, many are not the greatest tippers, some we’re not all that crazy about and a few, shall we say, are pains in the behind the scenes. Movie-goers have no idea what effort goes into good acting. But we do! Sometimes it takes quite the effort to not fall out of character with regulars. Now just remember to begin your “Best Actor Award” speech with, “I’d like to thank all the regulars….” Never play the typecast role – She quickly maneuvers her way toward the bar; then looks around before climbing into a barstool. The bartender slowly dislodges from his comfortable spot behind the bar. He tosses a cocktail napkin at her like a Frisbee and stone-faced says, “What do you need?” She thinks, is this bartender having a bad night or is he always this way? Well…which is it? You’re bored? Fatigued? You just got a bad tip? An annoying customer is making you cranky? You’re in one of your moods? You’re burnt out by working with the public? Good bartenders never spoil a happy ending for customers, especially with an opening line.

When I was a teenager, the legal drinking age in Hawaii was 18. People

who waited till they were 21 to drink legally sometimes thought of us as lucky. Robert Sullivan, known as “Sully” was still a teenager when he got his first bartending job at Garden Court in Liberty House. Fresh out of High School, he got a job as a busser at Garden Court. He had his eye on bartending even then and went to bartending school to improve his chances. He let them know that he completed the course, and they let him fill in at the bar here and there. “Soon after that, the main bartender was offered a job at Michel’s because they needed someone right away. However, he also had an offer to work at the airport bar, which was a high paying union job, so he took the airport job and sent me to Michel’s. It’s one of those situations where I was in the right place at the right time.” “Michel’s is a very high end, very proper kind of place. The clientele there was mainly older and wealthy, we had movie stars and Presidents. Younger people came in mostly for proms and birthdays. It was different in the other bars around town. In 1977, it was a kind of wild time, all the bars were busy in those days, especially in the summer. Drinking age in California was 21, so kids would come here for the summer and drink. There were a lot of places to

drink and dance at that time. There’s not many places like that now.” He still loves working at Michel’s. He says, “ I’ve been there 30 years and I still never get tired of looking out at the water. It’s like what you would think a restaurant in Hawaii would look like: open air, right on the beach, you can hear the waves roll up on the sand. You can see the ‘green flash’ on the horizon.” At that point, I had to interrupt him to ask for more details about how to see this mythic “green flash”. He said, “You have to time it because you can’t stare at the sun for a long period of time. It should be a really clear horizon without cloud formations, and just as it’s about to disappear, the top tip of the sun will change from yellowish to lime green. Sometimes it’s bigger, sometimes it’s smaller. It lasts for two or three seconds. When it’s a particularly good one, you can hear people along Waikiki clap because when the sun goes down, we all kind of stop to watch the sunset.” I asked him about the bar at Azure which he works at on the weekends. He says he feels very fortunate to be working at Azure in The Royal Hawaiian Hotel, one of the premier hotels in Waikiki. He was interested in a part-time job there and was spotted serendipitously by Joey Gottesman, the Royal Hawaiian Beverage Manager, in the lobby who put in a good word for him. He says,

at Azure, they do a lot of fresh fruit juices in the drinks. The drinks are all hand crafted. The bar has no blenders, and no soda guns. The cocktails all give you an idea of fresh muddled fruit. “People enjoy the freshness of the cocktails, the drinks are a lot smoother, not too tart and not too sweet.” Recently, I had a chance to sip on some of those fresh juice cocktails at the elegantly renovated Mai Tai bar and enjoyed their craftsmanship and balance immensely. There was a time when Sully almost bought a business servicing Aloha Airlines. Fortunately, just before any money was exchanged, he went on vacation to China with his fiancé Cynthia Fenner, the wine buyer of Nieman Marcus. When he returned, Aloha Airlines was no longer in business. If his vacation was any shorter, he might easily have suffered significant financial losses.Sometimes being lucky requires that you be in the right place at the right time. Sometimes being lucky requires that you NOT be in a certain place at a certain time. It seems Sully has both types of luck. They say that good things happen to good people, and in the case of Sully, it happens to be true.

EARLY TIMES MINT JULEP

NAMED “OFFICIAL DRINK OF THE

KENTUCKY DERBY” Popular Derby Cocktail continues tradition with release of commemorative bottle For the past 22 years, the Early Times Mint Julep has proudly served as the “Official Drink of the Kentucky Derby®.” In celebration of this, Early Times Kentucky Whisky continues its tradition with the release of the 2009 commemorative Kentucky Derby bottle.

In recognition of its “Official Drink of the Kentucky Derby” designation, Early Times commissioned renowned equine artist Celeste Susany to create an original oil painting of an actual scene at Churchill Downs® for its 2009 Derby bottle. 2009 marks Celeste’s 10th anniversary of painting the artwork for the Early Times Mint Julep commemorative bottle. Entitled “Dueling Towards Destiny”, this year’s painting depicts two powerhouse horses in stride racing towards the finish line with the Derby crowd and famed Twin Spires in the background. “Celeste’s work captures the true essence and emotion of Derby day,” said Joe Murray, Brand Manager for Early Times Kentucky Whisky. “The Early Times Mint Julep bottle has truly become a collectible among art, horse racing and whisky fans and is a must-have for Derby parties as the perfect way to serve a delicious mint julep in less than ten seconds.” During this year’s Derby week, more than 140,000 Early Times Mint Juleps are expected to be served at Churchill Downs. Over the past 22 years, more than 2.5 million Early Times Mint Juleps have been served between Kentucky Oaks® and Derby Days at Churchill Downs. This year’s Derby will take place May 2, 2009 in Louisville, Kentucky.

About the Artist:

Celeste Susany was born in eastern Ohio in

1952. She spent a large portion of her life

around horses in Santa Anita, Hollywood

Park, and Del Mar, California. She

received her degree from the Art Center

College of Design in Los Angeles.

Kentucky Derby.

Just Tacos in Millilani Town Center serves up more than just tacos. They serve a nice array of traditional Mexican cuisine, tequilas, margaritas, and exclusively

Mexican beers. The décor is hip and earthy. Owner Jesus Santoya describes the impression as, “Cantina style which is more of a feeling. It’s the sense of bringing the outdoors indoors. It’s a rustic earthy kind of style like the feeling you get from the earthy pueblos of Arizona. This is what we tried to capture.” In every aspect of the restaurant, he does everything possible to be as authentic as possible right down to their “south of the boarder” hospitality.

A weekly patron, Kevin Norris, sidled up to the bar and started talking about how much he loves the place. He said, “They treat you like family here. The service is great. No matter how busy they are. We came here one night when they were slammed. Service was kind of slow, so we sat outside. Then “Momma” (the owners mother) came outside with two tamales and said, ‘Here you go complements of the restaurant for being patient and waiting.’ We didn’t expect her to do that, but she did. That’s what draws us here: the authentic Mexican food, the service, and the hospitality. We try to bring them more customers all the time, and once they eat here, they’re hooked.”

Santoya comments, “We use only the freshest authentic ingredients imported from LA to create authentic Mexican flavors.” They even make their own tortillas daily. If you stop by during lunch time, you’ll be able to see their chef making fresh tortillas off to the side of the bar.

They do two styles of margarita: classic and traditional. The classic style is what most people expect a margarita to taste like; it’s sweeter than the traditional. The traditional style uses fresh juices all hand squeezed right in front of you if you’re sitting at the bar. Christopher Lennon, their General Manager, explains that they change their Tequila Well occasionally between Jose Quervo Gold and Cassadores Blanco to show people just how much changing the tequila in your drink can change the margarita. Customers can call tequilas in all

their margaritas. Though figuring out which tequila to order might be a little overwhelming since they shelve 327 different tequilas. Christopher says there is only one bar that has more tequilas, and it’s in Las Vegas.

They also offer tequila flights which start at $10. The concept according to Santoya is, “To take the intimidation factor out of it. It’s our way of saying you don’t have to spend much money, just try the tequila. Once you start getting into the finer tequilas, you can enjoy sipping them as much as you would a fine cognac.”

Christopher explained, “We also have a Tequila Club comprised of people who have done over 150 shots of tequila, over any length of time, keeping track of them on their shot cards. We have tequila dinners and special events for Tequila Club members. Those folks tend to enjoy the fresh lime margaritas the most: the Don Chui, Trust me, Summers Passion, Canton Ginger, and St Germains Elder Flower margarita. These higher end drinks made with fresh juice will “Wow” you and make think of the interesting possibilities with margaritas.”

Asked to recommend a dish, Christopher said, “My personal favorite is the Mocha Hete which is served in a large lava stone bowl and consists of melted queso fresco, lightly seasoned chicken, shrimp & steak toped with homemade pico de gallo and served with hot homemade corn tortillas-- absolutely delicious.”

Santoya would like to encourage people to come out to Mililani and try a “south of the boarder” experience. “If you are looking to escape the city scene and have a good margarita, then this is the place.” As additional incentive, Blue or Yellow Card holders will receive 20% off their tab.

The kitchen is open from 11-9:30, and the bar is open till the last customer leaves at around 11-12 on the weekdays and 2AM on the weekends. For information, call Just Tacos at 625-8025.

The Earth Friendly Distilling Company, makers of 360 Vodka,

have set an even higher standard for the spirits industry with their latest innovations that promote reusability and demonstrate their unsurpassed commitment to the environment. Beginning immediately, 12 bottles of 360 Vodka are now being shipped in reusable, blue recycle bin containers, similar to those used in curb side recycling programs. “Our new blue bin totes are the perfect shipping containers for 360 Vodka,” said Ed Pechar, Chairman of the Earth Friendly Distilling Company. “As the world’s only eco friendly luxury vodka, we are dedicated to sustainability and these containers not only provide our customers with reusable, recyclable solutions, but encourage others to make small changes that can have a big impact on the environment.” Designed to promote recycling at home and work, the blue recycling bins will also be a more sustainable and welcome addition to the stacks of boxes wholesalers currently provide to their customers for carrying home their purchased goods. In addition to the shipping containers, the Earth Friendly Distilling Company has designed a unique bottle handle for 1.75 liter sizes of 360 Vodka. The recycled metal handle aids in holding and pouring the product and is also reusable. The device fits snugly over the bottle and snaps into place to ensure ease of use and a more stabilized pour, while helping

prevent spills and breakage. Beginning March 1st, all 1.75 liter bottles will be shipped with the reusable handle. “This innovation is in direct response to feedback from mixologists, consumers and our accounts, especially those who specialize in bottle service,” said Pechar. “Knowing our valued customers like the larger size bottle and need the easiest pour possible, we are thrilled to provide them with a solution that is both recyclable and reusable.” These innovations advance 360 Vodka’s position as an environmental leader in the industry. Along with using biodiesel fuelled machinery, state of the art distillation equipment and recycled materials for their glass bottles and labels, 360 Vodka donates $1.00 for every swing top closure returned for recycling to environmental charities. About The Earth Friendly Distilling Company 360 Vodka is created by the Earth Friendly Distilling Company, a division of McCormick Distilling Company, located in historic Weston, Missouri. Founded in 1856, McCormick Distilling Co. is the oldest continuously operating distillery west of the Mississippi. The company’s first ever eco¬luxury brand, 360 Vodka, won the Beverage Tasting Institute’s 2007 Gold Medal award, and the 2008 Rising Star award given by the Beverage Information Group. Additional information on the privately held corporation may be found at www.mccormickdistilling.com and on 360 Vodka at www.vodka360.com.

May.09 Value wines_4pp.indd 1 4/8/09 3:43:57 PM

Coming off 15 (or is it 16? who’s counting?) years of dynamic growth, America’s wine culture has been blooming. Now this. Pundits don’t have a name for it yet, but with the economy seeming to stagger more dramatically each week, no industry is untouched. How will the deep and extended downturn impact wine?

It’s too soon for statistics to paint a broad and clear picture, but based on interviews with pros at every level of the trade, wine’s cur-rent experience appears to be more of a clash than a crash.

In essence, the free-market system is grinding up against the three-tier system as never before in history. Wine’s almost inconceivable number of SKUs—at price points that range from stupid-cheap to stupid-expensive—coupled with a national thirst that seems far from slaked, has generated an incredible downward pressure on prices. The pie, growing so deliciously for so many years, may not be shrinking at all, but it is suddenly—and rapidly—reassembling itself. And players in every nook of the business are scrambling to keep their sliver.

It all starts, of course, with how consumers are shifting their dol-lars. Trading down was in full force over the holidays, according to Katherine Moore, manager of Union Square Wines & Spirits in NYC, with Cava and Prosecco cannibalizing Champagne like never before. And it hasn’t abated in the first quarter of 2009; conspicuous con-sumption is history and sticker-shopping is now the norm. She adds,

however, “People who like wine still have a passion for it. They are spending less per bottle, but they aren’t opposed to treating them-selves to a mixed case.”

It is hard to say yet if consumption will keep rising in the new, definitely-not-improved economy, but people are clearly becoming more conscious of what they spend at retail. As Christy Frank, pro-prietor of Frankly Wines in NYC, puts it: “I think consumers have always wanted wines that overdeliver for the price. These days, they just feel a little more justified in asking for it.”

Will the Real ‘Values’ Please Stand Up?In hard times, the notion of value takes on fresh importance. Not just price, but value. Value is not a commodity, it is a concept. Definitions differ greatly, of course, as one drinker’s idea of a great value is a $18.99 box of Merlot, another’s may be a $6 anything-but-Merlot by the glass, while yet another person’s definition may be a $25 Pomerol.

tive spread of what value means is bound to stay expansive, yet the appeal of what consumers consider “value” is likely to intensify.

How can you apply the concept of value to your business to satisfy the consumers who are demanding it? Specifics will vary based on your wine niche, but it may be helpful to approach the concept of value as an evolving target. On one hand, there are “Classic Values”—driven by logical strategies wine drinkers have long applied to get more “bang for the buck” [see sidebar]. On the other hand, there seems to be a bunch of brand new value opportunities, borne directly from the sense of urgency that is infusing the industry from producers right through drinkers. Here is a closer look at where the “New Values” are.

Deals, deals, deals.If you haven’t sensed the volatility in the wine pipeline since fall of 2008, you haven’t been working. “The slump is on everyone’s lips,” says Mike Duffy, a sales rep for the heavily Italian portfolio of Selected Estates of Europe. “What I see are shrinking inventories and ordering on-the-spot, with everyone looking for deals.” And the pressure is working its way back up the chain: knowing they need better pricing to get the orders from their increasingly demanding retail and restaurant accounts, distributors are squeezing producers to hold prices if not drop them further. The net result is situational bar-gains galore. The trick, of course, for wholesale buyers is to jump on the deals that fit their particular clientele. In short, nobody is rush-ing to bring anything in the door that they

don’t think they can move out quickly. A great deal on four cases of a wine is worthless if it’s going to sit stacked. With so much wine in warehouses and wineries needing to work its way through the pipeline, the deals are likely to continue to pop up—especially at higher price points.

Big is beautiful.Consumers can do the Quality-Price Ratio math. They do it all the time when they buy jugs of Tide, cases of Pepsi and five-gallon containers of water. The current crisis has opened the door for them to re-think buying wine in bulk. Frankly Wines’ Frank says, “Our customers are increas-ingly accepting of wines in new packaging formats—Yellow + Blue 1L Tetra Pak, Roger Perrin 3L boxes, 1L jugs of Austrian Grüner and Zweigelt sealed under crown cap. It takes a little reassurance, but once they understand that these formats can deliver good wine and great value, they usually come back for more.” As long as the economy is weak, large formats are bound to stay strong.

Brands are back. There’s an old saying in the wine industry: the wine doesn’t know what bottle it’s in. But con-sumers certainly do. Kevin Connor, director of marketing for Robert Mondavi’s Woodbridge, Private Selection and Solaire wines, points out that after a decade of the wine industry’s top 10 brands representing an increasingly smaller share of the overall market, the slide did an about-face in 2008: the top 10 gained ground relative to their peers. Connor attributes the turnaround to consumers’ attitudes. “When times were good, wine drinkers were more ad-venturous in terms of trying new labels,” he ex-plains. “Now, with their budgets tight, they are looking to play it safe and returning to brands they trust.” Call it the comfort factor: for day-to-day drinking, there is real value in buying wine that won’t disappoint.

New ‘power reds.’ For lovers of red wine, seeking more bang for the buck is not just about the buck, it’s also about the BANG. After a long spell of promoting the sheer power of 90-point reds,

customers are increasingly

accepting of wines in new

packaging formats

Australia: their glut, your gain. Australia is one big magnum of irony winewise; amid years of serious drought, there is nonetheless more Oz wine in our pipeline than ever. Some say the glut is over, but there should be plenty of excellent Shiraz-based wines (e.g., Marquis Philips, Red Dust and Penfolds’ Koonunga Hill) still reaching our shelves at prices in the low teens.

New “sweet spot” on wine lists. Fine dining has been hit harder and faster than wine retail since the economy turned sour. Responding to slower traffi c and trading down, restaurateurs are targeting wines that can resell in the $30-$39 per bottle range. And more are coming up with special promotions to spur wine sales, such as half-price nights

Green is beautiful. Consumers’ willingness to go green when given the opportunity seems to be holding up in recent months. For many, there is real value implicit in wines made from organically grown grapes and sustainable practices.

The $10 bottle. On the national chain front, Ruby Tuesday, which includes 800 restaurants across the country, recently launched a value promotion: a bottle of Coastal Vines Chardonnay for just $10 off the wine list.

now it is up to the industry to show them they can still get impact wines for less coin. The current crisis is the perfect opportunity to turn customers onto wines that deliver the style they want and save them money. From Spain, Jumilla and Toro say kaboom; ditto Aglianicos from southern Italy. In California, one classic example of trading down by style is suggesting full-bodied Zin to high-end Cabernet drinkers. But don’t stop there: Petite Sirah is poised for a star turn. Bogle has long been considered a staple by penny-pinching red enthusiasts, and Ravenswood and Red Truck have recently added excellent bottlings to their lineups, priced to sell for under $12. The most fertile new power red of all may be Malbec priced in the high teens. Clos de la Siete, Aman-caya, Achaval Ferrer and Ernesto Catena’s “Tahuan” are blockbusters in style but easy on the wallet. Think of

the Napa Cab drinker: wouldn’t he be thrilled to get a six-pack of killer Mal-becs for less than the price of a bottle of Dominus? I see these reds winning over lovers not only of big Cabs but also heady Aussie Shirazes.

Perhaps the real key to navigating the coming months will be for wine sellers to confront the crisis head on. Everyone knows times are tough, but in terms of wine, everyone knows there is a lot of good juice out there. Be proactive. Make sure you have wines in diverse categories and distinct price points that you know are good buys. And then, make sure your customers know it. Flag them with shelf talkers.

Australia: their glut, your gain. Australia is one big magnum of irony winewise; amid years of serious drought, there is nonetheless more Oz wine in our pipeline than ever. Some say the glut is over, but there should be plenty of excellent Shiraz-based wines (e.g., Marquis Philips, Red Dust and Penfolds’ Koonunga Hill) still reaching our shelves at prices in the low teens.

New “sweet spot” on wine lists. Fine dining has been hit harder and faster than wine retail since the economy turned sour. Responding to slower traffi c and trading down, restaurateurs are targeting wines that can resell in the $30-$39 per bottle range. And more are coming up with special promotions to spur wine sales, such as half-price nights

Green is beautiful. Consumers’ willingness to go green when given the opportunity seems to be holding up in recent months. For many, there is real value implicit in wines made from organically grown grapes and sustainable practices.

The $10 bottle. On the national chain front, Ruby Tuesday, which includes 800 restaurants across the country, recently launched a value promotion: a bottle of Coastal Vines Chardonnay for just $10 off the wine list.

now it is up to the industry to show them they can still get impact wines for less coin. The current crisis is the perfect opportunity to turn customers onto wines that deliver the style they want and save them money. From Spain, Jumilla and Toro say kaboom; ditto Aglianicos from southern Italy. In California, one classic example of trading down by style is suggesting full-bodied Zin to high-end Cabernet drinkers. But don’t stop there: Petite Sirah is poised for a star turn. Bogle has long been considered a staple by penny-pinching red enthusiasts, and Ravenswood and Red Truck have recently added excellent bottlings to their lineups, priced to sell for under $12. The most fertile new power red of all may be Malbec priced in the high teens. Clos de la Siete, Aman-caya, Achaval Ferrer and Ernesto Catena’s “Tahuan” are blockbusters in style but easy on the wallet. Think of

the Napa Cab drinker: wouldn’t he be thrilled to get a six-pack of killer Mal-becs for less than the price of a bottle of Dominus? I see these reds winning over lovers not only of big Cabs but also heady Aussie Shirazes.

Perhaps the real key to navigating the coming months will be for wine sellers to confront the crisis head on. Everyone knows times are tough, but in terms of wine, everyone knows there is a lot of good juice out there. Be proactive. Make sure you have wines in diverse categories and distinct price points that you know are good buys. And then, make sure your customers know it. Flag them with shelf talkers. Set up a special section on the fl oor or your wine list. Shout it. This is no time to be whisper-ing. By addressing the economy directly, your clientele will realize that A) you’re not being passive, and B) you’re on their side when it comes to value. They’ll drink to that. ■

According to the Distilled Spirits Council of the United States (DIS-CUS), the total gin category has been fairly stagnant since 2003. Last year, gin was the 6th largest spirits category at 11.1 million cases compared to 11.0 million cases in 2003. The winner within the category, however, has been the super-premium segment, which in that same time period, has grown from 49,000 cases to 73,000 cases, almost a 50% increase. In terms of rev-enue, suppliers sold over $900 million in gin in 2008 versus $852 million in 2003. Gin, of course, is still far outpaced by vodka, the #1 spirits category, which accounted for 53.3 million cases last year.

Gin has two unique advantages that help push the category along: the influence of its history and a two-part demographic of drinkers.

Spirits of new York. “one, you have the segment of consumers in the 60+ age group, and those people certainly grew up with an understanding of gin, even if the quality of the cocktails during those years was probably question-able. Secondly, you have a renewed in-terest in classic cocktails from the youth movement of bartenders—many of whom are under 30—stimulating interest in con-temporary gins.”

reTAIL vS. BACKBAroff-premise sales are still heartiest in terms of mature brands such as Beefeater, Tan-queray, Bombay and Plymouth, with the on-premise remaining the playground of the botanical-forward, artisan brands like Avia-tion, G’vine, Hendrick’s, Martin Miller’s and Bulldog.

Plymouth is Pernod ricard’s fastest growing gin brand, but Matthew rodwick, Pernod ricard’s off-premise district manager for metro new York, says Beefeater traded down in off-premise sales in 2008.

“We actually had a healthy performance from Seagram’s, which is our more value brand,” he explains. “It’s a good, solid base in our more urban markets.

The more upscale Beefeater 24 is a launch Pernod ricard is quite excited about, though. “We wanted to make some-thing that’s a traditional London dry gin,” explains brand ambassador Dan Warner. “We wanted to make something great tast-ing without moving away from what makes

gin, gin.” Inspired from an origi-nal recipe from the group’s founder,

Beefeater 24 uses a blend of Chinese green and rare Japanese Senchas teas as its main botanical. Since education is key to push-ing the gin category, Beefeater 24 has joined forces with a few other gin producers to cre-ate an informative symposium on the spirit that will take place this summer in new York and San Francisco.

As the on-premise education for con-sumers continues, the effects trickle down to increase off-premise sales of the contem-porary brands, too. “If you walk into a re-tail store now versus three years ago, there are more brands available,” says Charlotte voisey. As brand ambassador for Hendrick’s gin, voisey attributes the success of Hen-drick’s to quality, followed by approachabil-ity and the aesthetic appeal of the packag-ing. Much like tequila, the newer gins profit from unique packaging – whether it’s being solicited from a backbar or perused on a store shelf. on almost every brand’s bottles, con-sumers are finding educational information on the back label, but the bottles themselves have evolved to help symbolize the quality of what’s inside.

Hendrick’s dark bottle and “antique” label are a colorful nod to the category’s roots in apothecaries; Magellan, the origi-nal blue gin known for its exotic botanicals, like iris, beckons in its bottle, emblazoned with an illustration of the famed explorer’s ship; and G’vine’s bottle is bright green to represent the trademark essence of Cognac

vine flowers.

THe GreAT JUnIPer DeBATeryan Magarian helped co-found Aviation Gin, launched in 2006,

and he says part of his decision to produce a new boutique gin was because of the suc-cessful future he foresees for the category. With more drinkers enjoying an arsenal of classic cocktails featuring gin, there is definitely room for the spirit to run.

“every spirit has its own equity drink,” Magarian explains. “Tequila has the mar-garita. Cachaça has the Caipirinha. I looked at gin and realized that it has so many equity cocktails – the negroni, the Southside, the Aviation, the Martini – and in the next five to 10 years it would be a major, major player.” What Magar-ian also predicted and anticipated with the launch of his own brand and other new gins was the inevi-table controversy surrounding the experimentation of new botanicals, not just juniper.

“It’s mind boggling to me that people haven’t done this before now,” Magarian says. “Genever was never that focused on juniper. once continuous distillation was developed, the juniper came to the forefront. I don’t see why now there should not be another evo-lution. I think gin will always be defined by juniper’s characteristics, but that’s why I coined the term ‘new Western Gin.’ I would like to see a more clear definition of ‘London Dry,’ in order to keep that cat-egory from being diluted. We pushed some buttons with Aviation, and it got people thinking. I think it’s really cool there has been such an interest.”

It’s not surprising there is an interest giv-en how dynamic the category has become, whether it’s the refined new Amsterdam Gin, a nod to new York’s old-world history with subtle citrus flavors; Whitley neill, the London Dry Gin inspired by Africa, featur-ing the iconic baobab fruit; or White rock Distilleries’ Pinnacle Gin, awarded “rising Star” Growth Brand status by the Adams Beverage Group. It has the advantage of being the sibling to Pinnacle vodka and with 18,000 cases sold last year, the brand is clearly picking up momentum.

Bulldog launched in 2007, and in 2008, case volume was 50% more than the first year. “Mixologists are an integral part of what we do,” notes Bulldog Gin’s founder and Ceo, Anshuman vohra. “We consider ourselves to be the first sipping gin, and as such, we have a very delicately balanced, crisp fin-ish. Mixologists love our exotic mélange of

botanicals as it unleashes their imagination. education of the trade is a continuous pro-cess and something we invest heavily in.” This summer, look for Bulldog to unveil its “Summer of Love” campaign in new York, with a host of specialty cocktails celebrat-ing Bulldog’s “aphrodisiac” botanicals.

one U.S.-made artisanal gin that’s making waves is Bluecoat, produced by Philadelphia Distilling and packaged in a striking blue glass bottle. Andrew Auwerda, president of the company, says the brand is about spirit and rebelliousness, “people will-ing to put themselves on the line,” as he sees it. The premium product, now avail-able in 19 different states, is making quite an impact so far. “The on-premise is really important. The mixology trend dovetails

well with craft distilling; bartenders are the gatekeepers of spirits,” says Auwerda. robert Cassell, Bluecoat’s master distiller, also agrees the gin’s flavor profile pleas-antly surprises. “There is a wide array of flavor complexes that work off each other. So many people anticipate just the flavor of

pine, but you don’t have to have that,” he points out.

TIMeS To CoMeFrom cardamom and coriander to cinnamon and ginger, the com-plexity of flavors is astounding, and it’s shaping cocktails on-

premise. But several companies are addressing both the mature audience and the younger drinkers by launching a more contemporary style alongside a tradi-tional one. G’vine is producing their grape and ginger-influenced Floraison gin, but has also been offering their [nouaison] since May 2008, which is stronger, spicier and has more appeal to traditional connoisseurs. Martin Miller’s offers consumers an addi-tional 90-proof Westbourne strength, and Beefeater 24 will undoubtedly spark some conversation as this mature brand takes a stab at the young mixologist’s market.

What is unclear is how the economy will affect gin. new York’s Prohibition Distillery president, John Walsh, has plans to launch a new gin in the near future. Besides keeping in line with Prohibition Distillery’s speakeasy theme, he feels his gin still has terrific sales potential for this troubled economy. His mar-keting will hearken to hard times overcome in the 1930s, and his product will be pro-duced at small, independent, already-existing farm distilleries around the country.

“The majority of the products we want to rub elbows with are in the $35 range, but we will set the price significantly lower to attract a client who wants quality for less cost,” Walsh says. “As we all know, alcohol is a product that is somewhat recession proof. People drink when they are happy and when they are sad, and I haven’t had one person express the slightest discomfort that we are launching in this climate.” n

On the industry

WILLIAM SLONE: DISCUS estimates that on-premise business was down about 5.5% last year. How has that effected Patrón, which is such a strong on-premise brand?

JOHN McDONNELL: There is defi nitely a shift into the off-premise, which grew about 3% last year. But overall Patrón grew 23% last year, when the tequila category grew only 4%. The super-premium category grew by 10.6 %, and we accounted for the majority of that growth.

I do think the on-premise consumer is still dining out, just less frequently.

WS: How is it that Patrón has managed to stay strong while so many other brands are reporting slower sales?

JM: Our advertising and brand message is consistent, which is very important when you’re building a brand. And above all, we have a very high-quality product, produced from the best agave, and each batch is

created with the care and attention that can only be accomplished by hand. People recognize Patrón as a high-quality spirit.

WS: How will you approach your marketing and advertising efforts this year?

JM: Unlike many other suppliers, we’re not backing off our marketing plans. The Unilevers and Pepsis of the world have proved that when you continue to market your brands during downturns, you are well-positioned and strong when the market turns around.

John McDonnellChief Operating Offi cer,

Patrón Spirits International A.G.

{

John McDonnell, COO, Patrón Spirits International A.G., sat down with The Beverage Network’s William Slone to talk about the ultra-premium white spirits consumer, why luxury brands are a crucial component to keeping your business healthy and why hospitality has never been more important.

On Luxury Brands

WS: You believe retailers should continue to emphasize luxury products even during a soft economy. Why is this?

JM: It takes three or four bottles of standard tequila to equal the profit of one bottle of Patrón. I always encourage retailers to expand their shelf presence of luxury goods—more floor displays and more facings up front. The same is true for the on-premise. There was a recent study which showed that the number of restaurant consumers who make their drink decisions based on what is on the menu is extremely high. These are things that do not cost any money, and will enhance margins.

WS: Why do you discourage retailers from discounting?

JM: Certain categories are loss leaders, to get people in the door, but this should not be the case with luxury brands with high margins. Are people going to buy a $45 bottle of Patrón because it is $2 off? Retailers are just sacrificing their margins when they do this.

On New Products

WS: Last year, the Patrón Spirits Company got into the vodka business with Ultimat Vodka. How is that brand doing?

JM: People tell me that we picked an interesting time to launch an ultra-

premium vodka. I do believe it will take a bit longer to build this brand in this economy. But we are doing the same things we did with Patrón, and we firmly believe it is all about a quality product and quality distribution. You won’t hear us ask any of our wholesalers “How many cases of Ultimat did you sell today?” For us, the focus isn’t on volume but on menu placements, samplings and exposure. Ultimat was served at the Oscars this year, and we have a global ad campaign that we are adapting locally.

We are also well-positioned at $40, which is a nice middle ground between the many vodkas around $30 and those priced at $60 or above. We have a 30% reorder in every market we are in, but I suppose the most important thing here, is that we are prepared for a slow, successful bid.

WS: How about the many other new brands we’ve seen launched in the last year? Do you think they will have a hard time succeeding?

JM: As a result of both the economy as well as all the consolidation in our industry, I think the odds are very much against most new products succeeding today. You have to have a unique selling proposition, which we do. Brands that aren’t supported with packaging and advertising will fail. Retailers don’t want to tie their money up in dead inventory.

WS: What are some other exciting brands in your portfolio?

JM: The hottest product in our portfolio is Patrón XO Café Coffee Liqueur. The staffs in restaurants and bars have adopted it as their brand. We were up 80% last year and we’re up 47% through February this year.

WS: As an industry veteran, what is the most important thing retailers can do to protect and build their businesses in this challenging time?

JM: We are in the hospitality business, and we can’t forget that. This is a people business and personality and service really matters. I lived in NYC in the early 1980s, and in those days when you bought a few drinks, the bartender bought you one back. That doesn’t happen anymore but it should. Building relationships in this difficult economy really helps. Our products are about relaxation and fun, and we are lucky that nothing can replace them. The beverage alcohol business will be here forever.

Over the last few years, many of the country’s best bartenders have been feverishly creating cocktails. But these tasty drinks aren’t

just for bar menus — they’re for cocktail competitions sponsored by spirits companies. In an attempt to win over both mixologists and the public, many of the biggest brands, including Absolut Vodka, Domaine de Canton and Drambuie, have all recently sponsored shake-offs.

For years there may have been flair bartending competitions (think Tom Cruise in the movie Cocktail) but up until recently there were just a few cocktail contests in America. This recent trend is indicative of just how much spirit companies now rely upon bartenders for creat-ing new drinks and for driving drink trends. It also helps that these events almost guarantee media attention for the brands.

Cocktails and LimericksThese competitions, of course, revolve around bartenders who mix up drinks featuring the sponsor’s brand. But some spirit companies add a twist. The annual International Finlandia Vodka Cup has an Iron Chef-like round where bartenders are given a mystery basket filled with 10 items (of which they can only use four) and have just 15 minutes to come up with and prepare an original drink. Hendrick’s Gin, which is known for its creative promotions and unusual botan-icals, held a competition this winter where bartenders from across the country not only had to create a cocktail but also perform a limerick. “I wanted to put the emphasis on the personality of the bar-tender just as much as the taste of the cocktail – rewarding show-manship and entertainment,” says Charlotte Voisey, Hendrick’s Gin brand champion. “The competition was designed to further the spe-

The World’s Finest VodkaTM Nature’s Freshest Flavors

Finlandia Vodka has established the global standard in the flavored vodka segment by outpacing the competition 3-to-1 in sales growth over the past five years.

Recently, Finlandia Vodka was recognized as the fastest-growing global spirit brand exceeding the three million annual case sales mark to become the 5th most powerful** premium vodka brand globally.

cial relationship that Hendrick’s enjoys with bartenders all over the USA.” To build na-tionwide buzz, the Scottish spirit held pre-liminary contests in eight cities, including New York, Boston, Miami and Las Vegas, with the finals held in Los Angeles.

Judging the JudgesThese contests not only draw talented bar-tenders from top bars but also impressive judges. Last spring, Rhum Clément’s annual New York Cocktail Challenge was judged by an all-star bench, including Tony Abou-Ganim, who created the cocktail program at the Bellagio Resort; Julie Reiner, who co-owns New York hotspots the Flatiron Lounge and the Clover Club; Jim Meehan, co-editor of the cocktail book Mr. Boston and general manager of New York’s PDT; and Toby Cecchini, author of cocktail mem-oir Cosmopolitan: A Bartender’s Life.

Serious TipsOne reason these competitions have become popular is that they offer bartenders a way to meet their colleagues from around the country or around the world. “We give the bartenders a forum,” says Markku Raittinen, Finlandia Vodka’s global brand ambassador. These competitions also offer contestants something else more tangible: travel and prizes. For one thing, the finals of many of these contests take place in exotic locations. Marie Brizard brought 36 finalists from 30 countries to Bordeaux for its International Bartender Seminar and Cocktail Competi-tion. (The East Coast preliminary round

was held in New York’s Madison Square Garden.) And the finals of the mid-winter International Finlandia Vodka Cup are held in a giant snow dome up in the Arctic Cir-cle. Unfortunately, the site’s low tempera-tures can wreak havoc with certain ingredi-ents, like honey which hardens in the cold. Still, there is at least one advantage of the weather: “The best part is that you don’t need to cool down your glassware,” says Fin-landia’s Raittinen.

Slightly warmer, the final mix-off for the contest sponsored by the bittersweet Italian liqueur, Averna, took place on a terrace overlooking the Sicilian Ionian Sea in Italy. “Going to the finals is the prize,” says Don Lee, a New York City-based bartender who won the Averna contest with his inventive take on a rum and Coke, which doesn’t ac-

tually call for soda. (The aptly named “La Cola Nostra” is made with Averna, Zacapa rum, lime juice, simple syrup, pimento dram and Champagne.) In addition to the trip, Lee was also awarded a $1,500 American Express gift card for his winning creation.

New Competitions

Follow the TrendWhile Finlandia has been holding a cock-tail competition for over 10 years, many other brands have only recently started of-fering contests. The sweet Scottish liqueur Drambuie, which is made according to a recipe created over 260 years ago, began holding cocktail contests around the coun-try for the first time last August. The brand held contests in seven cities, including New York, Portland, Denver and Austin and in each town, 10 local bartenders battled it out. Some of the winning recipes were very simple, like the “Ginger Dram” created by Mindy Kucan from the Hilton Hotel in Austin, which calls for just Drambuie, Grey Goose and orange blossom water. Oth-ers were much more complicated like the “Drambuie High Plains Drifter” a creation from David Shenaut of the Teardrop Lounge in Portland, which featured five ingredients including gin, rosebud-infused honey syrup and lemon juice. Drambuie is planning on holding another series of competitions this year and a national contest in 2010.

The ginger-based liqueur Domaine de Canton also held its Bartender of the Year Competition for the first time this past March. The finals of the contest took place

John Lermayer of the Florida Room at the Delano Hotel in Miami came out on top. His winning cocktail was called “Earth, Wind and Ginger”, which called for Canton, fresh muddled pineapple, fresh muddled sage, passion fruit nectar and Angostura bitters. The event was such a success, Canton is already planning next year’s competition. And beginning this June the brand is also going to start holding a Bartender of the Month Competition online. Mixologists will be able to sub-mit recipes on the Canton website and each month’s winner will get a $500 prize and their recipe gets posted online for the whole month.

But some of these competitions offer even heftier prizes. This past winter Absolut and LXTV.com set out on a mission to “Search for America’s Top Bartender.” The 10 finalists from across the country competed in Las Vegas for one of the larg-est purses ever to be offered by a cocktail contest. The compe-tition was filmed and serialized like a reality television show. The drama-filled episodes were shown on LXTV.com. The win-ner was Las Vegas bartender Amanda Gager who was awarded an oversized check for $100,000 and also made an appear-ance on NBC’s Today Show. Not a bad tip for a few rounds of tasty cocktails. n

“We’ve taken a look at the brand and discovered that we’re attracting more women than men,” says senior brand manager, Justin Ames. “We’re targeting Hpnotiq to women in the 21-40 age range which encompasses many different life stages. There is one thing that’s important to all of them, though, and that is the idea of a “Girls Night Out.” When these ladies get together they like to have something that makes their night a little more fun and Hpnotiq fits right in.”

Attracting the DemographicFor those women who are 21-25, the ones most likely to go out on a frequent basis, but perhaps not familiar with Hpnotiq, Heaven Hill is focusing on the on-premise. For the older end of the demographic, the emphasis is on national chains and an off-premise push with home entertaining at its core.

“When you’ve got a product like Hpnotiq that stands out because of its bottle, color and the eye-catching drinks made with it, that starts conversation among friends,” notes Ames.

On the younger end of the spectrum, Hpnotiq has created its relevant Night School for Girls promotion, a series of na-

tional nightclub events where ladies out on the town learn the skills of a professional DJ while drinking the likes of “Roq Candy” cocktails. Hpnotiq’s partnership with DJ Scratch Academy and appearances from ce-lebrity DJs and personalities helps feed the energy of the brand.

“The industry has become more like clas-sical brand packaging; you have to provide an occasion for when to use Hpnotiq. “Girls Night Out” does just that,” adds Ames.

Capitalizing upon the growth of online social media, Hpnotiq has promoted “Girls Night Out” by sending invitations via Face-book and allowing the ladies to share memo-ries of their celebratory nights via photos and personalized animated videos.

Naturally, the female bonding theme extends to bachelorette parties and wed-

dings, where Hpnotiq has devoted a sig-nificant digital spend to support the “Girls Night Out” platform.

New LookAlong with the new marketing platform, Hp-notiq has also introduced a slightly tweaked bottle which rolled out April 1st and will continue to hit key distributor markets this month. The same bottle shape and signature color are still visible, important equity for the brand, but now the design has been simpli-fied in an effort to be more user-friendly and relevant. On the front, the natural, exotic fruit juices in the recipe are played up; the back explains how to best use the liqueur. “A lot of people look at the Hpnotiq bottle and they’re not sure how and when to use it. We now provide that information and what it de-livers,” Ames points out. Their new creative look matches, featuring clever copy like the tag line for their trade ad: “Blue La La. The girls are out tonight.” and “We’re not ashamed to admit it. We’ve had a little work done.”

With a focus on close consumption, Hpnotiq is also reaching out to bartenders, organizing industry nights where they can

communicate the importance of their new female target.

“In the past, Hpnotiq was very influenc-er-focused and now we’re taking it more mass market,” explains Ames. “We’re not turning the lights off on what we have accomplished in the past, we’re leveraging where we’re go-ing in the future.” n

i t wasn’t that long ago bartenders were introducing a new Latin cocktail to their curious customers called the “Mojito.”

The Cuban-inspired drink, made with rum and fresh muddled mint, combined just the right elements: it was refreshing, had exotic allure and was quite easy to whip up. While Mojitos are now favorites at the bar and to make at home, there is another international drink poised for making its way into the canon of American cocktail culture just as successfully: the Pisco Sour.

The national liquor of both Peru and Chile, Pisco is a colorless spirit distilled from grape must, tracing its roots to the 16th century, when Spanish settlers made their way to South America. Originally produced in Peru, today there is quite

a debate as to the merits of Chilean Pisco, with Pisco developed in Peru generally deemed a more authentic, superior product. Approximately 25,000 cases of Pisco are imported into the U.S. today. Undoubtedly, Pisco has a long way to climb. The Pisco Sour, the most iconic of cock-tails made with the spirit, featuring egg white and bitters, will continue

“I wanted to share a little bit of my Peruvian culture through Pisco cocktails,” explains Loret de Mola. “I was really convinced there was a great opportunity for the Pisco Sour and the Pisco Punch here; America is in love with all things Latin. More bars are opening their selections and including Pisco as part of their menu. And bartenders are really letting their imagina-tion fly with it.”

Available in 44 markets, BarSol’s national distribution is quite extensive. They have been lucky enough to partner with national chain The Cheesecake Fac-tory, which pairs its food with novelty cocktails made with BarSol, extending the brand’s visibility.

“It’s a small brand and it’s still a small category,” says Loret de Mola. “As more brands come together, providing awareness and education of Pisco is the way for the spirit to grow.”

Last year, Melanie Asher, a Harvard business school alum originally from Peru, brought her Macchu Pisco, which first launched five years ago in London, to NYC. “It was very difficult gaining traction here,” recalls Lizzie Asher, Melanie’s sister who also serves as the company’s president and brand ambassador. “In London there was more of a fascination for the esoteric and they were more experimental.” Some may have thought Melanie was crazy to start a brand from the ground up when she could have stuck with her banking career, but she really wanted to start a business, one that would celebrate her Peruvian heritage though much-loved Pisco. The portfolio now features the signature Macchu Pisco, made with the Quebranta grape, and the premium La Diablada, made with Que-branta, Moscatel and Italia grapes that are presed by foot. “Technically a white spirit, Pisco is similar to vodka,” Lizzie points out, ”but Pisco has tremendous versatility with an underlying signature; when you open a bottle of our Pisco, you can tell what those grapes are.”

Recently, Lizzie found herself at the Bubble Lounge in NYC walking the owner through a Pisco tasting, where she made a Pisco Punch topped with Champagne. “If we narrowly stay focused on just the Pisco Sour,

then bartenders won’t think about the potential of Pisco,” Lizzie says.

Herbie Loebl’s family has been in the Pisco business for quite some time now, working in the U.S. and abroad on generating buzz for the spirit since 2004. For the last two years, he and his father have been focusing their efforts on their own brand, Gran Si-erpe, a Peru-made Pisco with an eye-catching package design. Currently, Gran Sierpe is available in the South

Florida market, with plans for the North-east and California. Loebl believes that this Pisco has the potential to successfully cross over all the segments of the trade and the consumer. “This business has come about after careful consideration of quality, nec-essary marketing efforts and a huge learn-ing curve that we have experienced after selling Pisco for five years in the U.S. I feel very strongly that Pisco is the next big white spirits category to be explored by the U.S. consumer,” Loebl explains.

So far, the progress is siginificant. At Beekman Liquors in NYC, they can barely keep their bottles of Pisco on the shelf. Owner David Frieser says they’ve been car-rying Pisco for many years at the store, but now customers are more excited by it as they look for new cocktails. “People are experi-menting; they’ve tried the Mojito, they’ve tried the Caipirinha, and now they want to try the Pisco Sour.

DISCOVERING PISCOAt Yerba Buena in New York City’s East Vil-lage, Artemio Vasquez is at the helm of the bar. An alum of such lauded institutions as PDT and Pegu Club, Vasquez clearly knows how to make an inventive cocktail. Com-plementing a Latin-inspired menu of dishes like short rip arepas and chipotle guacamole, Vasquez makes a number of cocktails with Pisco. A fan of Macchu Pisco, he makes classics like Pisco Sours but also pushes Pis-co to more creative limits with his “Boludo ‘Yerba Mate’,” yerba mate-infused Pisco with grapefruit and lime cordials and fresh lemon juice; Audrey Saunders’ classic pineapple-infused Pisco Punch; and a distinctive Pisco Sour with purple corn. When Yerba Buena opens its downstairs Pisco bar and its sec-

“as more brands come together, providing

awareness and education of pisco is

the way for the category to grow.”

Artemio Vasquez’s cocktails at Yerba Buena

ond location in the West Village soon, Vasquez will have even more opportunities to champion his love for Pisco.

Nearby at Louis 649, owner Zachary Sharaga also likes us-ing Pisco. “When we put one out, soon we’re putting a whole handful out,” Sharaga says of the Pisco Sour. “We’ll take the bit-ters and maybe make a swirl to make it visually appealing and create interest.” Sharaga says there is still a need to educate his guests about Pisco, though. “People aren’t even familiar with it and confuse it with brandy, but there’s a huge interest in it. We’ve been experimenting and trying to mix it with other spirits like apple brandy.”

Downtown, in the South Street Sea-port area, guests who come to new Latin American restaurant Onda on a Thursday evening are treated to half-price Pisco Sours made with BarSol, a touch of nut-meg and a few drops of Angostura bitters all evening. “People are surprised,” says barman Cyril Ntukogu. “Peruvians will come into the bar and say ‘you’re making a Pisco Sour?’ It’s an old classic that is being reinvented and being introduced to many new people.”

PISCO POWER The Pisco craze is catching on not only in NYC. Like Yerba Buena’s Vasquez, bar guru Adam Seger at Nacional 27 in Chi-cago makes a “Chicha Sour” with organic purple corn, egg whites, lime and bitters, off the South American Classics section of his cocktail menu.

San Francisco has a particular af-finity for Pisco. It was a favorite among gold seekers during the big 19th century rush and in 1919, the last “authentic” Pisco Punch was served when Prohibi-tion closed down the Bank Exchange & Billiard Saloon where it was the signature drink. Today, Pisco Latin Lounge in the Hayes Valley draws guests to its long wal-nut bar for its Latin cocktails. In a nod to history, the “Original Recipe” Pisco Punch is the star drink, but Pisco is also

used in creations like a “Pisco Negroni” and a “Sideways Sour” with white grape juice and a Pinot Noir float.

Also in San Francisco, Cantina’s Dug-gan McDonnell was recently in Peru re-searching Pisco. “When we opened two years ago we had the largest selection of Pisco in the country,” he says. It’s still one of the city’s top destinations for Pisco cocktails like the “Blushing Lima” with orange Muscat and Cherry Heering.

In the Washington D.C. area, Todd Thrasher, one of the nation’s most promi-nent mixologists, loves making cocktails with Pisco at Restaurant Eve, the Majestic and his seductive speakeasy-style bar, PX, in Alexandria, VA. Before opening Res-taurant Eve, he worked at Café Atlantico, where his first cocktail list was built around Latin creations. “I had two Pisco cock-tails on the menu back in 1996,” Thrasher points out. “It’s been my favorite cock-tail for many years now.” Thrasher thinks Pisco goes really well in particular with savory ingredients, so you’ll find him mak-ing Pisco the base of celery root cocktails and spicy punches. “I kind of look at Pisco as more of a wine than a spirit because of its subtle nuances,” he says. At PX, the classic Pisco Sour is one of only a few clas-sic cocktails guests will find on the menu, and it has a loyal fan base. Thrasher says he goes through about six or seven bottles of Pisco a week. Does he think Pisco will be the next big cult spirit? “The problem is that some bartenders are so unfamiliar with Pisco,” he says. “It’s really a matter of playing with it.” ■

WheRe to leaRn moRe

F or most everyone spring is a time of celebration, and for high-school and college students the coming months are filled with a string of special occasions

including prom, spring break and graduation. In many cases these festivities are accompanied by underage drinking, often with fatal consequences.

In fact, more underage deaths occur during the months of April, May and June than in any other time of the year, according to The Century Council. During this high-risk season it is important for purveyors of beverage alcohol to be especially vigilant in their sales and service. There are several precautions you can take to protect your business and promote public awareness of underage drinking.

The most obvious preventative measure is to be attentive as to who you are selling and serving your products to. This means not only closely inspecting IDs, but also paying attention to those who are with your customers or who may be waiting outside.

In many cases minors receive their al-cohol from the people closest to them. According to one study conducted by The Century Council, 65% of underage drink-ers receive alcohol from family and friends. Although it may be difficult to know where your products will end up, you can still re-mind your customers that underage drinking is both dangerous and illegal through the use of POS materials and your own displays. Several sources for in-store displays include the Federal Trade Commission,

which has developed the “We Don’t Serve Teens” campaign, and The Century Coun-cil, which provides “Cops in Shops” materi-als for retailers.

Beyond educating yourself and your customers, your staff should also be aware of the dangers of selling to minors. Providing training for your entire staff is one of the best insurance policies you can own. This may mean simply speaking with your employees about preventive measures or also providing them with training programs.

One of the most popular and effective educational courses offered is TIPS (Train-ing for Intervention ProcedureS). TIPS certification classes teach everything from spotting fake IDs and learning behavioral cues to responding to intoxicated individu-als. The training also provides a thorough overview of the laws and regulations for your city and state.

Certification can prove to be beneficial for both the establishment and the em-ployee. “What participants walk away with is certification for the business showing that the owners made an effort to prevent any in-

cidents from happening, and it also pro-tects the individual as well,” explains Trevor Estelle, who works with Health

Communications Inc., the providers of TIPS education.

Estelle also points to the value of becoming involved in your community.

“Becoming a vocal advocate in your area not only communicates that you are a re-sponsible business in the community, it also reinforces the importance of responsible consumption and the dangers of underage drinking,” an important message to send any month of the year. n

KARMA CAlifoRniA BRut:• KARMA, the only single-serve

sparkling wine designed to be enjoyed directly from the glass bottle – no champagne flute or straw needed.

• Twist-off cap so you don’t have to struggle with a cork.

• Mix up bellinis right in the bottle – take a sip and then pour in orange juice, peach puree, even fresh raspberries.

• Founded by San Diego native, Patrick Wilson, who believes that everyday is a celebration and champagne isn’t just for special occasions.

• Taste: clean, crisp and moderately dry; with subtle hints of melon and pear

• Each bottle contains a glass and a half of sparkling wine with only 160 calories.

• KARMA is served on all Virgin America flights – toast in the sky!

• Price: $6.99 a bottle or $28 for a four-pack

• Available: www.karmabeverages.com

foundeR & Ceo of KARMA fine BeveRAgesPatrick Wilson

Patrick Wilson always relished a fine wine; more particularly an outstanding champagne or sparkling wine. It wasn’t until a few years ago, however, that he decided to manufacture his own delicious libation and embark on a new and exciting career. After 12 years in the sales and distribution industry, Patrick truly needed to make a change.

A Solana Beach, California native and now residing in the neighboring town of Cardiff-by-the-Sea, Patrick obtained a BA in Business from University of San Diego. Initially, Patrick’s intentions had him heading toward law school; instead he decided to take his chances at a sales position in the nutrition industry serving beverage, food and vitamin manufacturers.

In 2002, as Patrick attempted to relax on another long, business flight back home to San Diego, he requested a serving of champagne. After being served a flute of champagne, Patrick was struck with the idea to create a single serving glass design that would encourage others to drink champagne and sparkling wine casually like any other beer or cocktail.“ I wanted to enjoy my favorite beverage directly from the bottle – Why bother with the whole flute thing,” said Patrick.

After several years of research and development, Patrick left his sales job in 2007 and began producing KARMA – never loosing sight of his goal to

make KARMA the most desirable new

alcoholic beverage on the market.“ For me,

KARMA had to be stylish, sexy and have

a comfortable opening to drink from,” said

Patrick.

Patrick always preferred a glass of

champagne and wanted to show others

that a glass of bubbly can be enjoyed in any

situation, not only for special occasions.

Throughout the design phase of KARMA,

Patrick witnessed other sparkling wine

and champagne producers make attempts

at the same common vision. Although

he applauds their innovative attempts of

offering sparkling wine in a can, including

a straw with their 187ml or attaching a

funnel to the bottle closure, he feels they

never truly fulfilled the ready-to-drink

(RTD) concept. Therefore, Patrick put

his all into creating KARMA.

At 34, when he’s not busy pioneering

the luxury wine market or directing his

own real estate development company

Cardiff Estate Designs, Patrick can be

found playing golf, walking his dog Ruby,

trying new restaurants, and spending

time with his wife, Paige and their three

beautiful children.

KARMA Fine Beverages: Launched in September 2007, KARMA Fine Beverages produces KARMA California Brut, an innovative, ready-to-drink, 187 ml single serving of sparkling wine. The glass bottle, fashioned to resemble a champagne flute, with a wide screw-off cap, allows for convenient sips and a hip new way to drink casually, like any other beer or cocktail. Described as “clean, crisp and dry” -- the grapes of KARMA

are carefully selected from Central California vineyards and possess intense aromas with subtle hints of melon and pear. With exclusive distribution at only the trendiest nightclubs, hot spots and lounges, KARMA retails individually for $6.99 or in 4-packs, $27.96. For more information about KARMA, visit www.karmabeverages.com or call 877-KARMA-07.

WheRe to leaRn moRe

F or most everyone spring is a time of celebration, and for high-school and college students the coming months are filled with a string of special occasions

including prom, spring break and graduation. In many cases these festivities are accompanied by underage drinking, often with fatal consequences.

In fact, more underage deaths occur during the months of April, May and June than in any other time of the year, according to The Century Council. During this high-risk season it is important for purveyors of beverage alcohol to be especially vigilant in their sales and service. There are several precautions you can take to protect your business and promote public awareness of underage drinking.

The most obvious preventative measure is to be attentive as to who you are selling and serving your products to. This means not only closely inspecting IDs, but also paying attention to those who are with your customers or who may be waiting outside.

In many cases minors receive their al-cohol from the people closest to them. According to one study conducted by The Century Council, 65% of underage drink-ers receive alcohol from family and friends. Although it may be difficult to know where your products will end up, you can still re-mind your customers that underage drinking is both dangerous and illegal through the use of POS materials and your own displays. Several sources for in-store displays include the Federal Trade Commission,

which has developed the “We Don’t Serve Teens” campaign, and The Century Coun-cil, which provides “Cops in Shops” materi-als for retailers.

Beyond educating yourself and your customers, your staff should also be aware of the dangers of selling to minors. Providing training for your entire staff is one of the best insurance policies you can own. This may mean simply speaking with your employees about preventive measures or also providing them with training programs.

One of the most popular and effective educational courses offered is TIPS (Train-ing for Intervention ProcedureS). TIPS certification classes teach everything from spotting fake IDs and learning behavioral cues to responding to intoxicated individu-als. The training also provides a thorough overview of the laws and regulations for your city and state.

Certification can prove to be beneficial for both the establishment and the em-ployee. “What participants walk away with is certification for the business showing that the owners made an effort to prevent any in-

cidents from happening, and it also pro-tects the individual as well,” explains Trevor Estelle, who works with Health

Communications Inc., the providers of TIPS education.

Estelle also points to the value of becoming involved in your community.

“Becoming a vocal advocate in your area not only communicates that you are a re-sponsible business in the community, it also reinforces the importance of responsible consumption and the dangers of underage drinking,” an important message to send any month of the year. n

ABL conference coverAge

This year the American Beverage Licensees welcomed a record num-ber of ABL members and industry

professionals to its seventh annual conven-tion in Las Vegas, Nevada. The three-day event, held in early March, was jam-packed with seminars, panel discussions and a host of social events, providing a forum for retail-ers to discuss common problems and collec-tive solutions.

“This year’s convention proved to be a great opportunity for retailers to exchange information and share their perspective with CEOs and high-level alcohol industry executives,” said Susan Day Duffy, ABL’s di-rector of operations and trade relations

Many of these industry executives and industry leaders led a series of presentations focusing on current challenges for retail-ers and the industry as a whole. Following the convention’s theme, ‘Leveraging Your Strengths in Today’s Economy,’ many speak-ers focused on how to move forward even during challenging times.

Commenting on the current economic climate, John McDonnell, chief operat-ing officer/executive vice president for the Patrón Spirits Company said, “Let’s face it. With the economy the way it is, there seems to be fewer opportunities these days. How-ever, our industry is old enough to have sur-vived many hard times before.”

Also speaking on the economy, Jeff Becker, president of the Beer Institute, re-inforced the necessity of a united front: “It’s particularly important in today’s envi-ronment that the industry be unified. It’s very important that we understand what is going on with each of our respective [indus-try] organizations.”

Craig Wolf, president & CEO of Wine & Spirits Wholesalers of America, highlighted

the importance of collaboration when responding to out-side criticism. “How we present our-selves and our argu-ments matters,” he said. “We have to maintain credibility with those who have the power to act in ways detrimental to our interests.”

Focusing on other industry issues, Dr. Peter Cressy, president and CEO of the Dis-tilled Spirits Council of the United States (DISCUS), drew attention to the ongoing threats of tax increases and the importance of collaboration. “We are at a point where we need to avoid the perfect storm,” he as-serted. “The perfect storm is municipal, state and federal taxes all getting piled on top of one another. When we get a tax in your state, and we get together a hospitality coalition, we can pull together to get a lot of grassroots support.”

The Beverage Network showed its sup-port during the conference by hosting an ABL board of directors & trade press break-fast. Nearly every publisher of the thirty-three member publications of Beverage Media’s Beverage Network were on hand for the event. Mr. Slone, the Beverage Network chairman, remarked about the wonderful opportunity that the breakfast provided for the publishers and ABL members to discuss ways in which the publications could better serve retailers. Slone furthered this dialogue by leading a collaborative discussion with an off-premise panel, providing retailers with specific ideas and strategies to promote their business. This discussion was coupled

with an on-premise discussion moderated by former ABL president, Kevin O’Laughlin.

The conference also took time to honor industry veterans Ralph Aguera, this year’s Top Shelf Award recipient, and the former executive director of the Metropolitan Package Store Association, Bill McDevitt, who recently passed on. To honor McDe-vitt, his friend and fellow ABL board direc-tor Frank Anzalotti of the Massachusetts Package Stores Association offered a brief eulogy before reading Bill’s last Final Night Banquet benediction.

Closing out the conference, the ABL announced its incoming leadership. David Jabour, the CEO and co-owner of Austin, Texas-based Twin Liquors, will lead this year as ABL’s 4th president. Jabour will be supported by a newly-elected slate of ABL officers that includes VP Chuck Ferrar, MD; VP Melvin Gitler, NJ; VP Warren Scheidt, IN; VP Skip Boise, NY and Bob Sprenger, WI who will serve as at-large members to the executive committee. n

With his opening speech at last year’s NAB-CA conference, incoming chairman Doug Fox set the tone for a new spirit of collabo-ration for members of the Association. He chose ‘Building Bridges’ to be the theme for the year and called for members to reach out to the entire alcohol beverage community by forming new relationships.

“When I first came up with ‘Building Bridges,’ my concept was that we would at-tempt to improve communication with all the players involved with the spirits industry, including members of government and pub-lic health- those are our partners. I wanted to visit headquarters and speak with industry members to build stronger relationships and to understand their needs,” Fox explains.

These efforts have been well met. By the end of his year as chairman, Fox and other NABCA chair members will have visited 14 corporate headquarters. For Fox, visiting a company’s center of operations is both edu-cational and symbolic. “Since we ask mem-bers of the beverage alcohol industry to come to our meetings, I think it’s appropriate that NABCA go to their homes to get a better understanding of their issues and concerns.”

Added ValueOf course these educational visits have not been limited to board members. Fox prides himself on making sure that a wide range of members have the opportunity to learn more about the products they sell. Recent-ly a group of control state administrators, warehouse managers and buyers traveled to

Kentucky to visit the Sazerac and Maker’s Mark distilleries. Not only were the visitors able to see how bourbon is produced, but also how it is bottled and marketed. Fox explains that these visits are priceless when increas-ing members’ knowledge of the products on their shelves.

Gaining PerspectiveBeyond building new relationships within the beverage alcohol industry, the NABCA has placed an emphasis on strengthening its ties with public health groups, continuing its efforts to promote social responsibility. One successful example is the ongoing work of the health advisory committee, a panel comprised of individuals and organizations who study issues related to alcohol abuse. These discussions have drawn attention to controversial policies and products in the industry and have fostered dialogue about current alcohol legislation.

Reinforcing these discussions are several ongoing projects such as the Association’s annotated bibliography of research and its series of legislative updates. The bibliography, created under past chairman Ed Schmidt, is a collection of issues and subjects related to alcohol. The legislative updates, which are revised periodically, track each state’s current alcohol legislation, allowing mem-bers to follow political developments in their state and across the country. Informa-tion on the annotated bibliography and the legislative updates can be found on the association’s website, www.nabca.org.

The 27th Annual ConferenceThis year’s annual conference, being held in Phoenix on May 13th-17th, will also follow the theme of ‘Building Bridges,’ welcoming guest speakers from in and outside of the industry while also promoting dialogue between mem-bers. “The idea is to provide a venue where control state figures can interact with their business partners with the expectation that we can all learn from each other and bring something positive back for our prospective jurisdictions,” Fox explains.

In addition to offering seminars focus-ing on legislation, education and social re-sponsibility, this year’s conference will also welcome a group of keynote speakers from outside the industry. Specialists from a wide range of fields will include Washington Post columnist George Will, who will speak about today’s political environment; personal fi-nance guru Jane Bryant Quinn, who will lead a discussion on managing finances in today’s economy; and baseball stars Johnny Bench and Joe Morgan, who are leading a project to bring baseball back into inner cities, “build-ing bridges of their own,” adds Fox.

Of course the NABCA conference also represents a changing of the guard. This year the torch will be passed to Shauna Helfert from Montana. What advice does Fox have for his successor?

“Look to your predecessors. I have learned a great deal from the chairmen that came before me. I know Shauna will be suc-cessful and I hope she is able to build on the Association’s past achievements.” n

While bourbon and Scotch get more press, Irish whiskeys have quietly become the fastest growing, barrel-

aged spirit in America. According to Adams Liquor Handbook, sales of the classy import continued their climb up the charts growing at a blistering 18.4% in 2008, this compared to ostensibly flat growth for Scotch (1.6%) and Canadian (0.3%) experienced last year. So what’s the attraction? It may be no more complicated than Irish whiskeys are exceptionally easy to drink. They’re accessible, highly aromatic and loaded with palate pleasing flavors. Equally tempting, years of steadily increasing popularity hasn’t significantly driven up their price making them relative bargains. For a category long existing with nary a pulse, these are heady days. There was a time when Irish whiskey ruled supreme. By the end of the nineteenth century, there were over 160 active distilleries in the country producing 400 brands of Irish whiskey. It was exported to every port of call in Europe, the British Empire and America, exceeding the worldwide sales of all other types of whiskey combined. It had become the world’s spirit of choice. Two historical events brought the Irish whiskey industry to its knees. The first was the 1916 Irish War of Independence against Great Britain. In retaliation, England level a trade embargo with Ireland, which denied distillers access to markets throughout the British Empire. Then in 1919 came the American Prohibition and overnight Irish whiskey’s largest consumer base effectively vanished. The cumulative effect on the Irish economy was devastating. During the same time, Scotch whisky distillers were thriving. Unaffected by the British embargo, exports of Scotch skyrocketed and truckloads of whisky found their way across the Canadian border and into American speakeasies. Scotch soon became this country’s whisky of choice, a distinction that it hasn’t yet relinquished. There are several telling differences between Irish and Scotch whiskies. Unlike Scotch, Irish whiskey is distilled from both malted and unmalted barley. The malt used in the distillation is dried in closed kilns, rather than over peat fires as is the traditional practice in Scotland. As a result most Irish whiskeys lack the peaty smokiness of Scotch. Irish producers also triple-distill their whiskey and prefer to develop its character in the vat, rather than post-distillation blending. Ireland’s standards of quality are such that there is no such thing as a mediocre Irish

whiskey. In a marketplace where demand for super-premium spirits is soaring, Irish whiskeys are hot commodities. The strategy is clear, give the people what they want and order more bar stools. Here’s a brief look at the category’s franchise players.

•Black Bush — Created in 1934 by the master distiller at the Bushmills Distillery, the inimitable whiskey is a blend comprised principally of malted barley whiskeys triple-distilled in copper pot stills. Most are aged up to nine years largely in Oloroso sherry oak casks. Black Bush is a full-bodied beauty with a sherry influenced nose and a rich, malty palate. Its silky body makes Black Bush a highly accessible whiskey, an ideal entrée to the category. • Bushmills 16-Year Old Single Malt — This highly revered single malt is a blend of whiskies matured a minimum of 16 years in three different types of wood—ex-bourbon barrels, Port pipes and Oloroso sherry casks. Each wood contributes a distinctive character to the glorious finished product. It has a voluminous bouquet and a tantalizing, somewhat fruity palate. The finish is long and flavorful with delicate Port notes. •Connemara Single Malt — Produced at the renowned Cooley Distillery in Dundalk, this award-winning single malt is distilled in a traditional pot still using malted barley dried over a peat fire. The peat imbues Connemara with an intriguing smoky edge and flavor. It’s a glorious malt reminiscent of the whiskies of Islay. • Jameson 12-Year — John Jameson has been distilling whiskey since 1780 and their accumulated expertise is immediately evident in this 12-year old gem. It’s a blend of malted and unmalted barley whiskeys aged in ex-bourbon barrels and Oloroso sherry casks. The sherry-finished whiskeys in the blend give it a slightly sweet, fruity and nutty palate. • Jameson 18-Year — A stunning accomplishment that pays homage to the Jameson Distillery’s centuries old preference for aging whiskeys in Oloroso sherry casks. After maturing a minimum of 18-years in the sherry wood, the whiskey is finished for six-months in American oak. It has a wafting, sherry-influenced bouquet and a broad palate with nutty, spicy notes. An exquisite whiskey of great substance and style. •Knappogue Castle 1995 Single Malt — The current vintage of this celebrated single malt is the most robust and flavorful to date. The 12-year old, pot-distilled whiskey is generously aromatic and loaded with citrusy,

malty and honeyed notes. The finish is lingering and eminently satisfying. Knappogue Castle is an exceptional buy at twice the price. • Michael Collins Single Malt— Produced at the Cooley Distillery, this marvelous malt is distilled in small batches from 100% peated barley malt and matured in ex-bourbon barrels between 8 to 12 years. It has a brilliant bouquet and a dry, appetizing palate with succulent fruit notes. The malt finishes long and silky smooth. • Midleton Very Rare — The highly esteemed Midleton Very Rare is a vintage-dated blend comprised of pot-distilled whiskies made from both malted and unmalted barley and matured up to 25 years in American oak barrels. Only a scant 50 casks are bottled each year. Midleton VR has a luxurious pot-still character with a silky texture and mesmerizing array of flavors. •Power — In a country known for their abiding appreciation of whiskey, Power’s remains the best-selling brand in Ireland. It’s an elegant blend comprised of approximately 70% pot still whiskies and no malt used in the blend. Founded in 1791, Power’s was the first to market their whiskey in bottles. • Redbreast Pure Pot Still — This prestigious whiskey is crafted in heavy copper pot stills from malted barley and spring water and then barrel aged for a minimum of 12-years. The whiskey is complex, delightfully assertive and smooth as satin. It has a bouquet laced with malt and fruit aromas and a palate brimming with the flavors of honey, spice and sherry. • Tullamore Dew — Created in 1829, Tullamore Dew is triple-distilled in pot stills at the Midleton Distillery in Cork and aged for a minimum of three years in American oak barrels and ex-Sherry casks. It has a semi-sweet, fruity bouquet, a light body with a dry, woody palate with a caramel finish. Tullamore Dew is a premium dram at a value price. •Tyrconnell Single Malt — The brand dates back to 1762 and is now distilled at the Cooley Distillery, Tyrconnell is a flawless whiskey with a full body, malty bouquet and a slightly sweet flavor. It has a long, marvelously dry finish. Tyrconnell Single Malt compares quite favorably with the single malts of the Speyside.

SiDE Bar 1:

Mastering the irish CoffeeOne of the best reasons to open a bottle of whiskey is the Irish Coffee. As the story goes on a particularly cold evening in 1952, the chef at the Shannon airport restaurant laced his coffee with a healthy dram of whiskey, a spot of sugar and a layer of whipped cream. The combination was pronounced utterly delicious. The drink soon became a specialty of the airport’s bar and took on a life of its own after that. The same year, a columnist and travel writer for the San Francisco Chronicle passed through Shannon on his way home. He sampled several of the coffees and was immediately smitten. Word of the Shannon airport’s coffee made its way to the Buena Vista Café on Fisherman’s Wharf. The drink became an immediate hit and has been ever since. Despite its simplicity the appeal of the Irish Coffee is nearly universal. It’s prepared by lacing freshly brewed coffee with a splash of simple syrup, a measure of Irish whiskey and a layer of frothed milk or whipped cream. For sport try the Irish Coffee Royale. It features an additional shot of Kahlúa. Another version includes Bailey’s Irish Cream and a touch of Irish Mist or Celtic Crossing.—RP

SiDE Bar 2:Canadian Whiskies DiversifyFew whiskies are as smooth, mellow and eminently drinkable as those distilled in Canada. Until recently, all Canadian whiskies were made from blends of cereal grains—corn, barley, wheat, and rye—and aged for a minimum of three years. The exciting news is that this once staid and ultra-conservative category is undergoing a blast of new brand development. These new breed Canadians are definitely worth sampling. —RP • Crown Royal Special Reserve —Produced in limited quantity, this impeccable whisky is a blend of rare, well-aged malt and grain whiskies. The Special Reserve has a rich, spicy flavor and an expansive, long-lasting finish. • Pike Creek — A small batch whiskymade from a blend of grain whiskies, Pike Creek is finished in Cockburn Port pipes. The wine lends the whisky a sweet, fruity dimension that is most unexpected.

Lot No. 40 — Pot-distilled from small grains and malted rye, and aged in re-charred American oak barrels, Lot No. 40 is a big, powerful whisky with an assertiveness that heretofore has been unseen from Canadian whiskies. • Forty Creek Three Grain — Acaptivating blend of malted rye, malted barley and corn whiskies, each pot-distilled and aged 8-years in bourbon barrels and sherry casks. The varietal grains contribute individually to the whisky’s distinctive, complex character.

SiDE Bar 3:

new Age ScotchesScotch enthusiasts are different than your

average spirits drinker. Driven by the sense of discovery they thrive on sampling new expressions and unconventional bottlings. Scotch distillers appreciate the compelling desire because it’s the same force driving them. Those in the business know that when it comes to marketing Scotch intrigue sells.—RP •TheMacallanFine Oak — An innovative departure from The Macallan house style, the whiskies in the series all contain a percentage of malts aged in ex-bourbon barrels and bottled at 12-years, 15-years and 21-years in age. •Auchentoshan

Three Wood — This sublime, distinctively flavorful Lowland malt is finished in three different types of oak—American bourbon barrels, Oloroso sherry butts and Pedro Ximenez sherry casks. • Glenfiddich Solera Reserve — Abrilliantly flavorful malt aged 15-years by a system modeled after Spanish Soleras. Three different types of wood are used in production—used bourbon barrels, sherry butts and new oak casks. •TheGlenlivetFrenchOakReserve—The single malt is aged 15-years in ex-bourbon barrels and then a portion is finished in new, Limousin oak barrels. While still representative of the Glenlivet style, the French oak finishing adds some welcome spice. • Isle of Jura Superstition — From theisland’s lone distillery comes its most daring expression yet, Superstition, a blend of robust, peaty whiskies and traditionally finished malts.

“So what’s the attraction?

It may be no more

complicated than Irish

whiskeys are exceptionally

easy to drink.

They’re accessible, highly

aromatic and loaded with

palate pleasing flavors. .”

Store Wars... When NY Governor Paterson unleashed a proposal to radically change the beverage alcohol retail landscape by allowing wine to be sold in grocery stores, he lit a fuse which will keep burning even now that his plan has been shelved. Liquor stores in New York have always been very tightly restricted in what they can sell. There is almost nothing there a person under 21 can buy. That makes enforcing and obeying the minimum age law a lot easier. Kids generally have no business being in a New York liquor store. Wine and spirits have been the exclusive domain of the liquor stores in New York. For some reason, grocery stores could sell beer, but nothing stronger. Governor Paterson realized that the “simple” step of allowing grocery stores to sell wine would hugely expand the number of wine outlets and almost certainly give a nice boost to state revenues. But he did not have even a bone in his plan to toss to all the family owned liquor stores who would have one of the two legs they stood on kicked out from under them. Battles lines were quickly drawn. This was a nice opportunity for grocery stores – but life and death for the liquor stores. As a general rule, this column favors liberal and equal retail opportunities for all forms of beverage alcohol. However, changing the rules overnight in a way that seriously hurts people who have done nothing wrong is not the way to grow this industry. NY liquor stores fought hard and appear to have won this round. The wine in grocery stores plan is out of the Governor’s budget. The battle created some bad feelings between industry members which may last for some time to come. The outcome proves the value of strong associations who represent industry members at all levels and coordinate response to serious threats. You can’t build an army overnight. Wherever you are, learn from the New York example. Join and support your local and national trade association! Of course, reality always plays a role. While the wine in grocery stores plan was blocked, NY is planning on big increases in the excise tax on beer (27%) and wine (58%). Going Soft... Are soft drink sales an early indicator of our economic future? You may be surprised to learn that the volume of soft drinks sold in the U.S. began dropping way back in 2005! According to Beverage Digest, sales dropped slightly in 2005 and 2006, and then accelerated the trend by dropping 2.1 percent in 2007 and 3 percent in 2008. Price increases and the strength of higher cost energy drinks helped keep the industry green in terms of sales dollars during the period.

Shot & a trim … Guess I use the wrong barber. It seems that in Louisiana (and elsewhere?) barbers and hair salons sometimes like to offer some strong liquid refreshment to clients. Apparently, authorities in Louisiana have been cracking down on the practice of dispensing alcohol without a license in establishments where minors are frequently present. To the rescue comes Rep. Jerry Gisclair, who has introduced legislation to allow properly licensed cosmetologists to give one beer, one generous shot of liquor (2 ounces) or two 5 ounce glasses of wine to customers who are of legal age. We love amenities everywhere we go – but I suspect that more places dispensing free drinks is not on many lists of needed reforms in our society. Let’s tackle the important stuff first. axe the tax… English pubs are on the endangered species list since double digit tax increases on beer, wine and spirits last year. About 2,000 pubs have gone out of business since then and those remaining are fighting back. They’ve managed to get about 1/3 of the Members of Parliament to sign a Parliamentary Motion to ‘Save the Great British Pub’ by making sure there are no new taxes this year and maybe even rolling back last year’s increase.Cheer from beer… Jeff Becker, president of the Beer Institute (BI), recently announced new beer industry economic impact data at a joint Legislative Conference in Washington, DC held with the National Beer Wholesalers Association (NBWA). According to Becker, America’s beer industry generates $198 billion for the U.S. economy and employs nearly 1.9 million people directly and indirectly. The industry pays $62 billion in wages and benefits to its employees. It would be great if someone could develop similar numbers for the wine and spirits segments of the industry so that a true overall picture could be developed. I’ll bet somebody already has those numbers. Who will pull them together for the common good?I’ve always believed that the public deserves a clear understanding of the benefits of our system of alcohol beverage regulation and taxation. If Prohibition or anything like it ever returns, there will be no survivors. The entire beverage alcohol industry needs to pool at least some of their efforts towards building understanding and support for what has been achieved since Prohibition was repealed. Sure, the brands and the categories will always be fighting it out for their share of the consumer dollar. But we need wise leaders who can rise above the daily competition and make sure the public confidence on which all we do depends, remains strong.

ID Faker… State officials have charged a University of New Hampshire graduate student with operating a sophisticated false identification operation out of his off-campus residence, the Portsmouth Herald reported recently. Matthew Kramer, 22, of Durham, was arrested on a warrant for a class B felony charge of manufacturing/sale/possession of false identification, according to the state Liquor Enforcement office. The charge is punishable by prison time, said Major Todd Feyrer.Feyrer said Kramer’s arrest followed a month-long investigation by the State Liquor Commission’s Bureau of Enforcement, “after a recent spike in the number of false IDs confiscated in the Durham area.” Police agencies searched Kramer’s residence on March 20 and seized eleven false N.H. driver’s licenses, a desktop computer, a flash drive, a scanner/printer, laminating machine, bar code encoders and scanners, ID card stock, lamination stock and other items related to manufacturing the false IDs.Kramer’s identification operation was “absolutely” sophisticated, said Feyrer.Is this Kosher?… A new kosher tequila is being launched in time for Cinco de Mayo. Martin Silver, president of New York-based Star Industries, says Agave 99 will be on the market in time for the holiday that celebrates Mexico’s defeat of French forces on May 5, 1862. Silver says he wants to satisfy the craze for high-end tequila with one that observant Jews can drink.Silver says a half million cases of the 99-proof kosher tequila are being produced at a Mexican plant using methods certified by a rabbi. It will retail for $41.95 a bottle. The product launch - with Mexican songs sung in both Yiddish and Spanish - is set for May 5.red Is Sexy?… Red wine increases the female libido, according to a study carried out by the Santa Maria Nuova Hospital in Florence, Italy. The study investigated 789 Italian women aged between 18 and 50. Drinking red wine apparently not only helps to release inhibitions, but also has a direct effect on sexual activity. Women who drink one to two glasses of wine a day were found to be more sexually active than those who abstain. Dark chocolate, which is rich in antioxidants, has a similarly positive effect on the female libido. Just thought you’d like to know. ■Duncan H.

Brand Profile

While Ferrari-Carano has been a market leader for more than twenty years, and is always de-

veloping exciting new wines to maintain their niche in California wine production, one thing that is not new to founders Don and Rhonda Carano is their green approach to winemaking, from the fields to the table. Though winemaking has generally been a “green” production process in many respects, the Caranos and their team have always made it a point to take care of the earth.

“Long before the public became tuned in with such issues as global warming, Ferrari-Carano has practiced sustain-able farming techniques, from vineyard to bottle,” says Rhonda Carano. “We believe working hand-in-hand with nature enhanc-es the quality of the fruit. For this reason the winery gives back to the land in many ways, such as ensuring natural crop nutrition by recycling organic matter for use as mulch in the vineyards, planting cover crops and in-tergrating desirable plants and animals.”

Though the balance between on- and off-premise sales is shift-ing, the Caranos point out there are ways to create excitement for their new releases, as well as ways on-and off-premise accounts may help their customers find joy in re-discovering classic reds and whites with fresh new twists. The new promotions and forthcoming re-leases reflect their preparedness for those shifts.

“Some of our more recent

promotions and campaigns reflect people’s desire to stay closer and entertain more at home,” Rhonda Carano points out. “We are focusing on Ferrari-Carano’s longevity in the market, emphasizing quality and value com-bined. Recent Ferrari-Carano ad headlines

have included, ‘A Tradition of Excellence Time and Time Again,’ ‘Fall In Love Again and Again’ and a ‘Tried & True Friend’ phi-losophy in our marketing efforts.”

“Ferrari-Carano is a consistent, famil-iar face that has always provided quality and value in every bottle of wine, at every price point,” concurs Don Carano. “With a diverse portfolio of wines to choose from, we are proud to be able to offer high-quality wines for every budget and every palate, while being respectful of the land for future generations.”

Among this year’s new releases, the 2007 Ferrari-Carano Tre Terre Chardonnay from Russian River Valley is full-bodied and rich with a delicious fruit component. The 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon’s depth and showy tan-nins make it perfect for pairing with red meats and strong-flavored cheeses.Those who prefer powerful, robust Cabernets will also enjoy PreVail West Face and PreVail Back Forty, two Cabernets from Ferrari-Carano’s mountain ranches in Alexander

Valley. They are also particularly proud of their 2008 Fumé Blanc, as it is such a versatile wine.

“We have an opportunity to tell our story, get personal with our customers via our wines,” con-cludes Rhonda Carano. “While wine lovers are cutting back and searching for value-oriented, quality wines, they want to iden-tify with the personalities behind Ferrari-Carano. It’s not just a bot-tle of wine, it’s a lifestyle.” n

Three Cheers for the Reds, Whites and Green

Ferrari-Carano stays successful beyond its great American wines, putting more emphasis on

environmentally sound practices and providing superb value for trade and consumers.
