Low No Drinker

? INSIDE ISSUE-13 ? Our book review inside Issue-13 is HOOKED by Talitha Fosh MBACP FDAP Reviewed by Ariel Ng Bourbonnais “What Hooked does well is teach the reader techniques to become healthier and to understand our reliance on external things to soothe, excite, or distract ourselves. As someone who clutches their caffeinated cup with two shaky hands, I wanted to know the 'why' behind some of my daily (and not-so-healthy) habits.” Pre-order now! https://lnkd.in/eeNh973R

? NEW BLOG ? OK, it’s time to stop all the low/no/mid wine bashing now. Yes, it’s well established that the wine industry is behind the curve when it comes to producing wines with less alcohol, but this constant bashing of the low/no/mid wine industry isn’t helping anyone.

The way we drink is changing. This is what it looks like when the industry evolves — together. I'm THRILLED to share that De Soi is launching a national partnership with Southern Glazer's Wine & Spirits, bringing our non-alcoholic cocktails to more bars, restaurants, and retailers across the country. For a small team building something from the ground up, this is a milestone that means a lot; not just because of the scale it unlocks, but because of what it signals about where the industry is headed. Non-alc isn’t niche anymore. People expect great options — at the bar, at dinner, or at home — and they deserve better than seltzer with lime. Working alongside the Southern Glazer’s team, we can meet that demand in more places than ever before. It’s not always easy, when you’re building, to pause and mark the big moments. But this is one we’re celebrating. Huge thanks to the Southern Glazer’s team — especially Louis Zweig and Steve Cohen — for believing in our vision and helping us bring it to life at scale. And of course, endless gratitude to the incredible De Soi team — John Cochran, Morgan McLachlan, Kristin C., Mariana Larsen, Amruta V., Eric Wu, Denise Shon, Stephanie Still, Macy Scruggs, Sarah Sotero, Antonio Landa and Nina de Leon — who make moments like this possible!!

??Low No Drinker Podcast ?? Just past their two-year birthday, ZENOWINE alcohol-liberated wines are a range of five (for now) hand-crafted wines, made “for wine enthusiasts when they choose to abstain”. In this week’s conversation, I talk to co-founder David Hodgson MBA about his transition from 25 years in traditional wine to launching an alcohol-free wine brand amidst the uncertainty of COVID, Brexit & a fledgling category presented to an unforgiving market. We also touch on the inspirational philosophies behind the brand name, the growth of the non-alcoholic wine sector and ZENO’s plans for development of both a new “serious” red wine and RTD wines in a can. It’s a great convo with lots to sink your teeth into. Pour a glass, sit back and enjoy. Listen now! https://lnkd.in/eKw3kT9X

? NEW BLOG ? The drinks section of any supermarket has undergone a significant change.

‘We’re in the supermarkets - we’ll make millions now!’ ..but this isn’t necessarily the case! Listen to my chat with Pooja Sharma-Jones CMO of Mocktail Beverages Inc. and their journey into the supermarkets!

They say it’s all about Gen Z but Kantar research suggests that low/no alc sales made a 7% jump this January (4 weeks to Jan 26th) compared to the same time last year and that older consumers are just as likely to embrace these alternatives as younger generations.
