Bruce D. Stevenson,, Superintendent

he Ohio Division of Liquor Control continues working with the alcohol beverage industry and supporting common sense regulations to help Ohio businesses thrive. here are some highlights of recent activity: SPiriTS iNNOvaTiON PrOgraM: This month we are launching the Spirits innovation Program (called “SiP”). SiP’s mission is to enhance the overall shopping experience and modernize the look and feel of our liquor agencies through best-in-class category development practices and quality customer service. The plan is to reset our top 125 liquor agencies over the next year to optimize product selection, maximize consumer value, and increase shopper satisfaction by providing an improved and consistent store experience. innovation by manufacturers to meet consumer tastes has led to a much wider variety of spirits products than ever before. With the explosion of new products, it is imperative we take advantage of quantitative data, retail intelligence and analysis to make 6 OhiO Beverage MONThLY MaY 2013

smart, calculated decisions about the sale of spirits. We have chosen Diageo as our lead Category Partner and republic National Distributing Company as our lead validator for SiP to guide us in this process and help us achieve our goals. With the support of our Liquor agents and other industry partners, SiP will help us continue to grow our business responsibly while giving the citizens of Ohio a better and more fulfilling shopping experience. LegiSLaTive UPDaTe: Senate Bill 298, which went into effect on March 22, 2013, changed Ohio law affecting the operation and issuance of temporary permits allowing non-profit organizations to sell beer, wine, and intoxicating liquor at special events (F-2 permit). The new law: • Increases the maximum duration of event from two to four consecutive days; • Allows qualifi ed organizations to receive one F-2 permit every 30 days rather than two per year; • Adds “political” to list of qualified event purposes; • Exempts the F-2 permit from Sunday sale local option authorization if the event includes other days of the week.

• Expands the classes that the F-2 applicant may file jointly with to include D-1, D-2 and D-5a through D-5o; • Allows an F-2 permit to be issued for the same location as an F-8 permit if certain criteria are met. OhiO LiQUOr CONTrOL COMMiSSiON aDMiNiSTraTive rULe ChaNgeS (eFFeCTive FeBrUarY 25, 2013: • Rule 17: Eliminates the requirement for breweries and wineries (that do not hold an a-1a permit) to have separate toilet facilities for men and women. • Rule 45: Clarifi es that alcohol manufacturers cannot rebate to the customer an amount equal to or greater than the amount paid for the alcoholic beverage item. • Rule 52: Clarifi es that permit holders, their agents or employees cannot be intoxicated while working on the permit premises. • Rule 72: Clarifi es that retail permit holders can sell packages of beer that are put together by the customer, which contain two or more different brands.

iD Scanners

Check iD every Purchase BY Dave raBer

s every liquor permit holder in Ohio must be aware, the sale of alcohol beverages to a person under twenty-one years of age is prohibited. Section 4301.69(a) of the Ohio revised Code is where the prohibition is found in Ohio law. it is a strict liability offense, meaning, if the permit holder, an employee, or agent sells to a person under twentyone, when proven, a violation of law has occurred. a charge under 4301.69(a) is subject to affirmative defenses under r.C. 4301.639 and r.C.

Dave raber, OLBa Legal Co-Counsel

4301.611. To establish an affirmative defense under r.C. 4301.639, the person selling the alcoholic beverage must establish that identification was presented at the time of sale, the identification was checked at the point of sale and that the seller had reason to believe that the person buying was then of legal age. To establish an affirmative defense under r.C. 4301.611, the following must occur: 1) a transactional scan of the driver’s or commercial driver’s license or identification card that the card holder presented indicated that the license or card was valid; 2) the alcoholic beverage was sold to the card holder in reasonable reliance upon the identification presented and the completed transaction scan. in interpreting r.C. 4301.639, the courts have held that identification must be checked at every point of sale. Perhaps this is the most misunderstood element comprising the affirmative defense. The law requires, for example, if an individual was to purchase four alcoholic beverages, even when such sales occur in one night, the seller must check and recheck that purchaser’s identification during all four point of sales. When a permit holder only checks the identification during

the first purchase and law enforcement officials observe a subsequent purchase and identification is not checked, then if the purchaser is underage, the affirmative defense will not be available. identification must be checked during each and every purchase. This is burdensome for permit holders conducting business on very busy nights, but the state of Ohio has a substantial interest in keeping alcohol out of the hands of persons under the age of twenty-one. as such, the law requires that identification be checked at the time of purchase, i.e. when the alcoholic beverage is physically delivered to the prospective customer, each time a purchase is made. a transaction scan devices should be able to read a Driver’s or Commercial Driver’s License. (vaLiD – not expired); a Military identification Card issued by the United States Department of Defense; an Ohio identification Card issued under sections 4507.50 to 4507.52 of the Ohio revised Code. (Only Ohio is acceptable). The transaction scan device should be used for the purchase of all alcoholic beverages, beer, wine and spirituous liquor; and the transaction scan device should be at each operating register where all alcoholic beverages, beer, wine and spirituous liquor is sold. The Department of Commerce, Division of Liquor Control suggests “[w]hether or not you use an automatic reader/scanner device, it is critical that you and your employees compare the photo presented with the persons seeking to make a purchase and refuse such a sale when the person and the photo do not appear to match.” There are protections against underage sales of alcohol. Law enforcement agencies are conducting compliance checks and sending underage informants into permit premises to enforce r.C. 4301.69. generally, the underage informant will show his/her actual driver license if identification is requested by the seller. Therefore, it is very important to properly instruct all employees to not only check identification, but also check to make certain the identification tendered confirms the purchaser’s age to be over twenty-one years.

addition By Subtraction . . . .

The Legislature’s Subtraction Of internet Sweepstakes is an addition For Your Bar! BY JaCOB C. evaNS Over The LaST SeveraL MONThS, There haS BeeN a greaT DeaL OF POLiTiCaL DiSCUSSiON aND MeDia COverage regarDiNg iNTerNeT Or SWeePSTaKeS ParLOrS

Jacob C. evans, OLBa Legal Co-Counsel

ver the last several months, there has been a great deal of political discussion and media coverage regarding internet or sweepstakes parlors. at the end of 2012, the Ohio house of representatives passed a bill to regulate these type of establishments out of business. With the end of any general assembly, any bill not passed and sent to the governor must be reintroduced. To that end, the house introduced house Bill 7 and passed it earlier this year. Upon receiving the Bill, there were rumors regarding the potential action by the Senate . . . would they agree to the house’s ban? Would they simply try to regulate these enterprises but still allow them to continue to operate in much the same fashion? Or would they do nothing? Much of the debate came to a screeching halt on april 24th. Senate President Keith Faber announced that the Senate would take almost immediate action in a two step process. First, the Senate will extend the moratorium that was enacted last

www.ohiobeveragemonthly.com

year and is set to expire at the end of June. Secondly, the Senate will pass house Bill 7 to create a regulatory structure that will effectively shut down the sweepstakes parlors. So why is the subtraction of sweepstakes parlors an addition for your establishment? Currently, sweepstakes or internet games are not allowed in liquor permit establishments, as confirmed by an 8th District Court of appeals decision. Since this form of gaming is not allowed in bars, taverns and other liquor permit establishments, it was not only a form of entertainment we could not offer, but also one that

competed directly with charitable gaming. as you are aware, Ohio law was changed to allow bars and other establishments to conduct charitable gaming on behalf of an licensed charity and be reimbursed up to 6% of the total gross receipts from the sale of the box of tickets. So while bars and establishments are able to conduct a form of entertainment that goes for a public purpose, be it charitable gaming for charities or lottery for education, other establishments were conducting games where the money went to a single place . . . their pockets!

Is your organization maximizing its workers’ compensation savings potential?

Charitable Gaming Partnerships

Good for Charities AND Bars? BY PHILIP A. CRAIG BARS WOULD DO WELL TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE OPPORTUNITY TO BUILD ANOTHER REVENUE STREAM AND OFFER SOMETHING NEW AND EXCITING FOR PATRONS Bars that are having the greatest success selling pull tabs have a few things in common. Phil Craig, Executive Director

s expected, HB 386 that allows bars (and other businesses) to sell instant bingo tickets (pull tabs) for local charities has been a good source of fundraising for organizations; the question is has it been equally as profitable for bars and taverns now that they can receive up to 6% of gross pull tab sales? All indications are that this legislation has been beneficial to bars and that partnering with a local charity can have a positive impact for both. It has been almost 12 months since the Governor signed HB 386, allowing bars in Ohio to sell instant bingo tickets for charities and receive up to 6% of the gross receipts of the game, much like the Lottery program. There has definitely been a learning curve to get started, for both charities and bars. Just as things were getting started, the license renewal process and timing slowed the momentum of bars that were to quick get on-board early. Most hiccups in the licensing process have been resolved and we are seeing many more bars beginning to sell pull tabs. So just how profitable is it for bars to sell pull tabs? David George, President of the Ohio Coin Machine Association & President of Akron based Bell Music, says it can be very profitable. On average, he is seeing numbers average in the $450 - $500 per month range and expects that number to only rise. George says the bars that are embracing the best practices for selling pull tabs are making far greater than that. 10 Ohio Beverage MONTHLY MAY 2013

• They promote pull tabs and incorporate the fun and winning into their bar culture and personality. • They get their wait staff and bartenders involved in getting patrons excited about the games. • They offer a variety of ticket and have multiple games going at the same time. • They use multiple bins to display pull tabs behind the bar. • They pay out in small bills so players continue to play. Besides the obvious benefit of increased cash flow, bars are seeing other benefits as well. These include: • Increased loyalty. Patrons love winning and winning creates loyalty. • Increased spend at the bar. Prizes are paid ONLY at the location that sold the ticket, which means it is spent there also. • Increased interaction with bar staff. Players love the interaction and bar staff report increased tips when pull tabs are sold from bins behind the bar. • Creates a fun environment. Pull tabs promote a fun and exciting atmosphere. • Making a positive impact in their communities. Money stays local and benefits a charity in the bar’s county. Some bars have been slower to take advantage of the recently enacted legislation citing concerns that selling pull tabs will take away from money spent on other types of games they might offer. When asked

about this concern, George says he has heard this concern too, but offers reassurance that his members are experiencing just the opposite. “Based on our customer’s locations sales before and after they introduced tickets , we have found that proceeds from pull tab sales actually increase the spend on other games and that patrons are staying in the bars longer and spending winnings on other bar entertainment”, says George. Others state they don’t think they will make enough money to make it worth their time, they don’t have the necessary staff, or the process is too complicated. “We know the bars are making money and each month they are making more”, says George. Getting started can be a learning experience. However, there are companies out there that can help. Two of the biggest names in charitable gaming, Lancaster Bingo Company and Nannicola, Inc. have teamed up to form All-Star Gaming (ASG) for the specific purpose of bringing bars and charities together. They help to simplify the complexity of the state regulations and streamline the process of requesting product and paying the bars. They have set up a system that allows bars to order product from their partnered charity 24/7 utilizing a website (www.charitypulltabs.com) and have product delivered directly to their door. So, are charitable gaming partnerships good for charities AND Bars? Bottom line, they ARE good for both. Bars would do well to take advantage of the opportunity to build another revenue stream and offer something new and exciting for patrons. Bars will definitely be

at an advantage to be the first in the neighborhood to enter this market, rather than the last. www.ohiobeveragemonthly.com

Mixology Competition], and that’s exciting because this year we’re introducing beer. We have two separate unique launches at the convention, plus Dan Aykroyd is coming this year to support his vodka, Crystal Head. He knows that it’s about business, and business requires you to be present. He’s got the right idea. He comes to our convention, he works the wholesalers, works the crowd. If celebrities want to be successful, they better approach it as more than just getting a name out and assuming it will sell. We’ve seen plenty of flash-in-the-pans come and go. If you want to make it work, you better be prepared to make it work. And how do you do that in this country? You partner with wholesalers. TBN: How important is making a great presentation on the exhibit floor?

Craig Wolf President & CEO, Wine & Spirits Wholesalers of America (WSWA) The Beverage Network recently sat down with Craig Wolf, in advance of the 2013 Convention in Orlando, FL, to discuss the state of the association, their most pressing issues and the value of the convention.

ON THE CONVENTION THE BEVERAGE NETWORK: This year marks WSWA’s 70th anniversary. Tell us what’s new with the convention? CRAIG WOLF: We want to change, make it fresh, make it exciting. If you look at the convention where it is today, compared to where it was when I started 13 years ago, it’s unrecognizable. From the

competitions we have now—suppliers line up to be in these competitions—to the events, to the types of educational sessions we’re offering. We’ve sold out all the lower level space, and we have sold out all the traditional suites. Basically we had to offer additional opportunities for people to exhibit just at the Taste of the Industry, because we had no other opportunities. And we actually have a new competition this year, Hoptails [Hoptails

CW: The fact is that when most suppliers—small suppliers—get into market, they don’t have the resources to go out to retailers and explain their products. They are start-ups and they are just trying to figure things out. That’s what wholesalers do, but you still have to sell the wholesaler in the first instance. When you get to our convention, the same thing applies. You have all this exhibit space. You have all these people on the floor, on the lower levels. If you’re not smart in how you market at the convention, you’re going to be left behind. We always run into people at/ after the convention who say, “You know, my experience was great. Within one day, I made this connection and that one.”

ON THE ASSOCIATION TBN: You’ve been at WSWA since 2000—you started as general counsel—and you’ve been president since 2006. What do you see as your biggest achievements during your tenure?

CW: I like to think of it in two ways— internal and external. Internally, I wanted to modernize the organization from a business standpoint. I wanted to create a top-notch staff that was fully integrated with each department so we had a really effective organization. My goal was to make sure that every position had the right person with the right experience to do the job. And then to get the systems up to date, too—accounting software, membership software, renovating the office. We’re almost completed on this front. In fact, we’re going to have a bar as our reception desk so we can have events there as well. Externally, I wanted to make sure that people understood we were not a onetrick pony, that we had many issues we were concerned about. Our agenda is very broad. So we cover state issues, we cover federal issues—not just three-tier issues, but we also deal with tax issues, food safety issues. And we’ve got issues coming up dealing with transportation, and some of the wage/hours service issues. We wanted to make sure that our capabilities were responding to the needs of our members, which we’ve done.

“WHAT I DON’T WANT TO SEE—IN AN ASSOCIATION WHERE THE BIG GUYS PROVIDE A GREAT PERCENTAGE OF FUNDING— IS TO FORGET THAT WE REPRESENT ALL DISTRIBUTORS. WE ARE FAR BETTER SERVED IF WE REPRESENT EVERYBODY.”

reason. They join for the convention, to pick up product. They’re trying to grow, they want to see what’s out there and what they can carry and sell. They’re more focused on their bottom lines. The more experienced, veteran members are all about government affairs, litigation, how are we protecting their interests. There’s a dichotomy between the old and the new. We have affinity programs, that didn’t exist before 2006; these programs offer our members very significant savings every year on things like insurance.

ON LEGISLATION & REGULATION

TBN: What is your take on consolidation at the wholesale level? How are you able to maintain your appeal to smaller distributors?

TBN: What are some of the political issues WSWA is expecting to deal with in the near future?

CW: Consolidation’s an issue. What I don’t want to see—in an association where the big guys provide a great percentage of funding—is to forget that we represent all distributors. We are far better served if we represent everybody. If we go around saying we represent only 10 wholesalers in this country, even if it’s 60% of the volume, that’s not good enough for me. I want to keep growing and broadening. The guys that join us now, the smaller distributors, join us more for a business

CW: We’re focused on the tax agenda most importantly at this point. We don’t see excise tax right now as being an issue, but it could come up. It’s been awhile, so we’re prepared to deal with that if it comes up. On the regulatory side of things, I think it’s growing in importance and we just don’t know what’s going to come out from the administration when it comes to labor, for instance, and environmental issues that will affect us. It’s very perplexing, because you

www.ohiobeveragemonthly.com

MAY13_CraigWolf_V2.indd 3

don’t know what they’ve got planned. They held a lot of stuff off pending the election. We know they are going to start coming out with regulations that could affect our members in areas that we didn’t necessarily foresee. So we’re going to make sure we’re trying to cover those areas.

ON PRIVATIZATION TBN: In 2012, Washington State approved privatization. Now Pennsylvania is moving in that direction. Where does WSWA stand on privatization? CW: First of all, we look at Washington State as what not to do. We’ve never taken a position in favor of or opposed to privatization. States have to make that determination. But, whenever they go into these discussions they should be very careful how they tinker with the system, because the fact is that the systems that have existed in the licensed and control states creating the divisions between the tiers has been very successful. When you talk in Pennsylvania about privatization, make sure you understand that you can privatize it, if that’s what your people want and your legislature decides, but don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater. Keep the regulations. Keep control. Keep accountability. n

Young Adults are Fast Becoming the Most Important Wine-Drinking Generation BY JEFF SIEGEL

ohn’s Grocery in Iowa City is an upscale wine retailer whose customers include doctors and employees of the nearby University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine. As such, says wine buyer Wally Plahutnik, his customers are knowledgeable and service oriented, regardless of age and demographic. Except for one very intriguing thing. “I can’t get the older ones to use the camera on their phone to take a picture of the wine label,” he says. “The younger ones, no problem. But the older customers still come in and tell me they had a bottle of wine, but can’t remember the name. And when I ask them why they don’t use the camera, they just sort of look at me.” In this, Plahutnik is in the middle of one of the biggest changes the wine business has ever seen—the revolution in consumer demographics, of which the role of new technology is just one small part. The Baby Boomers, born

between 1948 and 1962 and widely regarded as the best friend that retailers and restaurateurs ever had, are becoming increasingly less important in the mar-

ketplace. Their replacement? The Millennials, two generations behind them but already numerically more significant among core wine drinkers, according to the 2012 Wine Market Council report. Though the Boomers make up 38% of wine drinkers, they consume only 32% of the wine. The numbers for Millennials are 29% and 38%. More broadly, Boomers will account for less than 20 percent of the U.S. population over the next eight years, and the number of Baby Boomers younger than 60 will fall by more than two-thirds, according to a 2012 study by Jeffries-Alix Partners. Meanwhile, Millennials (born between the early 1980s and the early 2000s) older than 25 will make up almost one-fifth of the country’s population. And that doesn’t take into account the 8 million Millennials who will turn 21 and start buying wine over the next three years. “The Boomers are famous for consuming more stuff than anyone else in

history,â&#x20AC;? says Dan Graham, a vice president with the Dechert-Hampe marketing consultancy in southern California. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The question is not so much whether the Millennials will be like them, but how to reach them, since theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re so different from the Boomers.â&#x20AC;? The key is understandingâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;or, first, trying to identifyâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;those differences. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one thing to market to Millennials with cute wine names or to approach them through social media because they use it, but that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to work. The Millennials may not be as jaundiced as their older cousins, the Gen Xers (born between born the mid-1960s and the early 1980s) about marketing, but theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re still more wary than the Boomers. Also important, and often overlooked: Any discussion of the Millennials must take into account three things. First, that since the end of World War II, the U.S. economy experienced unprecedented growth. Will that continue? Many of the projections on Millennial spending assume theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have the same economic opportunities that the Boomers did, and that may not be the case given what appear to be major structural changes in the U.S. economy (to say nothing of ongoing wrangling about government spending). Second, the Millennials are saddled with $1 trillion in college debt, which could limit their spending in a way that didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bother the two older demographics. One guess is that the Millennialsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; penchant for low-cost social events like Wine Riot and the success of companies like Groupon represent evidence that they want to go out but canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford the bars and clubs that the Gen Xers and Boomers could. Third, says John Gillespie, president of Wine Market Council, there appear to be some differences between younger Millennials, ages 21-28, and those 28 -36. The latter, he says, act more like Boomersâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;more willing to spend money, for instance. The younger group may change as it ages, too, but no one knows for sure.

information. In this, they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see a need for traditional customer service (which theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never experienced anyway), since they do it themselves. In their world, warehouse stores like Costco are the rule and not the exception, and it shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be surprising that 75% of the customers at Wine.com, the biggest Internet wine retailer, are between 21 and 49. Where they shop. Millennials donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t shop at grocery stores the way Boomers do, something that has the national supermarket chains worried, according to the Alix Jeffries Partners study: â&#x20AC;&#x153;This transformation has the potential to create a chaotic marketplace that markedly changes where and how consumers shop for groceries, as well as what products they bring home.â&#x20AC;? Instead, says Graham, Millennials prefer retailers that are local and interesting, hence their fascination with stores like Trader Joeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and Whole Foods.

Moving forward, every business looking to capture Millennial dollars needs to know what sets them apart from the Boomersâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;things that take into account not just demographic but economic and cultural differences: How they use technology. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just that Millennials (and Gen Xers) are more tech savvy than Boomers, as Plahutnik has seen. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s that the two demographics grew up with technology and see it as a normal part of their life. So itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not unusual for them to Google a product while theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re shopping, or to text a friend for }

OCCASION

Gen Xers, the demographic between the Baby Boomers and the Millennials, are often overlooked. One reason is that there aren’t as many of them—only 50 million or so, about two-thirds of the Millennials. They’re also among the most difficult to reach, more cynical about marketing and less trusting than the Boomers. But they’re entering their peak earning years, and the 2012 Wine Market Council report notes that they are playing a crucial role in the wine business:

their high standards, Millennials won’t shop there. Convenience is important, because they’re so pressed for time, but they also want products that are sourced and manufactured safely and humanely. They don’t pay lip service to green labels the way Boomers do. }

Who they trust. It’s not the tradi-

tional wine experts—critics, magazines and the like—that drive consumption among Boomers. Plahutnik says his younger customers are usually surprised when he shows them less expensive, quality wine; they’re not used to getting advice from someone like him. Rather, says Gillespie, they ask their friends and family; if their circle likes the wine, then it’s good enough to drink. } Private labels. Millennials love them, says Graham, especially when they come from a trusted retailer like Trader Joe’s. This gives them an emotional connection to the product, so they’re buying on more than a cheap price. In addition, buying a private label from a trusted retailer makes the purchase decision easier. } The interplay between price, value

and status. “Millennials are at the cut-

ting edge in the industry in getting away from statusy brands,” says August Sebas-

tiani, the president of California producer The Other Guys. “They’ll spend money for quality, but they also want value. They won’t buy something just because it’s expensive.” This, he says, is a key difference between Boomers and Millennials. The former will serve a bottle of wine because it got 98 points and they want to impress their friends. The latter, on the other hand, will serve wine they like, and they don’t really care about scores, if it cost a lot, or if anyone else has ever heard of it (one reason why Millennials are at the forefront of the local wine movement). They like making discoveries, says Sebastiani, and they want their friends to like what they find as well. Then word of mouth takes over, and texts, posts and tweets follow about the wine. ■

Social Media for a Social Business Some Industries are Tailor-Made for Social Media. Wine Tops the List. BY MEG HOUSTON MAKER, CSW

ine is social. Sure, you can drink it solo, but it’s best enjoyed with friends, food and conversation. Selling wine is social, too. Canny wine marketers know this in their bones. The job isn’t about moving a bottle of wine across a counter. That’s just the transaction. The job is about great service, gonzo enthusiasm and killer personality. They approach a customer, ask the right questions, listen carefully, suggest wisely. If the customer goes away smiling and the wine is a hit, the customer will come back. And next time, bring friends. If any industry is tailored for social

media, it’s wine. The proof is in the data. According to VinTank, a social media software company for the wine business, 14 million people have mentioned wine online at some point, a number that grows by 450,000 people every month. And they’re talking a lot, having 1.5 million conversations about wine online— every single day. The bulk of this chatter happens on mainstream social networks like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, plus winecentric apps like CellarTracker and Delectable. People post tasting notes, bottle shots, and ratings from 88 points to Yuck to Wow! They tag their friends, who share

it too. Think of social media as the breeding ground for digital word of mouth. Now, producers, retailers, restaurateurs and buyers have joined the conversation. Getting up to speed in social media means learning a new technology, but that’s not so different from learning a new point-of-sale system (and arguably a little easier). Happily, many wine pros find that success online requires the same kind of sensitivity and savoir-faire their jobs demand in real life. “Customers are going to talk whether you’re listening or not,” says VinTank’s CEO, Paul Mabray. “You’d answer the phone if they called you. You’d answer an

email. It’s fundamental customer service to answer a tweet, or a post on your Wall. And you don’t answer in stupid promotional ways. You just say, ‘Hey, how are you doing?’” But social media success does require a slight shift in thinking. Traditional marketing was about push. A marketer publishes a notice about a holiday sale, or the arrival of a scarce Bordeaux, hoping customers will come pouring in. Social media is about pull. Instead of broadcast-and-pray, a marketer goes where the customers are, connects with them, and engages with them on their terms. A restaurant, for example, might monitor their mentions on Twitter and follow and reply to customers who tweet about them. A retailer might set up a Facebook page and run a promotion targeted at locals with food and wine interests. Or they might share a photo of a bottle one of their staff had on vaca-

tion and loved so much that the store is now stocking it. The engagement happens in bits and pieces, and not just between one customer and one marketer, because others can chime in, too. It’s a conversational marketplace; and not just two-way, it’s multi-way. Over time, the conversation takes on a life of its own. Alex Moskovitz, who runs social media marketing for Anfora, a wine bar in New York City, might post a tweet about what’s happening in the bar, then watch as followers start kibitzing with each other. “I don’t have to be the only one talking with them all the time,” she says, “And that’s what a bar is.” Not surprisingly, the online chitchat reaches a peak on evenings and weekends—and it’s always wine-o’clock somewhere. Hospitality pros can’t expect to connect with their core customers if they’re only online from 9 to 5, Monday through Friday. “It takes constant monitoring,” Moskovitz concedes, so that

###########################################################################

Getting Started with Social Media Get an account (or two). Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram are my top recommendations. Add Yelp and OpenTable if you’re a bar or restaurant. If only one account seems manageable, focus on Facebook if you’re a retail store or restaurant, and Twitter if you’re an importer, distributor, producer or brand manager. Start by listening. Find and follow people in your circles— retail shops, restaurants, neighbors, customers, writers, winemakers. What are they saying about your category? Also monitor mentions of your brand and staff. Use a dash-

board tool like HootSuite or TweetDeck to keep track of several threads at once. Hashtags (e.g., #malbec), are used on Twitter to categorize tweets and facilitate searching. Engage, share, link. Ask questions! It’s a great way to get conversation started. Thank anyone who praises you publicly, and re-post to your own accounts. Respond open-mindedly to critiques and address problems quickly. On Twitter, follow-back anyone who looks legitimate so you can communicate via Direct Message—another demonstration of trust. A common misperception is that channels are awash in people (over)sharing mundane details of their lives. Tweets and

posts are frequently executed with links that connect to more content on a website. Be yourself. Remember that companies don’t talk, people talk. It’s OK to post an occasional update about your ski trip or your car breaking down. Christy Frank, of Manhattan wine shop Frankly Wines, has only one Twitter account for both her personal and professional life. “That’s one of the reasons my Twitter strategy has been successful,” she says. “People know who they’re talking to. It’s not just a black box.” Tell stories. Show people what’s happening in the trenches. If your buyers are in Spain, have them take a slew of

pictures. If a winemaker or rep is pouring wines in your shop that evening, post it or tweet it. Visual media is especially powerful. Monitor, measure and adjust your mix. If you don’t have Google Analytics on your website and online store, get it installed. Track inbound traffic from social media and tie it to resulting sales. Be opinionated. Tell your customers why you think this wine matters. Share your enthusiasm, and ask for theirs in return. “Brands can have a kind of heart—a pulse,” says Melissa Sutherland Amado. “If you show that, you’ll get that love back.”

“you’re always able to reach your guest, and you’re always reachable. You don’t want people to feel unimportant.” This always-on nature makes it important to commit first to one or two services, then add others only as bandwidth permits. “I don’t believe in trying to be everything to everyone,” says Pia Mara Finkell, director of social media for the award-winning Vibrant Rioja campaign. “I’d rather do a knock-down job on fewer channels than try to be everywhere and do it poorly.” FaceKobrand created separate social book and Twitter are the best media campaigns for separate places to start, with Facebook a bit brands.

Similarly, Jameson Fink, of Seattle’s Bottlehouse wine shop and tasting bar, snapped a picture of an unusual sparkling rosé and posted it to Instagram. Within minutes, a customer replied he wanted two bottles. I leaned heavily on Twitter and Facebook when I headed consumer marketing for Bonny Doon Vineyard. Tracking let me identify all e-commerce sales resulting from posts by the winemaker, the corporate account, the restaurant account, and my own accounts on social media. All of them moved wine, sometimes by the case. Stats and success stories like these can help colleagues can get on board with the effort, which is critical in a business driven by engagement. Still, social media is primarily about conversation, not conversion. Sales directly resulting from tweets and posts are indeed possible, but they’re not the main point. The value accrues over time, with persistence, as the brand and customers get to know and trust each other. “Social media is not a tool for marketing. It is a tool for relationships,” says Shana Ray, a social strategist at Resonate Digital, which counts wine businesses among its clients. “We have made it into a tool for marketing, but at its core, it’s about relationships.” In other words, in the old days, commerce was based on recommendations by real people. Nowadays, commerce is based on recommendations by real people. The technology has changed, but story remains the same. ■ Meg Houston Maker is a wine writer and communication strategist specializing in online marketing, social commerce and web analytics.

WHAT WORKS? Like any business communication tool, social media is used variably. Different strokes for different folks. Here, some wine pros at a retailer, an association and a distributor offer input on what aspects of social media work best for them. Samantha Dugan General Manager and Buyer THE WINE COUNTRY Signal Hill/LongBeach, CA facebook.com/thewinecountry We use Facebook quite a bit. We like the immediacy, as well as the fact that multiple team members can interact directly with customers. The key for us is fairly constant usage and postings. Nothing long or drawn out. Our customers seem to like the postings we do from home, where we are actually eating and drinking. I also recommend some Facebook-only promotions, little 10% off deals or what have you. This keeps them checking to see what deals are going. We’ve also had classes go from four sign-ups to sold-out at 40 in two days thanks to Facebook. Because we are a wine store we have freedom for a little more adult humor, if you will. We get to show that we aren’t a big box store; we have a staff of smart, funny people and social media helps us convey that. The funny stuff gets the most shares, which are so valuable as each time someone shares something we end up gaining new followers. Michelle Kaufmann Assistant Communications Manager OREGON WINE BOARD @Oregon_Wine I prefer Twitter. I know that Facebook has more users, but we get more engagement on Twitter and two-way communication from our followers. On Facebook, consumers may like a post and occasionally comment. But

on Twitter people will shout out wines they are drinking or ask for help finding specific producers of specific types of wine daily. We’ve also had wineries reach out to us on Facebook and Twitter about being involved in various events. And bloggers shoot me direct messages to check facts/ stats on articles they were working on. These types of intersection are usually done behind the scenes from consumers, but it’s still an easy way to quickly track down information.

the fervor for flavor The Rainbow of Flavored Spirits Continues to Expand–on Shelves and at Bars BY JEFFERY LINDENMUTH

wasted little time populating the vodka category with a rainbow of fruit and spice expressions, giving birth to an entire category that has just kept growing. Buoyed by the success of infused vodka, flavors are closing in on being the rule rather than the exception. According to the Distilled Spirits Council of the United States, over 40% of all spirit products in the U.S. feature a flavor component (cordials included). Flavors now extend effortlessly from vodka to rum, tequila and whiskey. We’re talking about much more than plain vanilla, too. DISCUS documents more than 220 different expressions, from wasabi to watermelon and PB&J to pickle. Perhaps most important of all, the flavor revolution has proven lucrative for both new and iconic brands. Could we be upon a Golden Age of Flavor?

VODKA: THE STARTING POINT As the first flavored spirits category to take off in the U.S., and one whose neutrality lends itself to flavor extension, vodka reigns among flavor thrill seekers. It drives the diversity of flavors and the imagination of the people who love them, with options like buttered popcorn, bacon, key lime and fig. While the category is often teased by outsiders, the vodka flavor train just keeps chugging: in 2012, flavored vodka experienced a dollar sales increase of 17% over the previous year, according to Danny Brager, vice president group client director for Nielsen. This far exceeds the 3% increase of unflavored vodka sales and places a hefty 21% of total vodka sales in the flavored realm.

lavor in spirits is nothing new. When Dr. Sylvius, of the University of Leyden, used juniper berries to create the original gin in 1608 and when Carthusian monks in France added 130 herbs to distilled alcohol to make Green Chartreuse in the 1740s, they were flavoring spirits. Over the ensuing centuries flavored spirits were anchored by cordials/ liqueurs, not surprisingly, since those products are flavored by definition. Then, in 1986, Absolut Peppar debuted. At the time, this pepper-infused vodka was seen more as a Bloody Mary helper than a standalone sipper or shooter, but the seed-notion of vodka being an ideal blank canvas for flavorization was planted. Taking advantage of modern foodscience technology, creative marketers

Brager suggests the diversity of vodka flavors acts as a fertile testing ground for flavors that may come to other spirits, and is typical of a more mature and accepted flavor market—one he compares to ice cream. “In those categories where flavors have taken hold, I believe there will continue to be new extensions and established flavors moving across spirits segments,” says Brager. “I think what drives flavors is initially the single flavors, as those are usually quickest to market, but then exotics and combinations are almost always soon to follow.” Right now we’re watching as established flavors of cherry and honey begin the boom in flavored whiskey. With these on solid footing, there is certainly a potential to widen the flavors of whiskey as well. While flavored whiskey still represents only 5% of category sales, the ascent of this slice of flavor has been astounding, up 90% in value for the year ending 2012 according to Brager.

CREATING NEW FANS ON-PREMISE While many top mixologists prefer to concoct their own flavors, Rob Floyd, who helms the cutting-edge cocktail program at The Bazaar by José Andrés at SLS Hotel Beverly Hills, says commercial flavors are too big for any serious bartender to ignore. Floyd is genuinely excited about what flavored spirits portend for cocktail creators like him-

His Elevated Long Island Iced Tea includes Three Olives Cherry alongside housemade sour mix and maraschino liqueur. “The guest is not necessarily going to buy more of that drink if I make my own cherry vodka, and the same thing is true of drinks with Captain Morgan Spiced Rum. In some applications, a wellloved flavored spirit will get the drink sold,” he says.

WHAT’S THE NEXT WHIPPED? While the rise of flavor has the makings of a long-term, category-shifting trend in vodka, and possibly other spirits, on a more micro level, it comes with a catch. Steve Malloy, vice president, of Malloy’s Finest Wine & Spirits, a family-owned retailer with three stores in the Chicago area says the proliferation of flavored spirits can seem so great, he often jokes, “Does that come with shelf space?” For many smaller stores, taking on yet another flavor is a challenge. While quality is paramount for Malloy, and he makes it a point to taste every new product, he notes that the success or failure of flavors is difficult for anyone to predict. “I don’t think 10 years ago anyone could have guessed whipped cream would be a dominant vodka flavor. But with everyone add-

ing it to their arsenal, especially with the big conglomerates now jumping on board with advertising, I believe it’s a flavor that is here to stay,” he says. According to Malloy, many of the 40 flavors of Pinnacle vodka remain niche players, but Whipped is widely successful because it walks the line of innovation and mixability. “With the crowd buying entry-level vodka, you find them mixing it with Coke, keeping it simple. They are happy there is so much flavor already in the bottle,” he says. Malloy feels that flavors of honey and maple will show good staying power among the American and Canadian whiskies they complement so well. “The appeal for consumers in their twenties and thirties is: this is whiskey they can call their own. It’s not their grandfather’s whiskey,” he says.

AS THE FLAVORS CHURN That’s not to say that seemingly offthe-wall flavors aren’t worth a gamble. Malloy’s has been doing brisk sales in both Three Olives Loopy, unofficially based on Kellogg’s Fruit Loops cereal, and RumChata, based on the Mexican creamy rice refresher horchata. (Interestingly, older consumers will say RumChata reminds them of rice pudding; for

those under 40, it is reminiscent of Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal.) Sunny Patel, owner of Northwest Wine and Spirits with four locations in the Columbus, OH, area, says people are always attracted to the new and offbeat, but only time will tell whether a flavor joins the shelf indefinitely. “Whipped cream was a big thing when it came out and now is a regular item. People expect to see it. Now customers are coming in and they want Naked Jay Dill Pickle and OYO Stone Fruit Vodka. They are really popular and doing well here in Ohio,” says Patel. Patel says the newest flavor boom is neither vodka nor whiskey, but lies somewhere in between, combining the Moonshine and flavor trends. “I think it came as a huge surprise, but Old Smokey Moonshine is one of our biggest sellers overall. Flavors of apple pie, cherry and blackberry. They all sell out,” says Patel. There may be little chance of predicting the next breakout flavor, or even in which category it will occur, but as long as producers keep the quality high and the creativity coming, it appears younger consumers, and imaginative bartenders alike, are openminded enough to give any flavor its fair shot. ■

GIN GAME THE

Crafty Competition has Raised the Bar for Small and Large Gins Alike— Elevating the Profile of the Whole Category Tanqueray’s Basil Smash Cocktail

hen a handful of bartenders and journalists gathered at an old Italian restaurant on a chilly Manhattan evening last December, they taste-traveled back in time. In their glasses that night: martinis made with bottles of Tanqueray gin sealed in the 1960s. That same night, the gossip about the return of an almost forgotten line extension of the brand had spread as well.

In other words, there was a lot of buzz being built in a category that until recently had practically grown accustomed to being ignored. It would have been hard to imagine when that line extension, Tanqueray Malacca, was first launched in the late 1990s that it would become one of those rare bottles that bartenders would haunt spirits shops and auctions seeking out. Then, gin was in the midst of a losing battle to hold share as vodka continued to expand its hold on the average American drinker. Today, gin as a category still fights year to year to stem the flow of consumers to less bold-flavored spirits; in 2012, though, it managed to grow a respectable 1.5%, doing especially well (up nearly 20%) in the premium sub-category and up 2% in the high-end

premium price grouping, according to numbers released by the Distilled Spirits Council of the U.S. (DISCUS). While producers anticipate volume growth to inch along, consumers continue to flock to the higher end, making an attractive target for newcomers.

Unique as a Category: Two in one But who drinks gin, and where, is also important. According to the Technomic “Trends in Adult Beverage” survey conducted February 2013, 26% of consumers report drinking gin in mixed drinks once a month or more often in bars and restaurants, 35% of them in the 21-34 year old age bracket. “Gin is a unique category in that the spirit is an important element of classic cocktails, but continues to struggle with finding ways to engage new consumers,” says Donna Hood Crecca, senior director of Technomic’s adult beverage resource group. “Several brands are being successful with less juniper-forward flavor profiles and more contemporary positioning, which does bring attention, especially in the on-premise segment.” As David King, who as president of Anchor Distilling oversees a three gin portfolio (junipery Junipero, Dutch Genever–style Genevieve and the recently introduced London Dry–style No. 3), points out, the current U.S. gin market is split into two major segments. There is the shrinking traditional market favoring

value pricing and large formats, and a new premium gin market led by bartenders and new products. “People are challenging the boundaries of what gin can and should be,” he says. “If you just looked at the broad brush view of the gin market you’d be discouraged from introducing anything new. But a brand like Hendrick’s deserves credit for challenging what gin was about, and its growth probably is what gives one encouragement to bring a new gin into the market.” In the last few years, new gins like Hendrick’s and Citadelle grew more interesting to bartenders, and those from America’s many micro-distillers started to grab precious bar and shelf space. Brands like Bulldog, Nolet’s and Farmer’s Organic came to market with slight twists—Bulldog with the inclusion of lotus and poppyseed; Nolet’s with roses, peaches and raspberries; Farmer’s with elderflower, lemongrass and an organic hook. Even the “skinny” craze has hit the gin world—Slim Gin, made from 14 botanicals and bottled at 60 proof, claims to have 25% fewer calories than most brands, 48 calories per serving. One of the pioneers of the less juniperforward American-made gins, Aviation, made by House Spirits, recently gained Bombay Sapphire East counts lemongrass among its exotic botanicals.

placement in nearly 50 Kimpton Hotel restaurant units, know for quality dining and advanced cocktail concepts.

On-Premise Battleground As most of the brands focus on selling their wares by attracting the key driver of super-premium spirits—the American bartender—the fight is intensified. That’s because the contemporary interest in gin is almost entirely underpinned by the cocktail renaissance. Where once the biggest brands could be expected to dominate a drink menu, bartenders now seek to incorporate the many gin flavor profiles into their house recipes. Led by the example of less junipery gins, the recent explosion of small distiller brands and gin-ish botanical spirits has started to crowd the back bar. At popular cocktail-centric places like Saxon + Parole in Manhattan, upwards of 15 gins are prominently displayed and many used in the often-changing drink menu. This complicates things for the big gin makers, as the opportunity to dominate a menu with one gin is past. Not surprisingly, the giant brands (primarily Beefeater, Bombay and Tanqueray on-premise, with the addition of Seagram’s off-premise) have fought back to protect their share of the category. Bombay added Bombay Sapphire East, made with lemongrass and black pepper, and to bolster production has unveiled plans for its own distillery that should be operating by summer 2013. (The brand has long been produced at G&J Greenall in the northwest of England.)

gin game

Tanqueray in the past few years reinforced its popularity through increased attention to bartender training on behalf of its classic junipery London Dry, along with its two citrusy variants, Tanqueray No. 10 and Tanqueray Rangpur. Beefeater introduced Beefeater 24, notable for the inclusion of grapefruit and tea, and two limited-edition seasonal gins, Beefeater Summer and Winter, and spent heavily to build bartender loyalty to both Beefeater and Plymouth.

East meets West All this resuscitative innovation was sparked by the challenge coming from the so-called New Western gins. Lower in juniper and more citrusy, the gins run from semi-obscure to new powerhouses like New Amsterdam. “Both on- and off-premise there is opportunity for education of both the trade and consumers,” says Guillaume Lamy, vice president Cognac Ferrand, owner of Citadelle Gin. “What retail store would arrange a gin seminar ten years ago? None that I know of. Now, we have some retailer partners that are willing to book a 50-seat classroom and let us present history, distillation techniques and other craft distiller’s secrets to gin fans who want to know more about what is actually happening behind the still.” “I think all these gins help to promote the gin category, and by attracting new consumers within the category it a fantasitic opportunity for brands like us to at-

tract new consumers,” says Nik Fordham, newly named master distiller of Bombay Spirits Company. “I think it’s wonderful that we have these new artisanal gins which are coming from throughout the world. I do believe, though, that they help to demonstrate the consistency and quality of the more iconic brands like Bombay Sapphire.” Fordham hits on an important point concerning many of the newborn American gins: reports of bottle and batch variations are rampant, and some reveal an insufficient understanding of botanical manipulation and sourcing.

Big vs. Little Even in bars where local gins dominate, the big brands get plenty of play. In Idaho, the three Bardenay restaurants distill their own vodka, gin and rum. And even though their own gin is the biggest seller, younger customers learning about cocktails like to have the option to select from classic brands for their martinis and increasingly Negronis, says owner Kevin Settles. But as Charlotte Voisey, portfolio ambassador for William Grant & Sons, points out, “People like the idea of local and minuscule batch and craft and artisanal, but when it comes down to it, quality comes first.”

So, what do the big gins do to compete in a market where the attention of mixologists is key to any gin’s success? Mostly keep hustling, but humbly enough to appreciate that attention to the category as a whole is likely to help their readily available brands. With bartenders steering the bus, so to speak, big and small brands alike can hope to impress more passengers with gin’s versatility and flavorful distinctions from other spirits. Voisey says maintaining Hendrick’s as a bartender’s gin takes consistent focus: “Lots of effort goes into relationships that Hendrick’s built, and that’s our strength.” In the case of the recent Tanqueray Malacca re-introduction, brand owner Diageo was responding to bartenders’ interest in the extension for its similarity to an Old Tom gin, slightly sweeter than classic London dry. “In my first few years as brand ambassador, one of the commonly asked questions from bartenders was ‘When are you going to bring back Malacca?’” says Tanqueray’s Angus Winchester. But it was only when a bartender cornered someone high up in the company that master distiller Tom Nicol was asked to dig into the company’s archives and make the gin as it was originally designed. To satisfy their bartender friends, Tanqueray plans to limit the 100,000 liter supply to the on-premise. That’s not a lot for such a worldwide brand, but if it keeps the brand’s bartender friends happy, it will have done its job. ■

ON THE ECONOMY Recovery Not Complete... And May Never Be

BRAD FEUERBACHER BROWN DERBY INTERNATIONAL WINE CENTER, SPRINGFIELD, MO

It seems in our community we haven’t seen a full recovery. Maybe even the opposite, especially in the past few months.

The number of bottles is good going out the door, but that price point is way down when you look at the wine market. We’ve all talked about the $100 wines that turn into $50s and the $50s that turn into $25s. But then you look at other things. You have the brown goods that have that authenticity and history; those are strong. The consumer today wants that experience. We haven’t really seen that ability to come in at a full recovery. But at the

same time, we have generations that are willing to experiment with a much wider array of products. So there’s that opportunity that lies out there as well.

BAY RIDGE WINE & SPIRITS, ANNAPOLIS, MD

In Maryland, we’re facing a serious chain store fight for the first time in about 12 years. We’re gonna be all right this year. Next year is an election year. I think we’ll be all right. But the following year is a whole new legislature. And we’re going to have problems, because we don’t know who’s going to get elected; there’s going to be a turnover. But we have to work together. Maryland’s a little unique. One store, one license is all you’re allowed. Supermarkets, chain stores are not allowed. But the whole industry nationwide, we’re all under deregulation pressures. And believe me, the three-tier system—as many times and as many problems as it may have imposed on you—has saved every one of us. And it is good for us. Alcohol is not potato chips; it’s not tires. Alcohol was mentioned twice in the Constitution. It’s a special and unique product. It should be regulated within reason. But what we have to do is watch out for deregulation. I don’t know where y’all come from politically. I’m pretty conservative. I’m against all regulation except in this industry. Be real. You’re independent businessmen and this is what you like to do. You don’t believe in regulation, but I’ve been kept small by law, and

New Jersey is one of the regulated/deregulated states. We have two-license limitation. We have a very active ABC. For years I used to wish our ABC was as easy-going as New York’s, and now it has switched over. New York’s has gotten very active and it seems like up until recently our ABC has calmed down. I believe the two-license limitation will be attacked again and again. I’ve had a couple end-of-year meetings with wholesalers and they’re restructuring their divisions to go more chain-store oriented, and they have a much stronger lobby than we’ll ever have. So it’s my belief that they know something we don’t.

RON VAUGHN ARGONAUT WINE & LIQUOR, DENVER, CO

We face the same challenges that you do: single-licenses, grocery stores. We’ve fought it for five years since ’08 and defeated it every year. The first year it happened, retailers were not a cohesive group. We luckily saw it coming and at the last minute swept in and saved ourselves from a big defeat. But I think now we’ve gotten much stronger.

We have an association, Coloradans for Safe Sales. We focus on putting out two messages. One is safety. You can feel either way about safety, but it’s a good argument that alcohol in the hands of kids under 21—selling it and getting it out the door—is a bad trend. Every state has examples of bad things that happen when minors handle alcohol. The other one, which probably resonates more, is job loss. Politicians are terrified of getting the “job killer” label put on them. They don’t want to be the ones. The message to politicians in particular is that you’re going to kill small business. You can also affect political races. Go out and meet these people, interact with them regardless of what party as long as they’re on your team. You can affect races. We backed a dark horse in a race in Colorado Springs and he came in and beat our nemesis.

DISTRIBUTOR RELATIONS Need to be Allies, Not Just Customers

DAVID JABOUR TWIN LIQUORS FINE WINE & SPIRITS, AUSTIN, TX

I think it’s really important that distributors continue to look at retailers as their customers. All too often they forget that. We are obviously their customers. We can and should be their best friends. They get pushed by their suppliers and they need to be able to push back a bit to recognize what may ultimately be best for their business. I encourage you to have those discussions with your wholesalers, as it relates to legislative matters and business matters in general. Communication is real important in the three-tier system and wholesalers need to realize that we ultimately are their best friends. Oftentimes the beer wholesalers are under a lot of pressure, so they seem to see that a little more easily than the wine and spirits wholesalers.

WHAT’S HOT NOW Classics and Flavors Rule Spirits

DAVID JABOUR: We are seeing an exceptional amount of locally produced products. Spirits, wine and beer as well. On the spirits side, if it’s local, it sells. Even products that have very significant bases. Tito’s Vodka, for example, is our #1 scanning dollar volume item. It’s important to always take a look at what's working locally. Some new category innovation is really working. Bulleit Rye is leading the growth in the rye category for us. Crown Royal Maple was just off the charts this holiday season; that sweeter flavor profile continues to be attractive. Jack Daniel’s Honey continues to sell. So does Fireball, a Sazerac product.

Flavored moonshine continues to grow, after a strong holiday season. Base moonshine, not so much. Another brand that did well this holiday season was RumChata. And as much as I hate to say it, in the flavored vodka category there continue to be pockets. Those require a very aggressive category management with the proliferation of all the flavors and confections. You have to be careful about how broad you go.

RON VAUGHN: I think I look at new products a little differently. I welcome the innovation. Look at the brands you sell which weren’t even in existence five years ago. I used to have the attitude ‘If I hear about another flavored vodka…’. But the ones I wouldn’t have taken are the hottest ones now. You do have to do category management, but I’ll figure out a way to get it in, because my customers want to see the new products.

CHUCK FERRAR: I think David hit most of the hot items. RumChata, honey liqueurs and flavored bourbons have taken

CEDRIC MARTIN MARTIN WINE CELLAR, FOUR LOCATIONS IN LOUSIANA

WHAT'S HOT IN WINE Because the discussion of “what’s hot” leaned toward spirits, we also asked Cedric Martin of Martin Wine Cellar, who hosted the roundtable in his Metairie store, to add his perspective on the current wine scene.

To a large extent, I believe the hot wines today are the ones you create hype about. I have found that the excitement of the buyer and the sales staff is what creates excitement for the customer. We discover wine regions, invest and educate our staff, then turn around to educate and excite the customer. Our job is made a lot easier by the popularity of certain wines and regions. We have always been very successful with Bordeaux and Burgundy. Bordeaux is still a bargain, where quality petite château wines are going for under $12. We implement aggressive programs for our sales people to move through these cases. Two regions that have jumped in popularity are Italy and Spain. Good Italian restaurants are now all over New Orleans, which really helps. So today it is Vermentino, tomorrow it’s Fiano. Most importantly, Italian wines have been consistently good since the 2006 vintage, and there are many small vintners

off. During the holiday season, trade-up was definitely back in our market.

GARY FISCH: We took a big position on the bourbons—flavored, cream and straight. At first, we didn’t bring enough in to make a statement, so they weren’t selling. Once we started making a statement, they did very well.

BRAD FEUERBACHER: The craft beer segment continues to proliferate with the same issues that happen in spirits—there’s only so much shelf-space and there’s scarcity. It’s interesting looking at my cheat sheet and David’s. RumChata, moonshine, Moscatos, ciders…. What are all those? Sweet. It’s sweet we keep going back to.

KEN LEWIS: We’re spending a lot of money to improve our store and it’s all on spirits and craft beer. Are we following the consumer vs leading the consumer? There’s the challenge of space allocation, and growth areas—we have to make sure we’re focused on the right things. ■

producing outstanding wines, such as Soave from the hillside vineyards. In Spain, we have seen a comeback of the whites including Albarino and Verdejo. In reds, Reserva wines from Rioja retailing for under $30 are very popular. We have also seen Argentine wines hit stride over the past few years, especially Malbec and red blends that are very good and reasonably priced. We are selling the more expensive Malbec wines, too. California continues to maintain strength in our market in the $25-$65 range; Pinot Noir, Cabernet, Sauvignon Blanc, and, yes, Chardonnay still sells. Getting hotter: white wines from the Loire Valley and the Chablis region. Both are excellent values, but the growth in Chablis has been surprising. Spring is upon us, bringing the first wave of delicious rosés made of diverse varieties from regions all over France and from other European countries such as Spain, Portugal and Italy. Plus there are superb rosés being made in California and Oregon. Rosé is back in a very big way.

YOU CAN SOMETIMES GET WHAT YOU WANT CRYSTAL HEAD VODKA LIMITED ROLLING STONES EDITION GIFT PACK GETS WHAT YOU NEED

Dan Aykroyd

ure it may be mixing musical metaphors to reach for Carly Simon’s familiar phrases “nobody does it better” and “baby, you’re the best” when describing the almost indescribably iconic Rolling Stones, but these London lads are icons because distilling the essence of their talent into something easily recognizable and enjoyable is how they put themselves on the map. And stayed there. For 50 years. An equally iconic and enjoyable presence on bar, liquor and grocery store shelves is the hallmark of another well known (though slightly younger) brand: Crystal Head Vodka. Like the unmistakable sound of The Rolling Stones, Crystal Head stands out from the crowd. Its uniquely skull-shaped bottle holds award winning, additive free, super premium vodka that uses the highest quality grains and the deep glacial aquifer water of Newfoundland, Canada. Brand co-founder, Dan Aykroyd, is deeply proud of the recent accolades the brand has won at the 15th International Tasting Contest at the 2013 PRODEXPO Exhibition, in Moscow, Russia (Gold Medal for Excellent Taste) and at the World Spirits Competition (Double Gold Medal). The Exhibition, which took place from February 11 to 15, is the largest food exhibition in Eastern Europe and hosts the most prestigious tasting competition. There were 198 companies, representing beverages from more than 22 countries that took part in this year’s tasting contest. Crystal Head was one of the entries amongst over 400 other

vodkas that were reviewed by a panel of 11 judges recognized as the best tasters of wines and spirits in Russia. Aykroyd, states, “Crystal Head Gold Medal—best tasting vodka in Moscow contest—a significant honor. Like winning best sushi in Japan! If Russians do not know their vodka, who does?!” He continues, “Winning the Gold Medal competing against 198 companies and over 400 vodkas is very gratifying. We like to say that the beautiful and unique package draws you to the brand and the taste brings you back.” Whether returning to purchase the vodka that they love happens on or offpremise, Crystal Head Vodka drinkers are happy to spend the night together with friends, sharing their love for this super premium vodka that is quadruple distilled and filtered seven times. Three of the filtrations are through semi-precious crystals known as Herkimer diamonds. Though The Rolling Stones are just a couple of decades shy of their Diamond Anniversary year, this 50th anniversary was the perfect opportunity for Crystal

Head Vodka to join forces with The Rolling Stones to create an exclusive, limited edition Rolling Stones 50th Anniversary Gift Set. This zippered, handcrafted, one of a kind display case gently cradles a 750ml bottle of Crystal Head Vodka with crystal decanter top showcasing the Stones’ logo. Tucked into the package, which, for any real Stones fan, is easily recognized as a tribute to the Sticky Fingers album, is a double CD with live Rolling Stones tracks exclusive to Crystal Head Vodka in honor of their role as the official and exclusive vodka of the Rolling Stones 50th Anniversary. Aykroyd concludes, “It is a huge honor and recognition of our high quality product to have Crystal Head designated as the officially authorized vodka for the Rolling Stones 50th Anniversary Worldwide celebration. Together with Bravado, the band’s licensing company, we have created the ultimate gift package for Stones fans and their families.” Fans of Crystal Head Vodka and The Rolling Stones are bound to have hours of satisfaction thanks to this exclusive relationship. ■

‘All In’ for the Rothschild Family Three Branches Unite, for the First Time Ever, to Create Superlative Champagne BY W. R. TISH

uxury branding in any product category is never a simple function of pricing. And image alone cannot prevail without quality. True luxury, in wine especially, hinges both on product and pedigree. In Champagne Barons de Rothschild, the wine world now has a remarkable brand that not only epitomizes the famously high standards of the world’s greatest sparkling wine, it also manages to add a fresh chapter to one of Europe’s most renowned family legacies. It would not be quite right to characterize Champagne Barons de Rothschild as “new.” The idea was hatched, fittingly at a gathering of the family, in 2003. It debuted quietly in France, Australia, Japan and Germany in 2009; extended to 10 more markets in 2010; and reached the U.S. in tiny quantities in late 2011. But that is all part of the brand vision, which has been anything but fast and flashy—and rooted firmly in family. Indeed, the Champagne marks the first-ever collaborative wine venture for the three branches of the Rothschild tree (which dates back to 1743). Knowing that they would be layering this project on top of three distinct business entities and a collective reputation, it is no surprise that they chose to follow a patient course of development unswerving in the pursuit of top-of-the-class excellence. Why Champagne? Start with the fact that they all love it. Secondly, with its emphasis both on terroir and blending in

The three branches of the Rothschild family, all descended from Mayer Amschel Rothschild (1743-1818): Baron Éric de Rothschild (Ch. Lafite); Baronne Ariane, wife of Baron Benjamin de Rothschild, far right (Ch. Clarke, Edmond de Rothschild Group); in center, Philippe Sereys de Rothschild, and Baronne Philippine de Rothschild (Ch. Mouton).

creating wine of the highest quality, Champagne parallels Bordeaux, an established area of Rothschild expertise. Upon this foundation, the family aimed to ensure that the wine fit seamlessly into the Champagne tradition and community, and reflected the family’s motto, represented by the coat of arms on the bottles reading “Concordia—Industria—Integritas.”

Highest Standards Development of Champagne Barons de Rothschild began, quite naturally in the vineyards, and with a clear vision of house style. The family teamed with growers in Côtes des Blancs and Montagne de Reims, securing fruit exclusively from Premier Cru and Grand Cru rated vineyards. The grape sourcing coincided with the decision to make a Chardonnay-driven house style; while only 28% of the total vineyard acreage in Champagne, the family’s cuvées each contain 60% or more of Chardonnay—widely acknowledged as the varietal heart of the region’s most elegant wines. Other keys to ensuring top quality from the very start: for purity of character, an extremely low dosage—between 5 and 8 grams/liter of sugar (most houses use 10 grams or more); an unusually high percent-

age (40%) of reserve wines; and long aging in bottle—about four years, including four to nine months after disgorgement. Specially selected yeasts, small fermentation tanks (30 and 60 hl capacity as opposed to the 200-300 hl norm) and a dedicated operation just for the Verzenay red wine used in blending of the rosé also speak to the meticulous production process. While Philippe Sereys de Rothschild (son of Philippine) has assumed the role of the family’s Champagne spokesperson, to ensure that the project maximized resources and achieved their exceptional goals, the family hired two industry veterans to oversee day-to-day operations. Frédéric Mairesse, the managing director, previously worked at Domaines Paul Jaboulet Aîné in the Rhône, at Ch. La Lagune in Bordeaux and for a dozen years at leading Champagne houses. JeanPhilippe Moulin, chief winemaker, was previously the cellar master at Perrier-Jouët, Mumm and Ruinart. Among the recent tasks undertaken by Mairesse is the establishment of the brand’s headquarters in Reims (which, fittingly, has been furnished with items contributed by each family branch) and a guest house by the production facility in Montagne de Reims. His greatest challenge ahead will be to guide the trickle of bottles to a global market, and gauging the optimum retail, restaurant and resort outlets. Here in the U.S., distribution is being handled exclusively by Pasternak Wine Imports. ■

Where Country Meets the Caribbean Country Music Powerhouse Kenny Chesney Launches Blue Chair Bay Rum BY KRISTEN BIELER

he list of spirits brands with celebrity endorsements is a long one. And there’s no shortage of famous names who part-own or invest in brands. What makes Blue Chair Bay Rum unique is that it is entirely conceived and created by one Kenny Chesney, eight-time Entertainer of the Year and one of the biggest names in country music today. “Whenever Kenny isn’t working or touring, he is on a beach somewhere,” says Mark Montgomery, CEO of Blue Chair Bay Rum, Chesney’s newly created spirits brand. “Kenny first had the idea for creating a rum in 2001, with the intention of ‘bottling the lifestyle of the islands,’ the part of the world where Kenny feels most at home. Blue Chair Bay Rum is his creative vision,” says Montgomery. “Kenny has been a rum drinker for a long time and wanted to create a rum that he would enjoy drinking himself, and sharing with friends.” Having long been inspired by the Caribbean and his ongoing experiences of island-life, Chesney expresses his love of beach, sand and boating in much of his music (“When the Sun Goes Down,” “No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problems,” “Old Blue Chair”). He says that the rum was “born on the beach” in the Caribbean, and after interviewing a number of distilleries (with the help of New York-based Savvy Drinks, which is lending their expertise to the project), settled on a Barbados-based distillery, one of the oldest in the Caribbean and where rum casks are mellowed on the shore. Master Distiller Mike Booth worked closely with Chesney to develop the exact taste profiles he was looking for.

The collaboration (to say Chesney was involved is an understatement, says Montgomery) resulted in three expressions: Blue Chair Bay Rum White, Coconut and Coconut Spiced. White is a crystal clear 80-proof rum with aromas of vanilla, tropical fruits and a hint of oak. Coconut (Chesney’s personal favorite) and Coconut Spiced are both bottled at 53 proof, with subtle notes of ripe coconut and in the latter, traditional Caribbean spices. They boast a higher alcohol content than most flavored rums, and are “delicious poured straight on ice,” says Montgomery. All three will retail at approximately $17.99$18.99. “Kenny wants everyone invited to this party, so he’s created a premium line of rums, that are accessible to everyone,” Montgomery says.

Bottling the Island Experience Just how to package Chesney’s vision and island lifestyle was one of the most challenging aspects of the project, says Montgomery: “We were on Kenny’s boat one day talking about how to bottle up the beach, the air, the water, the lifestyle, and put it into physical form. And then we had the idea to create a bottle that looks like it just washed up on shore; beautiful, but a little distressed.” Kenny Chesney

While Chesney’s fan base is immense, Blue Chair Bay Rum will speak to a far wider audience. “If you are a fan, you will recognize the Kenny Chesney lyric on the front of the bottle, and see his signature on the back. For a rum drinker who doesn’t know who he is, the package is still appealing,” says Montgomery. “It would be a disservice to make Blue Chair Bay Rum too much about Kenny. Our focus is building a great brand, period.”

Rallying the Fan Base Blue Chair Bay Rum will be co-sponsoring Chesney’s No Shoes Nation Tour (with Corona Light) and will host pre-concert tailgates and parties in 18 markets this spring and summer. Together with Chesney’s new album, Life on a Rock (April 30th), the No Shoes Nation Tour will reach over 1.25 million fans in stadiums, arenas and outdoor amphitheaters with more than 42 stops across America. “Very few artists put on tours of this size and reach this many people,” says Montgomery. “He is a force on the road.” Blue Chair Bay Rum also enlisted master mixologist Jonathan Pogash to create signature Blue Chair Bay Rum cocktails, including the Shooting Star, which began as a song reference in Chesney’s new single “Pirate Flag.” As with everything Blue Chair Bay Rum, the art came first. “He wrote the song and Jonathan developed a drink around it,” says Montgomery. “Kenny is one of the hardest-working people I’ve ever met, and his commitment to his art—music and now his rum—drives everything.” ■

Little Bit of Honey Dewar’s Unveils its Much-Anticipated Highlander Honey BY KRISTEN BIELER

ewar’s drinkers are accustomed to a range of expressions—from the iconic Dewar’s White Label (the #1 selling premium blended Scotch in the United States) to the 12Year Old, 18-Year Old and Signature—but now they have a new one to choose from: Dewar’s Highlander Honey, rolling out this spring. “Dewar’s Highlander Honey brings delectable sweetness with a pleasing bite,” says Stephanie Macleod, Dewar’s Master Blender, and it’s the first offering in the new Dewar’s Highlander range of expressions infused with natural flavors and local Scottish ingredients. “We’re thrilled to showcase how the infusion of local Scottish Scottish honey builds on the already present honey notes found in the base blend of Dewar’s White Label” she notes.

A Pioneer of Innovation Dewar’s might be one of the world’s most historic whisky brands, founded in 1846 by John Dewar, but it has never been bound by tradition. “Highlander Honey is grounded in Dewar’s commitment to driving new possibilities within the spirits industry,” explains Macleod. “Dewar’s was one of the first distilleries to double-barrel age, also known as marrying, its Scotch whisky blends.” Originated by Dewar’s Master Blender in 1899, this process involves placing newly created blends back into vintage oak casks for a second period of maturation, which results in a smoother taste profile and greater depth of character.

Not Just Another Flavor Highlander Honey is made by an infusion of Scottish honey into the Dewar’s White Label. “By us-

ing Dewar’s White Label as the core for Highlander Honey, the infusion process builds on the already present honey aromas found in the blend and creates an exceptionally well-rounded and harmonious taste profile,” says Macleod. The result is a spirit that showcases pure honeyed notes, “but still retains the treasured characteristics of the original blend, which is renowned for its complex taste profile and its unparalleled smoothness,” says Macleod. Another interesting point of difference is the ABV: By infusing honey directly into Dewar’s White Label, then filtering this through oak cask wood chips, Highlander Honey maintains the desired 40% ABV.

Local Flavor “Knowing that the composition and taste of honey is terroir-driven, we sourced local bees,” says Macleod. “Using Scottish honey gives Highlander Honey a smoother, buttery composition that is unique to Scotland—and since the honey is harvested exclusively for our distillery, the taste is unique to Dewar’s as well.” (The honey is actually harvested by a stillman at the distillery, who practices beekeeping as a hobby.) DEWAR’S HIGHLANDER HONEY & COLA

Target: ‘The Drinking Man’

While many flavored whiskies aim to attract a new consumer—typically non-whisky drinkers and women—Dewar’s Highlander Honey was developed with the core Dewar’s consumer in mind: “The Drinking Man,” a term Dewar’s coined for their 2012 campaign to categorize the 25-29-year-old modern man who is

3 part cola, 1 part Dewar’s Highlander Honey

ready to step up to brown spirits. In 2012, Dewar’s launched a new advertising campaign called “The Drinking Man’s Scotch,” which uses an alluring and mysterious Scottish woman to deliver advice on living life and on drinking Scotch.

To Mix, or Not to Mix? Given her choice, Macleod sips Highlander Honey on the rocks—“it really opens up the fantastic Scottish honey notes of the blend”—but she also recommends it chilled on its own or as a shot, as well as in cocktails. “I’ve been enjoying it with cola, which is an extremely refreshing and balanced drink, with the perfect amount of honey sweetness and just the right touch of bite on the finish,” she says. Highlander Honey is just the first in Dewar’s new range of Highlander products that will include unique expressions of Dewar’s White Label whisky infused with traditional and indigenous Scottish ingredients. “Consumers are turning to brown spirits for their fullness of flavor and the rich taste they deliver,” Macleod shares. The Highlander range will provide them with new tastes as well as the quality assurance of the Dewar’s name. Dewar’s Highlander Honey will be available nationwide in April with a suggested retail price of $23.99 per 750ml bottle. ■

BAR TALK

Stay the Night Jeff Josenhans, the US Grant Hotel, San Diego BY ALIA AKKAM

ince arriving at San Diego’s famed US Grant Hotel four years ago, Jeff Josenhans, director of venues for the property, has rejuvenated the Grant Grill’s beverage program. The beer list is flooded with local micro-brews; half-bottles of wine from small producers are plentiful; and one of the star libations is a Centennial Manhattan, barrel-aged in oak for 100 days. Still, this talented sommelier and bartender is best known for his pioneering “Cocktails Sur Lie”, which embrace the Champagne method. Here, Josenhans reveals his flair for the bold at the hotel bar.

THE BEVERAGE NETWORK: The US Grant is a historic, luxurious property. But the meaning of luxury is shifting. How does that translate to your bar program and the type of customers who come in? JEFF JOSENHANS: I think luxury means to exceed one’s expectations, and it is the expectations that are shifting. Our bar program aims to offer menu concepts and ideas that you simply can’t find anywhere else in terms of innovation, service and quality. TBN: One of those concepts is Cocktails Sur Lie (Sur lie is a French term that means having been rested on its yeast. Josenhans’s Cocktails Sur Lie are bottleconditioned; added yeast, sugar and spirits create carbonation in accordance with the Champagne method, while the hopping process adds the brewer’s flair.) What was the inspiration? JJ: From a combination of wanting to push the envelope in a competitive market, needing to utilize my other skills (sommelier, working on a corporate level) and wanting to build upon the progression of cocktail programs put in place

previously. We currently serve the Moscow Mule-inspired Mule (vodka, ginger, Muscat, Cascade hops) and La Granade (Cognac, hibiscus tea, pomegranate juice, bay leaves, black pepper.) TBN: What are some of the new concepts you have planned for the lounge? JJ: The next challenge is taking on the Cosmopolitan. This worn-out classic is due for a revamp. We are also moving on to a raw cocktail menu concept where we use one whole fruit, like a Granny Smith apple, fresh-squeezed per cocktail. TBN: You worked hand in hand with the chef to develop a rooftop garden. What are you growing up there that find its way into cocktails? JJ: We plant all of our cocktail ingredients from seed and only use heirloom varieties. Right now we are growing Atomic Red carrots, Paquito squash, mini sunflowers, Chioggia Guardsmark beets, lavender, Buddha’s Hand citron, kumquats, Meyer lemons, chocolate mint and lemon verbena. I like to be seasonal in all aspects when it comes to cocktails. Many

people will think along the lines of produce seasons, but I also like to incorporate culturally seasonal spices. Nutmeg, for example, is great around Thanksgiving and Christmas even though it can be purchased of equal quality year-round. TBN: What trends are you noticing among your guests? JJ: One is that they are no longer gravitating towards brand comfort, but are more interested in exploring new spirit (and beverage) brands. I think the speakeasydriven cocktail scene has been around for over a decade now and guests are primed for new cocktail experiences. We typically dabble very little in vintage cocktails and try to have a modern approach with an equally stringent devotion to quality. TBN: What do you deem the biggest challenge of working at a hotel bar? JJ: The most obvious one is probably the hardest challenge: that you have guests in the hotel bar because they are hotel guests, and therefore their primary interest is the overall hotel stay. So the quality of the bed and the food they ate for breakfast all affect their evaluation of their bar experience. In many cases the bar experience is just playing a supporting role of the entire hotel experience. Beyond that, hotel bars operate with a much leaner staff than most private bars, so managing a sound budget is an elevated skill to have at a hotel. ■
