ASCC Seeks Unique Approach in Billion-Dollar Flavored Vodka Market

Business Wire
In the past few years, an abundance of flavored vodkas have hit
the market, from cotton candy to licorice and even bubble gum. In
order to make a splash in the billion-dollar global flavored vodka
market, though, the Aristocrat Group Corp. (OTCBB: ASCC) is
targeting spirits tailored to the needs of mixologists, not
drinkers.
“Most of the new vodka flavors you’ll find at the bar or liquor
store are either sickeningly sweet or just plain gimmicky,” said
ASCC CEO Robert Federowicz. “They’re meant to capitalize on a
trend, not survive in a competitive marketplace. Our approach to
flavored vodka will be different.”
With some analysts predicting that the flavored vodka segment
will grow to $1.88 billion by 2016, ASCC sees tastefully flavored
vodkas as a crucial element of its distilled spirits initiative.
For the next in a line of vodka brands to be marketed by the
company’s brand management division, Luxuria Brands, ASCC plans to
concoct new flavored spirits intended for use behind the bar.
By infusing vodkas with the flavors of natural produce such as
ginger, clove, orange peel, cocoa and more, the company plans to
help mixologists create layered, flavorful cocktails that rely on
fewer ingredients—and zero syrups and sugars.
“We’re exploring smokey, bitter and spicy notes to add to
vodkas, not just sweeteners,” Federowicz said. “We want to put
another tool into bartenders’ arsenal as they craft their next
great cocktail, not just another flavor of the month that will be
forgotten a year from now.”
Luxuria Brands is currently readying two separate vodka brands
for hungry marketplace seen as key to successfully competing in a
highly profitable sector alongside LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton
SA (EPA: MC), Diageo PLC (NYSE: DEO), BEAM Inc. (NYSE: BEAM) and
Brown-Forman Corp. (NYSE: BF-B).
