🌟 Beyoncé Enters the Spirits World with SirDavis Whisky! 🥃 After entering the Country stage - the US superstar is expanding her empire yet again. This time with in the spirits industry. Beyoncé Knowles-Carter has teamed up with Moët Hennessy to create SirDavis Whisky, a unique American whisky with deep roots in her family history. Named after her great-grandfather, a "moonshine man" during Prohibition, SirDavis is a tribute to both heritage and innovation. 🎤The Beyoncé Touch: Beyoncé's meticulous approach is evident throughout SirDavis, from its uncommon mash bill—51% rye and 49% malted barley — to its sophisticated aging process in American oak and Pedro Ximénez sherry casks. The result? A whisky that's apparently soft, nuanced and perfectly balanced. 🏆Already a Winner: Before even hitting shelves, SirDavis has already made waves, winning four prestigious awards, including Platinum at the 2023 SIP Awards and a 93-point rating from the Ultimate Spirits Challenge. One more example for the significance of valuable cooperations in the highly competitive market of spirits, where consumers are constantly seeking for distinct experiences. ⭐️ #AnugaDrinks #SpiritsInnovation #WeAreAnuga #Anuga2025 Source: LVMH Press

Today, I was inspired by vitalie taittinger, President of Champagne Taittinger, a renowned Maison and an international champagne brand. In an interview, she was asked about the challenges posed by competition—both from non-champagne sparkling wines and smaller, craft-style champagne producers. Her response was brilliant and thought-provoking: "Competition is good for the business. It expands the category and pushes big brands to create new spaces for growth." Looking deeper, I discovered how Taittinger has proactively "created new spaces" by expanding its operations into England—a bold and pioneering move among Champagne houses. The company established Domaine Evremond in Kent, planting traditional Champagne grape varieties on the region's chalky soils, which closely resemble those in Champagne. This strategic venture is set to produce high-quality English sparkling wine, with the first release anticipated in early 2025. This perspective aligns perfectly with the SPICE UP philosophy. It’s a powerful reminder that, instead of fearing competition, we should embrace it as an opportunity to: ✅ Broaden Market Awareness: When more players enter the category, they educate consumers and increase demand for everyone. ✅ Drive Innovation: Competition challenges us to rethink strategies, refine offerings, and stay ahead in the market. ✅ Find New Opportunities: Creating “new spaces” means identifying niches, redefining experiences, and building stronger connections with our audiences. What are your thoughts on competition as a driver for innovation and category expansion? I’d love to hear your perspective! #Leadership #Strategy #Innovation #Champagne #Taittinger #SpiceUpModel #ProfBaeyens

Champagne retains its crown. When it comes to glitz and glamour, few things represent celebration quite like Champagne. As we head into the Christmas rally, the top cuvées might well have come down in price recently, but certainly not in quality, which means there are some comparative bargains to be had even among the crème de la crème. This year's most expensive Champagnes are – unsurprisingly – dominated by the big names with their various prestige cuvées: Dom Perignon heads the list, followed by Krug, James Bond’s favourite Bollinger, Louis Roederer Cristal, and Jacques Selosse. Salon, Taittinger and Perrier Jouet also feature regularly for us. Although belts have undoubtedly tightened, it's fair to say that savvy investors looking for opportunities for growth will benefit from the current market conditions and, much like the British monarchy, it will take a great deal more to knock Champagne's crown. Champagne as a region is our best performing market and the ideal starting point for most investors. To find out more please get in touch.

Moët Hennessy’s investment in French Bloom really highlights the growing trend and demand for non-alcoholic options, now with a little luxury 🥂 As we continue to see consumers prioritizing wellness and mindful drinking, the F&D sector is also evolving to keep up with demand. Exciting developments indeed, and a massive vote of confidence for no-to-low abv products. Curious to see which companies will follow suit 👀 #FoodAndDrink #AlcoholFree #DrinksIndustry

Diversification and agility within any category is importance. A strategy that’s longer and broader than a 1-3 year rolling brand plan is critical. Slowly, but surely the move by beverage giants, to bring 0.0% premium and super premium brands that taste great, is growing at pace. New generations, trends and consumer insight tell us “We want the brand call but without the alcohol”
