What does rare whisky have in common with the S&P? They both have appreciated over the last 10 years, with whisky coming out on top. This article dives deeper into the luxury good market. It's an interesting read! https://lnkd.in/euKfj47X

While luxury conglomerates continue to acquire their way into the premium agave spirits market, our approach remains rooted in authenticity. Building a brand from the ground up—working directly with Mexican artisanal producers and honoring centuries of tradition—creates something that can't be bought. It's the difference between genuine integration and simple acquisition. The data is clear: today's tequila enthusiasts value heritage and credibility over luxury logos. As we continue building our portfolio of artisanal agave spirits, we're proving that sustainable growth comes from respecting the culture, not just opening a checkbook. #AgaveSpirits #Tequila #AuthenticityMatters #MexicanHeritage #PremiumSpirits"

Whisky Live Paris Our latest blog, Mark and Andy Gray discuss their observations from Whisky Live Paris. With hundreds of whisky, rum, gin, tequila and sake on display, stand-out is everything. Brands need to be super clear who they are, and what they stand for before they think about turning up at these events. In a room full of competitors, familiar clichés just don’t cut it.   - Luxury never takes a day off Some luxury brands struggled to hit the level of quality we’ve come to expect of them. Premium brands are expected to be premium everywhere they go. - Bring your brand to life The stands that bowled us away had considered the brand and the visitor experience. They’d created interactive spaces full of opportunities to surprise and delight, and to ‘land’ their brand idea and personality. Those that fell short had relegated their stands to glorified billboards.  - Sometimes less is less A simple idea with excellent execution is amazing. There were too many misplaced efforts at simplicity on display. If you’re going to do simple in a premium category – you must make sure it doesn’t look cheap.

Champagne isn't just a drink – it’s an experience, an emotion, a celebration. And in the corporate world, it’s an opportunity to elevate an event, to mark something as special and exclusive. As companies look for ways to set themselves apart, I often suggest going beyond the usual offerings. A tailored champagne masterclass or tasting experience can turn a standard gathering into something clients talk about long after it’s over. If you’re thinking about ways to show appreciation or to create something uniquely memorable for your clients, reach out. Let’s talk about the perfect way to blend tradition with luxury to leave an impact. #CorporateEvents #ClientEngagement #ChampagneExperience #LuxuryEvents #CX

“The first type of follow-up is conducted to absorb the customer. However, after working together and holding the event, you still need to follow up and stay in touch with your customers through various methods. Don’t let the customer forget you. Look for ways to cause customers to always refer to you for future events.” Master Steve #eventorganizer #birthday #eventmanagement #festival #events #live #eventplanning #catering #food #wedding #entertainment #masterstevemind#music #vanue #weddingplanner #fashion #decoration #eventdesign #eventplanner #event

Product vs Experience Luxury is never just about what we see. It’s about what we feel. Wine isn’t simply a beverage; it’s a story shared over laughter and good company. A watch isn’t there to tell the time; it marks the moments that define us. And the difference between a service and an experience? That’s what we, as luxury providers, offer: not just what you need, but what you’ll never forget. #LuxuryLifestyle #Exclusivity #DiscerningTaste

Johnnie Walker is the 5th-Biggest Brand in the UK. Out of everything. ALL Brands. Most people have no idea, it doesn't HAVE a Distillery, it's a 'Blended Whisky' from LOTS of them! The average person in SCOTLAND, let alone the UK doesn't have the first idea. Is it any wonder the average Tourist is clueless? When are we getting a Scotch Whisky Tourism Strategy, to help with this education process and help us #sellmorescotch? #ScotchWhiskyTruths
