🇮🇹ITALY and SPAIN🇪🇸 🆙 next ? 🍷 I've spent ten days submerging myself in the Mediterranean. Much needed. But I also had the chance to head up the mountains, to visit Turin and our importers Alesso and Tommasio -> amoreliquido "Every restaurant and bar who've tried has put Gnista on the menu", the told me. Well, that's a flying start! And Spain seems to be no worse. Kimber Lockhart, head of Sense in Barcelona is doing a fab job spreading the word 👏👏 Yes, it does help when publications like La Vanguardia recommend your drinks 😊 🙏 -> https://shorturl.at/36FEL Also, thank you Barcelona Food Experience for the photo 😃 #alcoholfree #nonalcoholic #foodandbev

"The Italian has turned out crushingly good. With its sultry bitters and rich but clean character, I think for red wine lovers it is the best alternative now on the market." Erika, the Swedish elk 😂 (portrayed in the Dutch newspaper Het Parool ) bows her head for the fantastic review. Thank you Esmee❣ Want to put on the menu?

🍷 🥃 🥂 Hallå Malmö and Folkets Park! 🌞 A rare opportunity to see me in my very own hoods this weekend. This Fri-Sun, Skånes Dryckesproducenter have put together great drinks, nice foods and lots of sunshine! Emelie Wilander and I will serve Gnistas and the 👌👌 fermented EVE rebellion - sipping without concerns! 🌞

🥇 Jeroen, 🥇Ichelle, 🥇Arvid and 🥇Denise - do you know how valuable you are to us?! The staff in the World of Nix - De Alcoholvrije Slijterij van Nederland -> Everyday they meet new people - some familiar to non-alco and some not - and listen. And serve (every drink on the shelves are offered as tasters) then explain. And listen again. These people are the gate openers and the interpreters. Having spent a couple days with them in Amsterdam, I’ve gained another sea of insights. Thank you for taking such good care of my brand and range 👏 And thank you Wim Boekema and Frederike de Groot for creating such welcoming spaces 💛 #alcoholfree #nonalcoholic #startup

🇩🇰 DENMARK, we're back. And it feels SO good!! 🍷 🥃 The Foodexpo 2024 is over, and I'm filled with bubbles over the fantastic feedback our not-wines and spirits have had. Thank you Kjær & Sommerfeldt for organising the mindful space! Back in 2019, Copenhagen was our launch pad, when the best bars put our first spirit on their menus. 2024 we're back, thanks to Carsten B Jorgensen - my partner in Danish crime and father of the excellent Far & Søn Brewery. Thanks Carsten for pushing for Gnista! --> --> The full Gnista range can be ordered from Kjær & Sommerfeldt. And is stocked at selected MENY Danmark, Magasin du Nord and other shops that like taste, body and complexity 😜 Plus a bunch of restaurants and bars. Keep a look out <--<-- #drinkinnovation #alcoholfree #startuplife
