What is the Organic Liquor trend?

Organic Liquor: Organic ingredients in the alcohol space have become popular in wines and pre-made cocktails and seltzers, and they're now being adapted into liquors. In this oversaturated space, emerging brands are able to stand out with promises of healthier or better-sourced liquors.

Insight

The consumer insight behind the Organic Liquor trend

With Millennials and Gen Z both drinking less, the alcohol industry is having to evolve with these demographics in order to maintain their longevity. Younger consumers of drinking age are more likely to turn to alternatives that are healthier and "lighter" in flavor. These consumers turn to alcohol brands that balance their desire for social drinking, without some of its negative consequences.
