20 Alcohol E-Commerce Innovations

From Mail-Order Mixology Kits to Wine Delivery Services

— June 19, 2017 — Lifestyle
These examples of alcohol e-commerce range from personalized wine pairing subscriptions to spirit tasting boxes that are an ideal gift for budding mixologists. In addition to monthly subscription services that allow consumers to taste a variety of portable products before investing in a full-sized version, other standouts include virtual brand activations, and campaigns that are transforming the public's perception of heritage liquor brands.

A memorable example is 'Glenfiddich Virtual Infinity,' a virtual whiskey tasting session that takes consumers on a VR-powered tour of the famous Scottish distillery. Additionally, examples like Mashbox offer a curated subscription of rare sprits, appealing to drinkers seeking to taste limited edition, and hard-to-find beverages.

Branded cocktail recipe chatbots, and curated Father's day gift boxes round off this alcohol e-commerce list. The examples speak to consumers' growing desire for high quality alcohol products, that are simultaneously more accessible and budget-friendly than in-store offerings.
