While there are many commonly used botanicals that can be found in spirits, Feragaia is bringing innovation to an [age-old distilling process](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oola-distillery) with unique ingredients. The amber-colored, [alcohol-fee spirit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sylva-orchard) is prepared with seaweed, bay leaf, chamomile and other botanicals, plus Scottish water. In terms of taste, Feragaia is described as having a “taste of clean complexity” and a “warming finish” that's best enjoyed on the rocks or with light tonic water. Beyond having a name that means "wild earth," Feragaia is committed to keeping the earth wild by sourcing local ingredients where possible, composting its botanicals after the distillation process and selling its product with 100% recyclable bottles and caps. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.0/10 - Popularity: 21% | Activity: 30% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Zero-abv Spirits:** Alcohol-free and low-alcohol spirits that replicate the taste of traditional spirits using unique ingredients offer a disruptive innovation opportunity for the spirits industry. - **Botanical-based Drinks:** Increasing consumer demand for natural and plant-based ingredients presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for the beverage industry to create new botanical-based products. - **Sustainable Packaging:** As consumer interest in eco-friendly products increases, sustainable packaging solutions offer a disruptive innovation opportunity for the packaging industry to create new and unique packaging solutions. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Spirit Industry:** The spirit industry can explore the potential for zero-ABV and low-alcohol spirits made with unique botanical ingredients to attract health-conscious and environmentally aware consumers. - **Beverage Industry:** The beverage industry can incorporate botanical-based drinks that offer unique and natural flavors to meet the demand of consumers seeking healthier and more natural options. - **Packaging Industry:** The packaging industry can develop sustainable packaging solutions to meet the growing demand of eco-conscious consumers and differentiate themselves in a crowded market. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Versatile Alcohol-Free Gin Spirits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tarquins-cornish-dry-nonalcoholic-spirit.md) - [Ethanol-Free Botanical Distillates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kerry.md) - [Zero-Proof Botanical Spirits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/junipre.md) - [Zero-Proof Botanical Spirits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/abstinence-spirits.md) - [Non-Alcoholic Gin Alternatives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/citadelle-00.md) - [Alcohol-Free Botanical Spirits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bittersweet-aperitivo.md) - [Alcohol-Free Gin Alternatives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/york-zero.md) - [Coastal-Inspired Alcohol-Free Spirits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pentire-coastal-spritz.md) - [Botanically Brewed Canned Cocktails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zero-proof-cocktails.md)
