Arctic Blue Beverages is expanding its range of oat-based products with Hang Oat Vanilla, its first oat-based ready-to-drink product based on the multi-award-winning Arctic Blue Gin. Packaged in conveniently sized Tetra Pak cartons, the oat-based mild alcoholic beverage is made with pure Finnish water and it boasts 4.5% ABV. The 100% vegan beverage carton is decorated with splashy, youthful and dreamy graphics that express the free-spirited and carefree nature of the standout oat-based product.
Valtteri Eroma, CEO of Arctic Blue Beverages, says "[Hang Oat Vanilla] is aimed especially at younger, conscious people, for whom sustainability is important." Additionally, the product responds to the demand for dairy-free oat products, which are taking up more shelf space than their traditional dairy counterparts.
