# Non-Alcoholic Aperitivo Rebrands Wilderton Aperitivo Co. Sets a Bold Standard for the Industry By Kalin Ned | Published 2024-12-09 | Marketing Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wilderton-aperitivo References: [bevnet](https://www.bevnet.com/pr/2024/12/05/wilderton-aperitivo-co-sets-the-nonalc-aperitivo-standard-with-bold-rebrand)  Wilderton Aperitivo Co.'s transition from a non-alcoholic distillery to a dedicated aperitivo brand reflects a strategic move to capitalize on the rising popularity of spritz culture in the US. This rebrand positions Wilderton Aperitivo Co. as a leader in the non-alcoholic beverage market, offering alternatives that emphasize bold botanical flavors and social drinking experiences. The introduction of the Citrus Aperitivo alongside the established Bittersweet Aperitivo expands the brand's portfolio. The products are crafted from botanicals sourced worldwide and aim to replicate the depth of traditional aperitivo cocktails without the alcohol. This makes them a standout for those embracing mindful drinking while still wanting sophisticated, layered flavors. Wilderton Aperitivo Co.'s roots in the Pacific Northwest and its innovative distillation techniques further enhance its appeal to a market increasingly interested in sustainability and artisanal craftsmanship.
