What is the brand vision for Alc-A-Chino?
Our vision is to be the leading spiked “Coffee Shop” inspired brand available nationally and in select international markets.
What does “Coffee Shop” inspired mean?
We take proven product trends from your favorite coffee shop that consumers purchase many millions of times each day and spike them! We are not guessing at what consumers will like, they are already voting with their wallets. We are expanding the coffee day-part by offering them spiked! Honestly, we are the only brand currently offering a portfolio of “Coffee Shop” inspired spiked products, and as we say, our product innovation was hidden in plain sight!
What products are in your “Coffee Shop” inspired portfolio?
We have a 13.5% hard coffee cocktail (think of your favorite espresso martini, without the effort of making it), a 6% ABV non-dairy Hard Oat Milk Latte that is session-able and delicious, and a new line of 5% ABV Hard Refreshers made with a blend of real juice, cane sugar, natural flavors & colors and a bit of green coffee extract that taste like those from your favorite Coffee Shop, but with a kick!
What does Alc-a-Chino mean?
To start this journey, we wanted a name for our products that speaks to coffee and alcohol. So, think of it this way, millions of Americans enjoy cappuccinos each day. Our product delivers on similar attributes of that beloved drink, except we added the “Alc” in front of the name to highlight what’s in store for you. Now, our journey has expanded and Alc-A-Chino is delivering this experience across a range of your favorite coffee shop beverages, but spiked!
