We loved seeing MOTH appear in the Waitrose & Partners Food & Drink Report 2023-24. It's interesting to read that 40% of Waitrose shoppers have brought their own cocktail (BYOC) to social events for the first time in the last 6 months. Many choosing canned cocktails over a bottle of wine. Rum and tequila-based canned cocktails have seen a huge 84% growth, with our Margarita leading the way. The report is well worth a read for any foodies. Have you BYOC-ed MOTH yet? https://lnkd.in/dV-b_dq2

About time I shared some more CGA data for the on trade, as we start the run in to what will hopefully be a fantastic Christmas trading period, although we’re off to a shaky start given the train cancellations planned for the festive period. So a quick category review; beer remains the biggest winner with wine gaining share from cider. Premium vodka continues to grow at the expense of standard vodka and rum is the top performer. Stout sees gains across key metrics. So to summarise, beer is now 50.3% of the market, cider is 8%, spirits make up 28.5% leaving wine and champagnes with 12.5% In terms of premise, pubs are the biggest winners with food pubs gaining most share, other food led segments alongside late night channels, casual dining and restaurants lose out. #LWCdrinks #ontrade #hospitality #pubs #bars #restaurants

What happens when we dine out and get sloppy drinks because thats how every dinner starts? When it comes to spirits its safe but no one starts a dinner with a Whiskey. Yes, a beer or wine is certain. In that, more, wine. The food order often will be based on how the first experience of beverage came about. If it was great, the desire increased to look at top bracket menu and even order more courses. When the drinks are sloppy, its downhill from there and all you want to do is close the evening. So when someone says we focus on food and not on bar (well unless its a vegetarian or food only restaurant), its not a good idea. Your bar must be better than the food. If the food has to be enjoyed and elevated. A bad glass of wine will end the evening and halve the food bill. Or Double the food bill as the case may be. - Two bit of facts.
