Saltwater Woody
 |
Alcoholic Beverages |
Saltwater Woody was founded by three friends who wanted to create a brand that encapsulated everything they loved: summer, fun, sunshine, and the beach. They developed a flavored rum that is American-made and blended with real fruit juices, using saltwater in the distilling process to enhance the flavors. Their journey began with a humorous backstory about rum smugglers, but the real story is about their passion for rum and their love for America. They aim to bring sunshine and happiness to the world through their unique rum. |

Tilden Cocktails
 |
Non-Alcoholic Beverages |
Meet Mariah and Vanessa, the founders of Tilden. Vanessa quit drinking alcohol in 2020 and was disappointed by the lack of sophisticated non-alcoholic drink options at bars, restaurants, and dinner parties. She wanted something flavorful, low in sugar, and devoid of mind-altering ingredients. Vanessa voiced her frustrations and pitched her vision to classmates at Harvard Business School and found a kindred spirit in Mariah, a lifelong teetotaler from Las Vegas. Together they set out to create non-alcoholic social beverages that would change the way society thinks about celebrating. Prototypes, concocted by hand in Mariah’s kitchen, were tasted, tested, sold, and refined until the team perfected the elements of a true social beverage - something to be sipped, swirled, and savored. With careful attention to aroma, mouthfeel, and flavors, each of Tilden's non-alcoholic cocktails delivers a flavorful experience with a beginning, middle, and finish. Vanessa and Mariah are passionate about fostering deeper, more authentic social moments. Cheers to that! |
