Irish Whiskeys

The Knappogue Castle Whiskey Gift Pack reflects the heritage of this sophisticated brand. The gift box, in rich wood tones, is meant to reflect opening the door to the Castle. Once inside (the back of the box) you are in the Drawing Room of Knappogue Castle itself, which contains a portrait of Mark Edwin Andrews, the brand's founder. Whiskey connoisseurs know that adding a wee bit of water to whiskey will open up its nose and flavor, so with the gift pack comes a ceramic water pitcher emblazoned with the Knappogue Castle Whiskey logo, bearing a sketch of Knappogue Castle.

With the Clontarf Gift Pack (left), customers receive an elegant and upscale glass water carafe bearing a frosted Clontarf logo on the front.

Daily's Mixers

Daily's, America's premium brand of fruit mixers and ready-to-drink cocktails, announces a holiday program aimed at capturing the spirit and profits of America's fascination with the cocktail during the years most festive season.

Daily's "The Perfect Taste to Toast" promotion is fully loaded with all of the materials retailers will need to stop traffic and increase sales during the critical October - December selling period. At retail, Daily's is providing colorful and appetite- appealing POS materials that support Daily's full line of products and allow for cross merchandising displays with popular spirit brands and other holiday-related items. Case cards and shelf talkers target impulse shoppers looking to purchase big for their holiday entertaining needs.

Foster’s

Foster’s is encouraging retailers to take the Australian approach to the Winter Season this year and watch sales go north for the winter – not south! According to Foster’s, the winter season is the ideal time for customers to enjoy more social gatherings and intimate holiday occasions with their family and mates. And to capitalize on the increase of these beer-drinking events, they suggest joining Foster’s for the “Summer Downunderland” promotion. Program materials include display enhancers and POS pieces that play on the many different occasions that are celebrated during the winter months. Foster’s will also be displayed along side Miller Trademark brands for even greater impact. This promotion will run through Dec. 31.

The makers of Captain Morgan Original Spiced Rum have launched a new Web site, captainyourhalloween.com, to help consumers “dress up and get down” this Halloween.

Beginning early this month, adult consumers can log onto captainyourhalloween.com and order whimsical costumes, get creative cocktail suggestions and review party-planning tips.
