Podcasts about our vodka

Ruben's an old friend from Amsterdam, a native Aruban who bartended in Amsterdam and London, and whose life was changed by a Diplomatico rum training he attended while working as a flair bartender at London's famed Roadhouse. (That training was given by none other than Declan McGurk, himself a former flair bartender, who went on to become Director of Bars at The Savoy, leading them to a #1 spot on W50BB, and is now  Commercial Director for Boatyard Gin) Ruben went back to Amsterdam with rum in his heart and started Spirited Union rum, inventing “botanical rum”as a category in the process, delivering orders in person, on his bicycle, for the first few years. He then crowdfunded (!) buying the former Our/Vodka distillery & bar from Pernod-Ricard, whose bar, cocktail classes and rum blending workshops have made it the #1 activity in the Netherlands on TripAdvisor.  (Last week's episode was with Brendan Bartley, btw, who bought the Our/Vodka NY bar & distillery and reopened it as Hello Hello Cafe & Bar and Silent Alibi distillery, making 11th Hour Coffee liqueur and more). Ruben's gone from strength to strength with Spirited Union rum, exporting across Europe, to the UK, and to five states in the US (where their first customer was Whole Foods!) and recently started Pineapple Drinks Club to import & distribute founder-led brands in the Netherlands. Enjoy! Ruben on IG: https://www.instagram.com/the_rubenmaduro?igsh=MWJtaTFwYnB5d2ljbA==Ruben on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ruben-maduroSpirited Union on IG: https://www.instagram.com/spirited_union_rum?igsh=MWFxbGxxYTJvZ3E5bg==Pineapple Drinks Club on IG: https://www.instagram.com/pineappledrinksclub?igsh=bDg5NXNvZjRmOGN5 (Get in touch with Duff!Podcast business enquiries: consulting@liquidsolutions.org (PR friends: we're only interested in having your client on if they can talk for a couple of hours about OTHER things besides their prepared speaking points or their new thing, whatever that is.

Brendan's a hell of a cool guy: Australian, learned distilling in parallel with his university medical and science studies back home, got a Phd from NYU, GM of New York's hugely fun Bathtub Gin, and in late 2025 he opened Hello Hello Bar and Silent Alibi distillery, both of which are in the West 26th Street space in Manhattan  formerly occupied by the New York branch of Pernod-Ricard's epically failed Our/Vodka distillery program. This is a proper long Philip-Duff-Show episode, so settle in! We kick off talking neuroscience and Ozempic (because of course) and it quickly morphs into Brendan's career path, immigration advice, bartender training, how they got hold of a distillery smack dab in the middle of Manhattan, what they do at the distillery, and his consulting work formulating liquids for clients as well as running two bars and a distillery, and we taste their first brand, the amazing 11th Hour Coffee Liqueur, as well as a rum brand from a consulting project he's working on and a million other things besides. Enjoy!Brendan on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/b.is.somewhere?igsh=MWI0MzEzdGJjajBiag==11th Hour Coffee Liqueur: https://www.instagram.com/drink11thhour/Hello Hello bar: https://www.instagram.com/hellohellobar/?hl=enBathtub Gin: https://www.instagram.com/bathtubginnyc/?hl=en (Get in touch with Duff!Podcast business enquiries: consulting@liquidsolutions.org (PR friends: we're only interested in having your client on if they can talk for a couple of hours about OTHER things besides their prepared speaking points or their new thing, whatever that is.

När Åsa Caap kom på idén med en både lokal och global vodka var konceptet i princip helt unikt. Att skapa ett globalt varumärke som ändå hade närproducerade produkter var en enorm utmaning men idag är Åsa och hennes kollegor i hamn. Vodkamärket Our/Vodka har lokala destillerier i Berlin, London, Amsterdam och Detroit och öppnade nyligen även i Los Angeles. Nästa år kommer de öppna i Miami, Houston och New York. 2015 blev Åsa inte helt förvånande utnämnd till Årets Intraprenör. Åsas bakgrund är inom innovation och marknadsföring. Hon har två egna patent samt har tidigare arbetat på reklambyrån McCann med kunder som SAAB, Coca Cola och Nokia. Innan hon startade Our/Vodka arbetade hon som Global Innovation Director på Absolut Vodka. Vi pratar för första gången om två viktiga ämnen. Dels om intraprenörskap, vad det innebär och vilka svårigheter det medför att vara "anställd entreprenör". Sen pratar vi också mer om dyslexi och Åsa berättar hur vanligt det är bland innovatörer och entreprenörer. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Moe and Åsa Caap talk about the building of Our/Vodka, a global vodka made by local partners in cities around the world.
