Send us Fan MailNot every RTD brand gets acquired by one of the world's biggest spirits companies. Fewer still land Alix Earle as an investor along the way. Joey Angelo, co-founder of SipsMARGS and Su Casa Mezcal, did both, and the path there ran through 15 years inside the distribution tier, watching thousands of brands succeed and fail before building one himself.In this episode, Joey walks us through what it actually took to launch a premium canned margarita during a pandemic, earn distributor buy-in when the RTD category was still unproven, and build a brand compelling enough to attract Alix Earle organically and close a deal with Sazerac. We get into the white space he identified in the RTD market, why celebrity partnerships live or die on the product underneath them, the route-to-market discipline that kept SipsMARGS focused, and what he learned about timing and patience when a major acquirer comes calling.Park Street Imports is the back-office and importing solution for alcoholic beverage brands launching and scaling in the U.S. marketFeatured Guests:Joey Angelo, Founder & CEO, Su Casa Mezcal & sipMARGSMentioned in this episode:SipMARGSSu Casa MezcalWant to stay in the know about new episodes from the podcast?

In this Future Leaders edition of the Beyond the Benchmark podcast (recorded as of early June 2026), Moz Afzal speaks with Nicholas Hopton, former UK ambassador to Iran, Qatar, Libya and Yemen and Chair of the Advisory Board at the Centre of Geopolitics, University of Cambridge. Drawing on 35 years of frontline diplomatic experience, Hopton explains how the Iran–US war, nuclear negotiations, and shifting alliances across the Gulf are reshaping the global order, energy markets and sanctions landscape – and what this means for investors navigating a more fragmented, “strongman” world.Our host, Moz Afzal:https://bit.ly/31XbkTROur guest:Nick Hoptonhttps://www.nicholashopton.com/EFGAM:https://www.newcapital.com/Important disclaimersThe value of investments and the income derived from them can fall as well as rise, and past performance is no indicator of future performance.

Send us Fan MailBar trends don't wait for brands to catch up, and in 2026, the gap between brands that understand what's driving consumer behavior and those that don't is only widening. In this episode, Tom Cavanagh, Advocacy Manager at Diageo, breaks down the flavor trends, category shifts, and on-premise dynamics set to define bars this year. From the martini's striking resurgence and tequila's continued climb against a down market, to the texture-forward and bitter-led flavor profiles gaining serious traction with today's drinkers, Tom covers the shifts that should be on every brand's radar.But Tom's talk goes beyond trend-spotting. He makes a direct, data-backed case for why brand advocacy is the most powerful lever brands have for driving sales, and the numbers behind a single bartender's influence on consumer choice might surprise you. If you want to understand which trends are reshaping bars right now, and why the brands investing in real human relationships are the ones winning at the register, this is the episode to hear.Park Street Imports is the back-office and importing solution for alcoholic beverage brands launching and scaling in the U.S. marketFeatured Guests:Tom Cavanagh, Advocacy Manager, DiageoMentioned in this episode:DiageoWant to stay in the know about new episodes from the podcast?

Mike talks about actors who had very different careers before making it in Hollywood. From doctors to firefighters, footballers to lawyers, these are the unexpected paths that led some of the biggest stars to fame. Mike talks to They Will Kill You’s director Kirill Sokolov about why he quit his dream to be scientist to direct movies, scenes that came to him in a dream and how much prep goes into a day of shooting with real FIRE. He then talks to the movie’s producers Andy and Barbara Muschietti who are siblings. They are known for directing and producing horror hits like Mama, IT: Chapter One, IT: Chapter Two, and the series IT: Welcome to Derry. Mike talks to them about what a producer of a movie actually does, the hardest things to get cleared by the studio and if a boldly original film originally is seen as a risk. In the Movie Review, Mike talks about Michael. It’s the story of Michael Jackson from his early days in the Jackson 5 to becoming the biggest entertainer in the world. Michael Jackson is played by his nephew, Jaafar Jackson. Mike talks about where it ranks on the music biopics so far of the decade, Jaafar Jackson’s performance and the controversy surrounding what the movie left out. In the Trailer Park, Mike talks about Street Fighter. Set in 1993, estranged Street Fighters Ryu and Ken are thrown back into combat when the mysterious Chun-Li recruits them for the next World Warrior Tournament. Mike talks about his love for the arcade game and why this is both good and bad news for video game movies. New Episodes Every Monday!

A prolific whiskey brand founder and former Chief Whiskey Officer at Pernod Ricard, Kaveh built Rabbit Hole Distillery from a creative vision into a brand compelling enough to catch the eye of one of the world's biggest spirits companies, and when Pernod Ricard came calling, he didn't just take the deal, he took the wheel, going on to lead their whiskey program at the highest level.In this episode, Kaveh reveals what it really takes to build a bourbon brand with a creative mindset: from the founding principles behind Rabbit Hole Distillery, to the realities of being acquired by a global spirits giant, to how he architected a portfolio strategy that balanced heritage and innovation. We explore the surprising link between whiskey and human psychology, his approach to brand building that goes beyond the liquid in the bottle, and the leadership lessons learned from running one of the industry's most storied whiskey programs.Featured Guest:Kaveh Zamanian, Founder, Rabbit Hole, Mary Dowling, and Mash & Mallow Whiskey CompaniesMentioned in this episode:Rabbit Hole DistilleryMary Dowling Mash & MallowPernod RicardWant to stay in the know about new episodes from the podcast?

This Expert Talk features Chris Maffeo, the Founder of MAFFEO DRINKS, to examine why most brand-bar partnerships fail before they begin, and how misaligned incentives, from listing fees that deliver no ROI to guest shifts where brand managers never appear, erode trust on both sides.Chris explores the disconnect between boardroom strategy and bar-floor execution, introducing a practical "if-then" framework for sustainable partnerships that balances bartender personal brand-building with genuine brand advocacy. Chris reveals why treating activations as transactions rather than relationships undermines everyone's bottom line, and demonstrates how accountability gaps, from finance teams demanding immediate returns to bartenders rotating between competing portfolios, can be transformed into long-term value creation.Featured Guests:Chris Maffeo, Founder, MAFFEO DRINKSMentioned in this episode:MAFFEO DrinksWatch on YouTube: The On-Premise Playbook: A Guide to High-Value Bar PartnershipsWant to stay in the know about new episodes from the podcast?

But Christopher Watt, CEO of Branca USA, has cracked the code, delivering a 5% volume increase for Fernet-Branca, an explosive 91% growth for Borghetti coffee liqueur, and helping Carpano Antica Formula become the number-one sweet vermouth by value in U.S. retail. In an industry where heritage brands often struggle to stay relevant, Watt has proven that legacy and innovation aren't mutually exclusive; they're the foundation for breakthrough growth.In this episode, Watt reveals the strategic moves behind Branca USA's remarkable performance: from democratizing Fernet-Branca beyond high-end mixology into college towns and neighborhood bars, to riding the espresso martini wave with Borghetti, to capitalizing on the vermouth renaissance with Carpano Antica.
