⚠️Warning⚠️
Spirits brands, be careful what you post or what you let influencers post in ads representing you brand!
Don't Post Irresponsible Drinking Photos or Videos
Far too often, we see irresponsible (and dangerous) posts and ads getting shared on behalf of spirits brands that show Glencairns with far more than the 1.5oz-2oz pour, as well as cocktail builds with well over the standard 2-3 oz of alcohol per cocktail in the recipe.

You, as a brand, are responsible for making sure you aren't promoting irresponsible drinking or use of your product.
Make Sure Your Team Knows Safe Food & Beverage Industry Practices
This is why it's so important to have people on your team or who you hire who understand basic food and beverage safety, as well as how to use and handle your spirit professionally.
Make sure your marketing or PR agency knows what they're talking about. It's immediately evident in the food and beverage industry if you don't. Whoever is in charge or your social media's content needs to know basic food and beverage safety and handling.
