The cannabis industry is growing at a rapid pace and is moving beyond recreational and medicinal purposes and more towards mainstream consumer products. This shift has resulted in the creation of exciting new categories like cannabis beverages. As a new cannabis beverage brand, your top priority should be to get these products to the market as quickly as possible so that your order cycles bring you constant revenue.

As a cannabis beverage brand in a market category that is relatively new, there are many commercial factors that deviate from the established practices. Join Sid Patel, CEO of Beverage Trade Network, in this exciting new episode of The Wine Whiskey Weed Show where he chats with Lisa Hurwitz, President of Happi.

About London Wine Competition The London Wine Competition looks to recognise, reward and help promote wine brands that have successfully been created to identify with and target a specific wine drinker.

The Mendoza wine region is known for its high altitude and low humidity, with the average vineyard located at least 2,000 feet (600 meters) above sea level. The combination of the high altitude and low humidity has been a real boon for the nation’s winemakers, since it means each grape harvest has less risk of grape diseases such as insects, mold and fungi. Moreover, in recent years, there has been rapid experimentation with high altitude Mendoza wines capable of growing at even higher elevations.

The same team behind the London Wine Competition is now coming to Shanghai in 2019
Building on the phenomenal success of its March 2018 London Wine Competition, Beverage Trade Network announced that it would be hosting a similar event, the China Wine Competition, in Shanghai in 2019. The event is particularly noteworthy because it will be the first of its kind to take place on Mainland China, and will be specifically geared to the needs and preferences of Chinese wine consumers.
As part of its focus on celebrating marketable, consumer-driven wines, the China Wine Competition will follow the same judging criteria and process as the London Wine Competition. The event in London helped to set a new benchmark for judging wines by establishing three important criteria – Quality, Value and Design & Packaging – as the keys to evaluating a truly great wine.

Welcome to Bevcast, beverage trade network's podcast channel where you can get tips from alcohol beverage industry experts and learn more about beer, wine, and spirits.
In this episode, we talk about Armagnac, part of Spirits Styles series by Bevcast.
Armagnac is generally considered to be one of France’s great brandies, with its fame and popularity only eclipsed by Cognac. This specific type of brandy is produced in the Armagnac region in southwestern France, approximately 100 miles southeast of Bordeaux. There are three different appellations for Armagnac: Bas-Armagnac (the top Armagnac producing region), Ténareze, and Haut-Armagnac (which produces the lightest Armagnacs).

Madeira is one of the most historic and famous winemaking regions of Portugal – but it is located 600 miles away from the capital Lisbon and 450 miles away from the North African coast. In short, it’s a rugged, mountainous archipelago that is just about as remote as you can find in the world, and yet by a twist of history, it has given its name to one of the most famous fortified wines in the world: Madeira.

The Tejo wine region (formerly known as Ribatejo until 2009) is located in central Portugal, just inland from the famous city of Lisbon. Unlike other winemaking regions of Portugal, Tejo is completely landlocked, which is why the region has been identified for so long with the Tejo River, which passes through it, connecting Lisbon to Madrid.

The Baden wine region is known particularly for its Pinot (including Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris and Pinot Blanc) wines.

The region of Palatinate consists of an 80- kilometer stretch of wine growing land.

Savoy (also known as Savoie) is located in the eastern part of France, close to the national border with Switzerland and just south of Lake Geneva. The region boasts an alpine landscape, and that means vineyards are often scattered between lakes and hills, and found high up on slope sides. The cooler alpine temperatures mean that the most prolific wines in Savoy are fresh, crisp white wines.

Corsica, a remote island in the Mediterranean, is the one French wine region that perhaps owes as much to the Italian winemaking tradition as the French winemaking tradition. Part of that has to do with the island’s location – it is 90 kilometers west of Italy but 170 kilometers southeast of France. It was only in 1769 that the island finally came under French control.

Champagne, located in the northeast of France just 100 miles (160 kilometers) from Paris, is one of the most famous wine-producing regions in the world. It is known first and foremost for its sparkling white wines made from three different grape varietals: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier.

Chablis is the northernmost district of the Burgundy wine region, known principally for its light, dry white wines made exclusively from Chardonnay. While officially Chablis is part of Burgundy, it is actually located closer to Paris than the Côte d’Or and is usually thought of as a separate growing region, due to the differences between traditional Chablis wines and the heavier reds of Burgundy.

Bordeaux, located along the Atlantic coastline in the southwest of France, is one of the world’s most famous wine regions. The range of wines produced here is remarkable – everything from everyday table wines to some of the most expensive and prestigious wines ever produced. The “Bordeaux Style” has become a shorthand way to describe the process of elite wine production, including the handpicking of grapes at the most prestigious chateaux and the focus on making wines that reflect the natural terroir.

Alsace, located in the northeastern part of France, has long been defined by its geographical proximity to Germany. Alsace is a relatively long, thin wine region that winds along the French-German border. As a result, some grape varietals that are grown here - including Riesling and Gewürztraminer - are not grown anywhere else in France.

Ningxia, located in north-central China, has recently won international acclaim for its high-quality wines that can rival even those from Bordeaux. In 2011, for example, a Ningxia winery won a major competition for its 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon blend, beating out rivals from France. Since then, major international players – including both Pernod Ricard and Moet Hennessy – have kept a careful eye on the region for its distinctive terroir.
