Another exciting development at Phillips Distilling Company is the introduction of Cubist™,  a first in category "Freezer Vodka"™. "The World's Most Refreshing Vodka™" will test market in Minnesota and Arizona in August 2021 with an expanded launch in 2022. Consumer insights show that vodka drinkers prefer vodka ice cold and many store it in their freezer to serve at a more desirable temperature. Phillips is the first distillery to create a vodka from start-to-finish that is specifically designed to store in the freezer. When the vodka is at its most perfect temperature -- at or below zero degrees Celsius -- the thermochromic technology activates the bottle to turn blue which notifies the drinker it's ready. QR codes on advertising and point-of-sale materials will link to a video that demonstrates how the label transitions in the freezer along with additional product information. According to Phillips Distilling Company research, 75% of consumers believe Cubist™ is unique from other vodkas. Cubist™ will be available in a 750ML sleek bottle and retails for $24.99.
