Together, this dream team aims to shake up the gin cat egory with the best tasting, most approachable gin on the market today. "I can't wait for the world to taste my remix on gin! When I wrote 'Gin & Juice' back in '94 it was about good feelings and real experiences, it just naturally became a global anthem," said Snoop Dogg, the original purveyor of gin, juice and good times. "When creating INDOGGO, I wanted to give those feelings new life with an approachable juicy gin that's smooth like the D.O. Double G." Towns, Co-Founder of Trusted Spirits added, "We're so ex cited to partner with Snoop and Prestige Beverage Group to make Snoop's and our dream a reality.

Hawaii Beverage Guide Tasting Notes Bouquet Initial note of strawberry fruit leather sets a middle note for this gin. It is supported by citrus notes of orange and coriander a half- step above and a cinnamon note of casia a half step below. The juniper notes of this gin ultimately provides a subtle falsetto hook an octave above the rest of the flavors, while still being in key. Palate Initial flavor of dried strawberries dissipates into the orange oil aromatics, and then opens into a blend of the citrus note from co riander and the darker woodsy note of casia. The finish is reminis cent of strawberry gushers without the sweetness. Hawaii Beverage Guide Take If you take this gin too seriously, you’ll miss the point. It is a solid choice for easy to make and easy to drink cocktails, while still pro viding usage flexibility due to its lack of added sugar. Flavors that Work with INDOGGO Beverages: Soda Water and Soda with Lemon, Lime, or Grapefruit, Ginger Ale. Ginger beer is too heavy for this botanical set. Fresh Herbs: Basil, Mint, Thyme Fruit: Lime, Guava, Pineapple Cocktail Flavor Combinations • INDOGGO + Guava + Lime + Mint (Muddled) or Basil (Muddled) • INDOGGO + Soda + Simple Syrup + Lime + Fresh Mint (Mud dled) or Fresh Basil (Muddled) • INDOGGO + Blanco Vermouth + Strawberry Garnish • INDOGGO + Pineapple Juice + Club Soda Entertainment Icon and Hip-Hop legend Snoop Dogg announces his latest creation, INDOGGO Gin.

Distributed By BY: BRENT NAKANO 4 HAWAII BEVERAGE GUIDE JANUARY 2021 HAWAIIBEVGUIDE.COM Origins DNA analysis has shown that Malbec is a cross between Magdeleine Noire des Charentes, the same female parent as Merlot, and Prunelard, an old and endangered cultivar from southwest France.1 Using this knowledge, it has been deduced that Malbec’s origins are in the Lot Valley of Cahors France.2 France The popularity of Malbec is traced to Elenor of Aquitaine (b. 1122 - d. 1204) who championed the grape. Pope John XXII (b. 1244 d. 1334), who was born in Cahors, and moved the papacy to Avignon, used the grape for sacramental wine. In the thirteenth century, Cahors Cot also became popular with the British. Malbec’s popularity grew throughout the century and resulted in 1308-1309 being a record year with 850,000 hectolitres of Malbec wine being imported. This growth came to an end with the start of the Hundred Years War between Britain and France in 1337. Other notable champions of the grape were Francis I (b. 1494 -- d. 1547), who referred to Malbec as les plantes du roi (“the king’s plants”) and Peter the Great (b.1672 -- d. 1725).3 Malbec was a significant grape in Bordeaux prior to the 19th century. At that point, 40-60% of the first growth wines had Malbec as part of the blend.4 However, in the 19th century, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot became popular due to the Malbec crop being impacted by several years of bad weather; furthermore, a naval blockade during the Napoleonic Wars (~1811) caused a switch from the milder Baltic oak barrels which were commonly used for the popular Malbec- Verdot blends to barrels made of French oak, which were commonly used for Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot blends.5 Malbec production was further reduced in the region with the 19th century phylloxera epidemic and most recently when a 1956 killer frost reduced acreage in the southwest of France.6 After the 1956 frost, Cahors became France’s main producer of Malbec. However. it was not until 1971 that Cahors was awarded full Appellation Contrôlee status. Appellation rules in Cahors require Malbec, traditionally known as Côt or Auxerrois, is Argentina's most significant grape and practically synonymous with the country. However, there is more to Malbec than just Argentina. Originating in Cahors, France, the grape is a permissible Bordeaux varietal. However, like wine, trends, tastes and growing regions inevitably change. By vin de Cahors Malbec, known there as Auxerrois or Cot, to compose 70% of the wine, blended with Tannat or Merlot. The clones contained within the vineyards of Cahors were selected for their resistance to shattering and date from the 1970’s.7 Argentina Argentina’s stocks are older as they were brought into the country before phylloxera, and continued to thrive as phylloxera did not pose a threat to the country's vineyards.
