"The packaging, flavors and taste are all there, so I am confident the retailers and consumers will love them from the start!"

"The West Peak organization are great people to work with in this competitive category," said Peter Michel, Vice President of Sales at J&L Wines. "They have it all together with what's in the can, their marketing, competitive pricing and support in the marketplace. They nailed it with their new flavors and variety packs too!"

"We are excited to work with the West Peak team to grow the brand in San Diego county," said Susie Baggs, Owner of Brown Bag Beverage. "The combination of excellent liquid and differentiated branding is a perfect fit for the San Diego retailer and consumer."

"We're thrilled to be carrying West Peak Sparkling Spirits at SF Naturals," said Monte Melnick, Sales Director at San Francisco Naturals.
