Bushwacker Spirits: Closing webinar recap

As Bushwacker Spirits' StartEngine campaign approaches its final days, we recently hosted our final investor webinar, offering a comprehensive look at our journey, market positioning, and the tremendous growth potential ahead. For those who couldn’t join live, this recap highlights the key takeaways from the session and why now is the time to secure your stake in our brand.

The Origins of Bushwacker Spirits

During the webinar, we dove into the origins of Bushwacker Spirits, born from the desire to share the beloved Bushwacker cocktail with the masses. Dating back to 1975 in the Virgin Islands, this coastal classic found a cult following in Florida and beyond. Today, Bushwacker Spirits brings that same vacation spirit to consumers in a convenient, ready-to-drink format.

Our CEO, Michael Smith, explained how Bushwacker has captured the hearts of cocktail enthusiasts nationwide, quickly expanding into 17 states and earning partnerships with over 30 distributors. “Our mission was simple—make enjoying the Bushwacker cocktail as easy and accessible as possible, and that’s exactly what we’ve done,” Smith shared.

Industry Recognition and Market Opportunity

One of the most exciting updates from the webinar was a look at our latest achievements. Bushwacker Spirits was recently honored with a Double Gold Award at the prestigious San Francisco World Spirits Competition, standing out among 5,500 global competitors. This accolade speaks to the quality and craftsmanship of our product, helping to solidify our position in the $19.5 billion ready-to-drink (RTD) cocktail market.

Smith also emphasized that the demand for premium, convenient cocktails continues to grow as consumers seek high-quality options that fit their busy lifestyles. “We’re positioned at the perfect time in this booming industry, and our product has the accolades and traction to prove it,” he said.
