Hello all you Skeptic Satellites! We wanted to give you all a quick update on all the happenings over here at Skeptic Distillery.
GINQUILA Arrives at Binny's!
Ginquila is not available at 9 Chicagoland Binnys locations! We hope to expand it to the rest of our distribution network soon!
Our Continued Response to Covid-19
Here in Chicago, we have entered phase 3 of our reopening process. Over the past month, we have increased our hand sanitizer production exponentially to include 1 gallon jugs, 5 gallon pails, and large totes. It has been our continued goal to adapt through these times and do our part to keep people healthy. We’ve been keeping busy with donations to local non-profits such as New Moms, Chicago Social Change and Pink Divas and Gents. We have also had the opportunity to donate to the Village of Melrose Park and Bellwood.
On the for-profit side, our sales manager has been out striking up some deals for government contracts and medical personnel. Who would have thought our little 4 person team would be sending large quantities of hand sanitizer to military bases and government facilities across the country?? Well, we’re doing it! We will continue to do our best to turn this obstacle into an opportunity to do some good and stay afloat!
On the small scale side, we’ve optimized our online store to sell hand sanitizer to individuals. The promo code for SkepticInvestor is still active is anyone needs some!
In Response to the George Floyd Protests
Like many areas of the country right now, Chicago is experiencing civil unrest and protesting over the George Floyd murder. To stand in support with the peaceful protesters out there trying to make a positive difference, we are using our remaining stock of old label vodka to raise money for the American Civil Liberties Union. All proceeds from this vodka will be donated to the ACLU. Unfortunately due to shipping regulations, these will be for local pickup only. If you're in the Chicago area and want to participate, you can email [email protected]!
WE GOT BILLBOARDS!
Enough said. Check these bad boys out. We have several of these smaller ones and 2 large highway placements!
Demolition and Redesign Continue
We're continuing our efforts to outfit the building for our future tasting room. Walls are down, others are going up, and we've lined up an architect to start sketching out ideas!
Swag Items Begin to Arrive
After a couple months of delay due to production shut downs, we have finally started to receive our swag bag items! We have magnets, giant ice cube trays, and engraved glassware! We’re currently just waiting on t shirts, a mockup of which can be seen below! Remember, if you haven’t given us your shirt size, email [email protected]. If we don’t receive your shirt size, you will be sent a default Large shirt.
As always, we hope you're all safe and healthy out there. Thank you for your continued support! WE WILL MAKE YOU PROUD!
