Authentic Vision enables this new, state-of-the-art NFT cocktail club to use its pioneering consumer engagement software and secure brand protection protocols to confirm authenticity and support consumer engagement.   

EL SEGUNDO, CA — November 28, 2022 — Colton Beverage announced a partnership today with Authentic Vision, a mobile authentication technology company, to launch a first-of-its-kind non-fungible-token (NFT) premium cocktail club, offering members the opportunity to join by buying a Colton-minted NFT to receive monthly new flavor shipments of ready-to-drink (RTD) cocktails. Colton Club is launching with a limited edition offering on November 30 and a live event at Art Basel.  

Craft cocktail connoisseurs can soon enjoy fresh, RTD cocktails shipped right to their doorstep through this new, premium cocktail club created by Colton Beverage Company.  

Through Authentic Vision’s patented “Connected Packaging” technology — which includes a scannable, tamper-evident vacuum-seal security label and Smart Marketing software platform — club members can confirm the authenticity of the cocktails, learn about the drinks’ ingredients, origins, and more. 

“We partnered with the unique software platform available from Authentic Vision® to deliver infallible Colton product identity confirmation on each label seal and provide NFT club member interactions through 1:1 consumer engagement from this unique authentication platform,” said Alvin Widitora, Colton’s Chief Technical Officer.  

“Authentic Vision, Inc. is honored to be chosen by Colton Club for its premier handcrafted cocktail offering, delivering rare flavors and tastes to its members while utilizing our pioneering new consumer engagement software and secure brand protection for this one-of-a-kind craft cocktail club,” said Authentic Vision CEO Thomas Weiss. 

The new product category from Colton Beverage Company pioneers RTD craft cocktails mixed from Treecraft Distillery’s premium spirits and combined with fresh juices, herbs and spices that appeal to even the most discerning palettes.  

These cocktails are made possible by Widitora and his team who leveraged multiple innovations — including the infinitely recyclable steel vacuum-sealed containers developed by Widitora that ensure drink freshness — to bring these novel drinks directly to consumers.
