First of all, THANK YOU.
To all of our friends, supporters, customers, and new friends who came out to see us at the distillery last week, shared our posts, commented, brought friends, bought bottles, and helped spread the word — it means more to us than you know.
The response truly reminded us why we chose to open John Emerald Distilling right here in downtown Opelika. We wanted to be part of this community, and seeing so many of you show up for us was incredibly meaningful.
So…we’re going to be a little selfish. 😉
Since y’all helped us so much last week, we have one more big ask.
🍸 Help us get John Emerald Spirits into more bars and restaurants!
Bars and restaurants can order directly from us through a CGPO (Customer Generated Purchase Order).
Here’s how it works:
• 6-bottle cases only
• Mixed cases are available
• Convenient ordering directly through us
• We process the order through ABC
• Delivery to the ABC warehouse store of your choice
This is a great option for specialty items and those products that seem to be “out of stock.” Insider tip: Sometimes “out of stock” doesn’t actually mean out of stock. It just means ABC hasn’t moved it through the system yet!
So here’s where we’re asking you to be selfish for us:
👇 TAG A BAR OR RESTAURANT in the comments where you would love to see John Emerald Spirits! 👇
Help us get our bottles behind more bars, onto more cocktail menus, and into more glasses all across Alabama.
We couldn’t do this without y’all. Thank you for believing in us and showing up for our labor of love in downtown Opelika.🥃
