Round 2 Spirits

Our mission at Round 2 Spirits is to develop innovative, disruptive, and iconic spirits brands that capture consumers’ imagination and create memorable, shared experiences. As our name implies, we’ve done this before. We were founded by a small group of seasoned executives – all close friends – who previously worked together to create and lead prominent global spirits brands. With Round 2 Spirits, we recognized a tremendous opportunity to leverage our collective experience to identify scalable consumer opportunities for innovative products that aren’t being addressed by today’s brands. Bringing together a team of top industry talent who all share a commitment to building high-quality, world-class artisanal spirits, we’re planning a national launch of our first brand later this year.
