The Spirit Cartel has
added new members Sam Haddon and Adam Keeligan to
its London based agency.
The Spirit Cartel has just added two new members to
its gang, a tight knit bunch of hoods hell-bent on
importing, flogging and drinking the best spirits
from around the world.
Sam Haddon joins the gang as Account Manager,
boosting Spirit Cartel’s profile in Central, South
and West London. Sam has a wealth of knowledge in
the on-trade, spanning over several years, managing
well-established accounts in London and the North of
England. His most recent role has been with
Speciality Drinks (aka
The Whisky
Exchange) where he
demonstrated his talent in peddling some of the
world’s greatest spirits and liqueurs.
Commenting on his new position, Sam says, "Knowing Spirit Cartel’s
portfolio of ground-breaking spirits, I believe this
is a fantastic opportunity for me. My experience
working across the spectrum and my contacts in the
trade will prove vital in growing the brands and the
wide portfolio. I’m really looking forward to taking
on the challenge."
Next in line, with further investment and growth
plans for the brand, Adam Keeligan will head up the
North and West of England as Account Manager.
Hailing from a strong background in bartending, Adam
was one of the first British students of the
European Bartender School to be trained at the
Instructor Academy in Stockholm. Passing on his
proficiency, he then went on to become Head
Instructor for the European Bartender School in
Manchester.
Adam says "I’ve always admired Spirit Cartel and its eclectic range so
I’m chuffed to be part of the syndicate. I believe I
will bring something new to the trading team and I’m
looking forward to helping develop the brand in the
UK and evolving the portfolio."
David Hood, Spirit Cartel Director of Sales, says:
"Sam and Adam are a perfect fit for the Cartel, they
challenge the preconceived norm and that’s an
essential quality for us. They see the trade in a
modern and exciting way that big businesses just
don’t get and we’re confident that our customers
will enjoy working with them both."
The Spirit Cartel agency, based in London,
represents some of the world’s most premium spirits,
including Four Roses Kentucky bourbon which I am
sure many of you are very familiar with. Their
methods may be unconventional and at times
questionable, but nothing stops the Spirit Cartel gang on their mission. Targets include
high end style bars and hipsters hangouts.
You will find the current Four Roses bourbon whiskey
range available from specialist whisky shops such as
Master of Malt
