Post# of 27043
Trump Vodka was one of Donald Trump's most notorious business failures. It was launched in 2006, with Trump claiming it would become the country's number-one premium vodka brand. Trump Vodka was sold in multiple liquor stores across the country, but it had yet to achieve the widespread popularity that Trump had hoped for.
Trump Vodka was produced by Drinks Americas., a Connecticut-based spirits distributor, and was made with Dutch neutral grain spirits. The vodka was marketed by an aggressive marketing campaign, which featured Trump's face and tagline, "Success Distilled." However, the advertising campaign failed to capture the public's attention, and the sales of Trump Vodka were never very impressive.
Sadly, Trump Vodka did not meet the mark in terms of its taste. Moreover, with a price tag of $30 per bottle – many felt it was too expensive for what it offered. With distribution limited to only certain states, awareness levels were also incredibly low outside those areas. To top things off, Trump's usually loud and aggressive approach to marketing clashed severely with the competitive vodka industry, one marked by numerous similar products at varying prices.
