2017 Food and Beverage Trend Forecast

Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants have released their annual trend forecast for 2017. This year’s Avocado Toast and Zoodles nonsense will be far behind us before we can say “Happy New Year” with the onset of new trends that pack a seriously flavorful punch. As you take a culinary tour through each one, there is one staple that should be kept on hand. From the nose to tail movement, and barbecue methods like charring, blistering and smoking, to kitchen-inspired cocktails, fat washing techniques, tiki beverages and ginger beer: Dixie Vodka is the award winning vodka brand and quintessential complement that you’ll stock time and time again. Matti Anttila, whose family lineage dates back to Colonial Charleston, was inspired to create Dixie Vodka while on a hunting trip with friends, recognizing the need for a craft vodka with an authentic Southern pedigree. Dixie Vodka was the recipient of a Platinum Medal as voted by consumers at the Sip Awards and also awarded a Gold Medal, 93 points and labeled a “Best Buy” by the Beverage Testing Institute. So – while you’re making your way through the best smoked, pickled, cured, rich and spicy offerings that 2017 has to offer, remember there is no end to what you can do with deliciously versatile Dixie Vodka.
