The Science Behind the Spirit – Crafting Non-Alcoholic Alternatives

Join Catwalk Botanics for an engaging session that delves into the science and creativity behind non-alcoholic spirits. Discover how taste, aroma, and mouthfeel are carefully engineered without alcohol, using sensory science to build complexity in flavor. Participants will explore a hands-on botanical blending lab, working with a curated selection of botanicals, distillates, and extracts to create their own unique flavor profiles under expert guidance. The session also covers advanced formulation techniques, including emulsification, layering, and the use of natural preservatives to develop shelf-stable alternatives. Enjoy a guided tasting of Catwalk Botanics’ signature creations alongside your own custom blend, with expert feedback to refine your palate. Wrap up the experience with an innovation chat and live Q&A, where you can connect with the creators, learn about their R&D process, and explore emerging trends in the world of mindful drinking.
