DALLAS - April 16, 2013 - PRLog -- GIVEN Liqueur to be distributed by Glazer’s in Texas

Award winning GIVEN Liqueur to launch in Texas just in time for Summer cocktail menu’sand backyard barbecues For Release April 15th, 2013

Glazer’s Inc., one of the country’s largest distributors of wine, spirits, and malt beverages has picked
up the exclusive rights to distribute GIVEN Liqueur, that will be launched in the Texas market at the
end of April 2013, just in time for summer cocktail menus, Cinco De Mayo and Memorial weekend.

GIVEN is the world’s first ultra-premium tequila liqueur macerated with limes and lightly sweetened
with Sauvignon Blanc grapes

All Natural; GIVEN marries authentic Mexican Ultra-Premium Tequila (40%) with the sophistication of
French Sauvignon Blanc grapes (60%).

The GIVEN Journey crosses continents to create a refreshing liqueur unlike anything in the market.
The journey begins in Los Altos de Jalisco Mexico where the tequila is handcrafted from the most
coveted blue weber agaves. From there, it crosses the ocean to the historic Cognac region of France.
Upon arrival, a 5th generation family-owned distillery gently macerates fresh limes and infuses them
in small batches to the tequila. Utilizing a unique artisanal process, ripe Sauvignon Blanc grapes
are compressed and allowed to crystallize to lightly sweeten GIVEN thereby, creating a flavorful,
refreshing, smooth well balanced liqueur that is fresh and light on its own.

Michael Mills, CEO of GIVEN states “We have created a product that can be appealing to adventurous
wine, spirits and beer consumers that offers a consistent citrus flavor profile. This is the first in line
of product innovations for GIVEN and our vision to create the Bvlgari, Givenchy, Hermes of the spirits
business.”

GIVEN is one of the most unique and versatile spirits on the market to date. An innovation of a
sophisticated liqueur that tastes excellent over ice, shaken as a chilled shot and the versatility to be
mixed with any base spirit to provide a tasty and consistent premium cocktail. It works as an efficient
ingredient for classic and custom cocktails including the GIVEN Gimlet, premium Margarita, GIVEN
& Champagne and even adds a fresh zest to any of your favorite craft beers. The GIVEN Journey
extends on to the culinary aspect of the house where its unique citrusy flavor profile compliments
multiple starters, entrees and desserts.

In 2010 GIVEN won a Gold Medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition; successfully holding
its own against more than 100 world class new and established liqueurs. Recently GIVEN also scored
90 points/Outstanding from the esteemed Anthony Dias Blue, The Tasting Panel.

The Refresher: 2 parts GIVEN, 1 part Gin, 2 fresh cucumber wheel slices, 4 fresh mint leaves.
Muddle cucumber in shaker, slap mint leaves to release oils and aroma then add to shaker with ice
and GIVEN. Shake vigorously, then strain into a martini glass, garnish with a cucumber wheel slice.

Texas Twist: 1 part GIVEN, 3 parts Craft Beer. Serve over ice.

The Ambassador: 2 parts GIVEN, 1 part Whiskey, Orange Peel. Add ingredients into shaker with ice.
Shake and pour into rocks glass or strain into coupe glass. Twist and float orange peel for garnish.

Known beverage consultant, Kristy Barefoot, advising on marketing and sales for GIVEN
describes”GIVEN is a small entrepreneurial company and aligning with Glazer’s Inc. and their
ambitious sales and distribution teams in Texas will have a significant impact on our sales and will

no doubt skyrocket GIVEN to be one of the most universally known liqueurs and become a leader in
its category as we expand into other markets. It comes in a memorable tall, black, sleek iconic must
have bottle with an exciting high quality product on the inside that retailers will want. In addition, I
think the trade is going to have a lot of fun with this product and cannot wait to see what the Texas
bartenders and mixologist come up with”.
