Premium vodka to be introduced in New Orleans
April 16, 2006

A French vodka described as the purest product of the distillers' art will be introduced to the American market at the Napoleon House in New Orleans. Perfect 1864 Vodka - packaged with a fleur de lis symbol - is made in France. Each bottle costs just under $30, said spokesman Tim McNally.A portion of the sales will be donated to the Crescent City Restaurant Rebirth Project, a nonprofit helping the hospitality community.The packaging alone made New Orleans the natural gateway for our product introduction into the United States, said Paul Connors, managing director of Legacy Imports of Lake Park, Fla., the U.S. importer and marketing company for Perfect 1864. More importantly, we wanted to show our support and unity with this great city in its time of need and rebuilding.Since its introduction in Europe less than a year ago, Perfect 1864 is now available in 12 countries and in Asia.Company executives decided to introduce the vodka to New Orleans in July 2005.Then came Hurricane Katrina and the decision was sealed, said Connors. We committed to this market and promised ourselves and officials in New Orleans to be a part of the exciting and uplifting process of rebuilding a great city.

Perfect 1864, Yet Another High-End Vodka
Posted Jun 16, 2005, 8:59 AM ET by Deidre Woollard

CNN reports on yet another luxury version of that most versatile of spirits, vodka. Small French distiller Peureux and Florida-based Legacy Imports are creating a French-made vodka called “Perfect 1864” for the French and U.S. markets. The vodka is made from French wheat and water from the Vosges mountains. The fleur-de-lis-covered bottles will hit France in September and the U.S. in October. The brand will sell for $40 to $45 a bottle. The article quotes Alain-Serge Delaitte, a spokesman for Legacy in France as saying that the price “will make ‘Perfect’ the most expensive vodka on the market.” We have to disagree with that one. Stoli Elit sells and that’s just one example in a very crowded market. Who knows how this one will do but we’ll test it out once it pops up in the local market.

French Perfect vodka aims to seduce U.S. drinkers

PARIS, June 16 (Reuters) - A Franco-American venture is set to launch the world's most expensive vodka later this year to gain from the phenomenal growth of the spirit, but it faces stiff competition from the likes of Smirnoff, Grey Goose and Absolut.

Small French distiller Peureux (DIDO.PA: Quote, Profile, Research) and Florida-based Legacy Imports are teaming up to create a French-made vodka called "Perfect 1864" for France and the United States from a nation better known for its wines, champagnes and cognacs.

The two firms aim to surf the wave of vodka's rapid growth -- U.S. sales of the spirit leapt 6 to 8 percent in 2004 compared with flattening growth rates for whiskies -- and are backing the launch with a $5 million budget for marketing and promotion.

Peureux Chairman Bernard Baud says the vodka is made from the best French wheat and purest water from the Vosges mountains. The bottles emblazoned with France's fleur-de-lys will be launched in France from September and in the U.S. from October.

The brand will sell for $40 to $45 a bottle, which Alain-Serge Delaitte, a spokesman for Legacy in France, said "will make 'Perfect' the most expensive vodka on the market".

The United States is the world's fastest-growing vodka market, which is already dominated by Diageo's (DGE.L: Quote, Profile, Research) Smirnoff, Bacardi's Grey Goose and Sweden's Absolut owned by Vin & Sprit. The new top-priced brand may have a tough time.

Vodka, typically distilled from potatoes, turnips, or grain in Russia, Poland and other countries in Central and Eastern Europe, accounts for a quarter of all spirits consumed around the world, with 3 billion litres sold each year.

Demand is such that Pernod Ricard's (PERP.PA: Quote, Profile, Research) bid for Britain's Allied Domecq (ALLD.L: Quote, Profile, Research) was partly motivated by a wish to gain distribution for Russia's Stolichnaya vodka.

Peureux's Baud aims to sell 1 million bottles of Perfect in the first year and five times that in three to five years.
