Our agreement is to search the world and work to develop the very best super premium vodka, and then to deliver that product to consumers in packaging and style worthy of the Trump trademark.”
Donald Trump commented, “Trump Super Premium Vodka is a big idea. Drinks Americas’ management team understands our vision for the Trump trademark. The Premium Vodka category is where the very best of fashionable spirits brands compete. That is the place for the Trump brand. By the summer of ’06, I fully expect the most called for cocktail in America to be the “T&T” or the “Trump and Tonic”. We are very excited that Drinks Americas will be leading this initiative and look for great success.”

Add finding the best vodka on earth and we believe this new product will rapidly evolve into the unquestioned preference of uncompromising consumers.”
Mr. Kenny further stated, “We have a significant number of distributors asking to submit orders and wanting the brand franchise. We know that the power of the Trump trademark, when wedded to a great product in packaging worthy of the trademark will impact our and our distributors’ overall business. We expect to launch the product in time for Spring of ’06. As Mr. Trump has indicated, we truly hope the most called for cocktail of the season to be the “T&T” Trump and Tonic surpassed only by the Trump Martini.”

[…] BEST PACKAGING – Roberto Cavalli Vodka Way too sexy for it’s bottle, I thought Donald was the only celeb with his own vodka. Wrong. This bottle was so frikin cool, I couldn’t take my smitten eyes of off it. The serpant’s tail wraps around the entire bottle, all the way up to the neck, where the snake’s open-mouthed head perches seductively on top. This is one bottle you won’t want to throw in the recycling. As Paris would say, it’s hot. Oh but what a tease… the snake head bottle top is only a promotional item as far as I know. […]
