OLDKNOW Is Changing The Look Of The Seltzer Industry

by Chloe Gordon on 07/05/2022 | 2 Minute Read

Founded by Mary Catherine Matheny (MC) and Ryan Warner Wood, OLDKNOW is a spirited seltzer brand that creates a unique drinking experience. The can's packaging looks unlike any other seltzer brand, with a rustic yet wholesome design system. It's different than what the overcrowded market is used to seeing, making for a beautifully artistic statement.

Distilled and produced out of Rabun Gap in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Georgia, the line of spirited seltzers includes Verte Absinthe, Vodka Seltzer, and Gin Seltzer. The Absinthe is actually the first and only Absinthe seltzer in the US! Expansion and new flavor launches are slated for later this year.

OLDKNOW Bev Co. was founded by Mary Catherine Matheny (MC) and Ryan Warner Wood. Both graphic designers and drinkmakers, the two founded the distillery that celebrates virgin mountain water and exquisite quality spirits. Influenced by culture, history and the art of craft coktails, they were inspired to create a inimitable drinking experience. The two considered the shifting landscape of drinkers, introducing an old-world style of drinking to a new generation. They created their spirited seltzers with an emphasis on mindful consumption with their low ABV, the on-demand immediacy of ready-to-drink cans, and the need for clean living practices, with their focus on holistic health, wellness and using real ingredients.
