Our Story

OUR STORY

 

ROCK'N Vodka's founding team brings together decades of experience in entrepreneurship, branding, and the hospitality industry. This group of pioneers, recognized as influential figures within the service industry, has adeptly opened, managed, and profitably sold numerous businesses. Their keen understanding of effective marketing for spirit brands is deeply rooted in their history of bar and restaurant ownership. Co-owner Rick Nielsen, a celebrated Rock & Roll Hall of Famer, leverages his vast network and massive global fanbase to create unique networking opportunities, boosting the brand's visibility and reach.

Andy, one of the founding members, has an extensive background in the hospitality industry, shaped by his family's businesses in Waukegan, Illinois, and a profound work ethic instilled by his parents. His journey took him from managing a family restaurant to creating a show in Hollywood, where he honed his business and negotiation skills, and eventually moved back to Illinois to expand his entrepreneurial ventures.

 

In 2019, ROCK'N Vodka was born and sold on shelves for the first time, transforming a vision into a multi-award-winning reality. The brand has gained significant traction through celebrity endorsements and strategic partnerships, including Rick Nielsen's influence, which has significantly propelled the brand's popularity through social media engagements and high-profile promotional events.

The Spirit That Thinks Outside the Box

We make a fun and unique vodka that grabs the attention of consumers by using 100% non-GMO and gluten free sugar cane. Founders Andy and Isabelle tried different mixtures of vodka to come up with a unique product. After tasting a 50/50 mix of wheat and sugarcane, Isabelle wanted to try sugarcane on its own, and after hosting blind taste tests between ROCK'N Vodka and other vodkas at their restaurants, where the recipe of a 100% sugarcane vodka won time and time again, ROCK'N Vodka was born!

Watch the full story behind its recipe below:

Thinking Outside the Box
