DB: Ava Tea Distillation is a company based in Tahiti,
French Polynesia, that makes 100% natural liquors and distilled
spirits with the fruits from Tahiti and all Polynesian islands.
We have 2 ranges, one is the fruit liquors made out of neutral
alcohol and natural fruits and the other one is the daiquiris
made out of rum, cane neutral spirits and natural fruits.
As a unique signature our liquors bottles are decorated with
a thin layer of white sand taken either from the Bora Bora
or from the Tuamotu beaches. We have been in business for
25 years and the philosophy is to use all natural resources
from French Polynesia and turn them into great drinks!

DB: Competition markets fruits flavoured spirits,
meaning they add flavourings to traditional and existing
spirits such as for instance rums, tequilas, cognac,
or vodkas to diversify and increase their range. We
on the other hand use natural fruits to make our liquors
and distilled spirits, meaning that what we add to either
the neutral alcohol base for liquors or rum base for
the daiquiris, natural fruits alcoholic maceration which
implies by the way that our product range can only correspond
to the fruits available in French Polynesia.

Products range from Alc 10% by vol ( 20 proof ) to Alc.55%
by Vol (110 proof)
|
DB: We cover all French Polynesia, which is
a large territory as it geographically spreads over
a surface area equivalent to Europe. We sell in Japan.
And we are now about to launch our products into the
US market. So far we have signed a few importation and
distribution agreements and all our products and labelling
info do comply with the American Department of the Treasury
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco & firearms.
DB: Carrefour Japan is now distributing our
product range

 |
DB: In my opinion, to attend a trade show without
a distributor in the territory capable to follow up
on the enquiries is not a good strategy, frustrating
and waste of money. However, when we have the distribution
channel established, we are more than happy to attend
any major trade show to support our distributors.
|
DB: The IBN World Directory and marketing assistance
have been key for us to expand internationally. The best service
a beverage B2B can provide is an accurate directory like IBN
so companies can get in touch and expand their business via
distributors.
We also have a web site www.avateatahiti.com
and get regular internet orders from it.

Life is a beach, right?
