Several beverage companies have made their presence known on Web3. Other major corporations, in addition to Moet, have recently submitted trademark applications to enter the metaverse with virtual drinks, such as Jack Daniel’s, Crown Royal, Red Bull, and Anheuser-Busch.
Furthermore, well-known whiskey brands, like Ardbeg and Monkey Shoulder Whisky, have already launched their NFT initiatives, tying the physical and digital worlds together by selling digital NFTs that can be redeemed for physical bottles.
