Our Story
A Bit About Us...
Botivo was created with pleasure, not moderation in mind. It’s for people who love food and drink, for people who care about real ingredients and how things are made. That’s why every detail is carefully considered in the Botivo process, from each thyme leaf being picked from the stem before infusion (to avoid bark bitterness), through to each bottle being hand dipped in yellow wax.
We believe the most important moment of the day is when you clock off and ease into your evening. At Botivo we call this time 'the yellow hour'. We believe that everyone deserves a truly special drink to look forward to in this moment.
Our founder Sam is an artisan at heart and he spent years researching techniques and ingredients to craft Botivo. Our other founder Imme is a healthy hedonist who admits that prior to trying, and falling in love with the uniqueness of Botivo, was the last person anyone expected to rave about a non alcoholic drink. In many ways they are polar opposites, and that’s why it works so well.
Meet The Founders
“I wanted to bring the true craft and depth of flavour we all see in the alcohol category, to the non alc category. This meant using real ingredients, no flavourings and low intervention techniques”
“When I tried Botivo it blew my mind, it was everything I wanted in a drink. I left my job and joined Sam. My friends still can’t get their head around the fact I am co-founder of a non-alcoholic brand... until they try it.”
