Become a Crafted Pour Tastemaker
Earn rewards, get exclusive samples, and grow your cocktail influence—by joining the most selective content program in the spirits world.
What is the Tastemaker Program?
The Tastemaker Program is Crafted Pour’s invite-only track for top-tier creators.
Each month, we partner with a small number of creators to feature real cocktail content—recipes, videos, reviews—that gets seen, shared, and used by spirits brands.
Tastemakers receive exclusive product samples, paid deliverables, and high-profile placement across brand and retail sites.
