High Basin Brands snaps up Can-Tini
Texan spirits company High Basin Brands has acquired ready-to-drink (RTD) Espresso Martini brand Can-Tini for an undisclosed sum.
Can-Tini is nitrogen-infused to create a ‘smooth, creamy, and tastefully foamed experience’.
High Basin’s chief marketing officer Jordan Rothschild-Noomé said: “Can-Tini is everything we look for in a breakout brand: exceptional liquid, beautiful design, and the ability to stand out in a high-growth category.
“This milestone wouldn’t have been possible without the continued support of our growing investor community. We’re deeply grateful for their trust and belief in our vision.”
Henry Rathjen founded Can-Tini in Austin, Texas, in 2023. Each 7% ABV serve is made with six-times distilled vodka and Arabica espresso.
He said: “From day one, Can-Tini was built to deliver a premium cocktail experience without compromise – something you could enjoy anywhere, anytime, without losing the integrity of a great Espresso Martini.
“Joining High Basin Brands gives us the resources, reach, and strategic support to scale the brand the right way. I couldn’t be more excited for this next chapter.”
The move marks High Basin’s second acquisition in the past 12 months, following its purchase of Treaty Oak Brewing and Distilling in November 2024.
High Basin Brands launched with an oversubscribed US$4 million seed round. The company is led by members of the team behind On The Rocks Cocktails.
