When award-winning product developer and serial entrepreneur, Garrett Green entered the spirits market in 2012, he knew he wasn't going to be able to beat the giant brands at their own game. So, for three years he invested to learn the industry, refine his product, and develop an innovative business model designed to break through their barriers... Today, you can become a Founding member that launches that business model to capitalize on the rare opportunity of building a globally recognized, luxury-lifestyle vodka brand, through ONE ROQ Vodka Club.
O u r M i s s i o n
We love making a superior spirit, but our true passion is sharing the spirited life. For this, ONE ROQ invites you to Escape The Ordinary, by Owning Your Spirit.
T h e V e r y B e g i n n i n g
In the mid 2000s, Garrett became inspired by the success of French luxury vodka brand Grey Goose Vodka after selling to Bacardi Ltd. for $2 billion a few years earlier - but wondered why the market didn't have an iconic American-luxury brand equivalent. Using his entrepreneurial instinct, he saw this as a once in a lifetime opportunity to enter in the $70+-billion-a-year distilled spirits market.
Garrett commenced by scouring US farms and distillers in search for the perfect recipe, eventually discovering a distinguished blend of artisanal mountain water from the Colorado Rockies, and hand-picked sweet corn from the American mid-west. He then began his meticulous process of design, developing the vessel and choosing the name.
T h e N a m e
Garrett believes that success requires immense physical and emotional strength in order to overcome the constant challenges of life. With this, the idea of being reliant upon the self to consistently find strength, led to the notion of "a rock" -- and "ONE ROQ" was born.
V a l i d a t i o n
With a finished product, Garrett launched ONE ROQ in 2012, and within 120 days of its introduction, it won the first-place gold medal for taste and design in the 2012 International SIP Awards In San Francisco - the world's largest, consumer-judged tasting competition - validating ONE ROQ's superior quality, taste and diverse consumer appeal.
I n d u s t r y B a r r i e r s
Over the course of three years, ONE ROQ invested the foundational capital to refine its packaging, build a trusted distribution network, and gain first-hand, exposure to several industry barriers that routinely blind-side new brands. From this experience, Garrett concluded that to be successful in the industry, a brand cannot stand on award-winning credentials alone. The industry's "3-Tier System," "Pay-to-Play" culture, and exhaustive use of lifestyle marketing schemes deployed by larger brands were key barriers to be surmounted with marketing strategy of an alternative realm.
T h e P r o b l e m W e ' r e U n v e i l i n g
"Lifestyle Marketing:" is the common practice of large industry companies placing their brands inside the images of successful or attractive lifestyles. This method is used in an attempt to have us believe that if we buy those brands, we in turn acquire those lifestyles - even "success" in society. ONE ROQ knows this is deceptive, and that the real lifestyles are in reality enjoyed by the owners of brands.
T h e S o l u t i o n
So, in 2016, ONE ROQ abandoned the traditional industry marketing mold, transformed its brand philosophy and redeveloped its business model with ONE ROQ Vodka Club - an industry-first, experiential platform redefining the lifestyle spirit experience through the luxury of brand ownership, and the genuine lifestyle Privileges that come with it.
All images are created and owned by the Company.
C u r r e n t S t a g e
We are currently seeking up to $1.07M to commence the legal, marketing and inventory production requirements to launch the ONE ROQ Club platform.
T h e F o u n d a t i o n I s R e a d y
We've invested heavily to develop an award-winning product, establish deep expertise in the market, and innovate the strategy to achieve material growth to position the company for future success. (Refer to our Projections and Historical Exits diagram below.)

A c c o m p l i s h m e n t s T o D a t e
From 2012 to 2015, ONE ROQ Spirits invested nearly $1M in comprehensive research and development. Through this initial investment, we were able to develop a beautiful and award-winning product, build a stable operating infrastructure, establish a tremendous understanding of the industry, and become the beneficiary of several accolades from renowned international organizations verifying the outstanding quality, reputation and vision of our brand. Some of these organizations include: Robb Report Magazine, the International SIP Awards, Bentley Motors, Elite Traveler Magazine, Black Book Magazine, BIN Magazine, and others.
However, to date, our most important accomplishment was our ability to apply the early investment of the company as an opportunity to improve our knowledge and overall marketing strategy within the industry. Candidly, we have endured numerous industry lessons. Lessons which routinely defeat the seemingly most promising of beverage brands. Through this process, it was able identify and develop a highly differentiated cultural approach presenting the company, with the rare opportunity of becoming a breakthrough brand within the coveted industry category of premium vodka.

Key Differentiators
- A first of its kind gluten-, sulfite-, and sodium-free recipe serving the increasing health and allergy conscious consumer.
- Filtered and distilled using rare copper pot AND glass column distillation. Because, when you start honest ingredients, once is enough.
- Internationally award winning - for taste and design - from largest consumer judged competition in the world.
- Precise brand positioning targeting the yet-to-be-established 'Luxury-American' vodka category
- $1M invested into industry experience and foundational assets (recipe, brand, packaging, distribution infrastructure, strategic partnerships and differentiated marketing strategy). We are an informed and highly experienced startup.
- Innovative "Owners Club" (in development ) will allow the brand to distinguish itself from every major brand by being the only lifestyle spirit owned and guided by the people.
- Innovative Cultural Strategy: ONE ROQ believes in the power of its ETHOS. Creating what we believe to be the first people-owned luxury spirit will allow the company to start a powerful dialog with the consumer and the media regarding historical privileges of the wealthy, consumer equality and the profoundly important economic and cultural transformation benefiting aspirational and educated consumers.
- Direct -to-Consumer Communication: Traditionally, distilled spirits companies believe they must work with wholesalers to communicate their brand's unique value propositions to the end users. However, the use of the wholesaler under traditional practices brings significant communication (and cost) challenges to new brands, as the model promotes three degrees of separation between producers and their end users (i.e., supplier --> wholesaler -->retailer--> end-user), as well as a 'diffusion of responsibility' on behalf of wholesalers and retailers who sell hundreds, if not thousands of other brands. So, we asked the logical question: How can we truly rely upon a wholesaler to accurately and passionately communicate the unique selling features of our brand to retailers, who then would turn around and accurately represent that same messaging to consumers? (The answer: you can't.) So, instead, we deploy direct-to-consumer methods using digital media marketing and face-to-face promotions via tastings and events to reach and communicate with our end users and acquire them through the ONE ROQ Club offering. Through this approach, ONE ROQ can control its destiny. (Note: ONE ROQ is required to sell through a federally regulated supply chain, known as the three-tier system, and lawfully uses this system to carry out the retail availability and home delivery of its product.
C r e a t i v e E x c e l l e n c e
ONE ROQ will launch print, video and ground promotional assets bearing the "Escape The Ordinary," "Own Your Spirit," and "Members-Only" slogan and taglines driving focus to our company's ETHOS.
B r a n d P o s i t i o n i n g
ONE ROQ will acquire the luxury and aspirational groups from the established and growing market of American vodka consumers by positioning itself as the luxury-American option.
L a u n c h P l a n
Key distributor and retailer partners have been established in the State of New York, Florida and California and are ready to begin fulfilling orders for the 1st phase of our launch.
I n i t i a l P r o d u c t L i n e
ONE ROQ will initially focus with its line of award-winning luxury vodkas. Additional product introductions, in and outside of vodka, will be considered based on the interest and demand of our members.
I n t l . A w a r d - W i n n i n g
C r e d e n t i a l s
Presently, we believe ONE ROQ is the first-of-kind, gluten, sulfite and sodium free recipe targeting the growing health and allergy conscious consumer.
As a people-owned spirit, we are positioning ourselves within the growing shared and decentralized economies.

T h e M a r k e t
The $74 Billion global beverage alcohol market is undergoing two macro trends: enormous industry consolidation into five international majors and an explosion of small, premium craft brands driven by skilled marketing and consumer demand. Vodka accounts for approximately 32% of the distilled spirits market, with the category growing at just under 6% per annum and flavored vodka growing at just under 8% per annum. The alcohol beverage market is driven by an increasing shift away from beer and wine towards spirits and in particular premium spirit brands as part of an overall movement towards “high-end” (aspirational) consumption. This macro industry trend has led to the creation of numerous start-up “craft” brands over the last ten years seeking to establish themselves as credible niche players to position themselves as acquisition targets for major industry giants. Highly profitable acquisition opportunities have resulted from industry majors focusing their marketing and distribution prowess to sell larger volumes of portfolio brands, rather than harness resources to internally develop. This market environment has led to on-going demand by these majors to acquire successful niche brands with scalable marketing strategies. Acquisition multiples ranging from 8x to 30x sales with acquisition candidacy triggered at the 30-100kcases ($10M) per annum in gross sales can be referenced in the “Historical Acquisitions” exhibit and diagram.
Significant Market Stats
- Vodka maintains a dominant market share over all distilled spirit categories with a 10+ year track record of continuous YOY growth - it is the preferred spirit of consumers for ease of drinking, mixability, and price - (Source: Discus.org)
- The total number of vodka consumers in the US is approximately 51M adults - (Source: IWSR 2018)
- 40M people on Facebook (alone) have a confirmed interest in vodka, and about three times that number in alcohol in general - (Source: Facebook.com)
- We believe the US alcoholic beverage industry sustains itself in both strong and weak economies.
- We believe, until now, owning your own luxury spirits brand was a privilege only accessible to the wealthy.
ONE ROQ is changing this.
The Historical Industry Acquisition trend illustrates that ONE ROQ needs to establish 30-50,000 cases to enter salable territory.
- Common denominator of break-through brands: 30,000 cases per year
- Ave. Acquisition Multiples: 8-30x CASE sales
- Ave. Years in operation at sale date: 3.5-4 years
- Ave. Topline Sales: $10-20 million
ONE ROQ will aim to generate 30,000 cases in sales within 2.5 years, and case sales of 50,000-100,000 cases by years 3.5-4.

ONE ROQ is a hand-crafted vodka of unparalleled quality and taste - developed with over have a decade of meticulous ingredient sourcing and disciplined recipe tasting. Our first place gold medal in the largest consumer tasting competition in the world is a testament to this claim. What makes us this good? Some say it is a secret recipe made from two of the purest and most iconic ingredients in the country: Mid-Western, American Corn and artisan Colorado Rocky mountain water. Others say it is because it may be first and only gluten, sulfite and sodium free vodkas in the world. But if you asked us, its our unwavering belief that an authentic lifestyle spirit should offer authentic lifestyle reward.
Is ONE ROQ better than Titos Vodka?
ONE ROQ and Titos have a lot in common. We both are made from corn. We both have won first place gold medals in large competitions. We both promote our American-made values. We both come from small beginnings. And we both represent an underlying resistance to foreign-owned brands. However, ONE ROQ and Titos differ in that we invite our drinkers to become more intimately connected with our spirit; to own our brand; to guide its direction; and benefit beyond the glass.

The two important laws governing our operation include securities law called Regulation Crowdfunding (this is how we are able to accept money in exchange for equity in our company); and also, a Federal and State Alcohol Law known as the Three-Tier System, which governs the flow of ours goods through the supply chain.
The Three Tier System is a federally regulated supply chain requiring that all alcoholic producers sell their products to a licensed wholesaler, who in turn must sell to a licensed retailer, who in turn are able to sell to you. Because it could jeopardize our operations, it is important we state that ONE ROQ does not sell its products direct to its members, as this is would be in violation of the Three Tier System. In lieu, the company partners with industry approved, online portals that work with your local retailers to deliver our products to you. Our partner is 1-877-Spirits, a trusted online delivery service of alcoholic beverage for over 30 years - otherwise known as our Online Concierge.

Our Last Week - Our Strongest Yet
about 2 months ago
E S C A P E T H E O R D I N A R Y . O W N Y O U R S P I R I T .
Recitals
ONE ROQ Spirits, architects of ONE ROQ® luxury vodka, is a privately held lifestyle spirits company Founded by award-winning brand strategist, J. Garrett Green. The company is currently raising funding of$107k, which will be used to expand the company’s offering through a subsequent offering of up to $900k. Total proceeds will go towards the development and mainstream launch of the company’s innovative lifestyle platform, ONEROQClub.com, and the “Own Your Spirit” cultural ad campaign, featuring Member equity and privileges.
To Our Current and Prospective ROQs,
The past week was our strongest yet – and we are barely getting started. Club Membership is now at 192 investors with total trailing investment of $72,000 – roughly 67% of our total initial funding goal. Average individual investment hovers at just under $400 with daily average investment ranging between $2,000 to $4,500. Notably, this past week in progress has been the result of a minimal $900 investment into digital promotion – a 1,000% ROI. (Imagine our momentum when we begin to start allocating funds towards broadening our reach.)
Thank you
To New Members: welcome to our journey. To Current Members who have upped their stake this past week: a most sincere thank you - and of course, congratulations. You have again, successfully secured your position at the lowest potential valuation of ONE ROQ Spirit’s future.
Prep For Initial Funds
Over the last four weeks, while the Company has been awaiting receipt of its initial funds (yes, they are still processing via StartEngine), we have taken proactive steps to align with initial marketing partners who will help co-lead our campaign’s strategic online expansion of our offering.
Meetings & Planning For Growth
This past week we conducted several meetings with members of the immediate and extended team to begin discussing the plans that have been established for 2019 to meet the promises made to Members. To this end, and due to an early proof-of-concept being demonstrated through the initial reception of our Club (i.e., thanks to you), there is a growing confidence within the organization that suggests we should no longer discuss ONE ROQ in the context of if we achieve ‘virality,’ but when.
Conference Call
As promised in our former update, we would like to schedule a conference call that our current 192+ Members – and 400+ campaign followers – can utilize to gain another level of insight into the company, the brand, and business strategy. We also want to use this opportunity to answers questions from Membership directly. So, on Friday, please be on the lookout for an update which will preface this event.
Let's Rise
With exceptional - and telling - progress made in just the first hand full of weeks of ONE ROQ Spirits campaign, it behooves me to thank - and congratulate - you all once more. With just a few more weeks to go in our initial offering period, let us rally to achieve and exceed every step of our destiny.
Let ONE ROQ® inspire you to Escape the Ordinary, and Own Your Spirit ™.

WEEK 4 - HEATING UP
2 months ago
To Our Current and Prospective Members,
ONE ROQ Spirits, architects of ONE ROQ® award-winning luxury vodka, and the ONEROQClub.com, is heating up as it continues to drive exceptional week over week growth to its offering.
Club Membership is now at 144 investors with total trailing investment of $56,944. This has successfully put ONE ROQ at just over 53% of its funding goal within its first 4 weeks! Average individual investment still hovers at $400, with total average daily flows between $1,200 and $5,500. Uptick in Gold and Black Level Members continues.
To all New Members: welcome to our journey. To all Current Members who have upped their stake this past week, a sincere thank you - and an even bigger Congratulations. You have each successfully secured your position at the lowest potential valuation of our Company’s future. And this is key.
P r o m i n e n t N e w M e m b e r S p o t l i g h t
ONE ROQ is excited to announce the recent joining of Mr. Jeremy Jordan-Jones. Mr. Jones is a graduate from the Harvard School of Economics, an accredited business analyst, and recently appeared in the Forbes, 2018 Under 30 Summit for his company, Amalgam – the world’s smartest blockchain solution. We are thrilled to have Jeremy as part of the Club representing our focus to advance an industry underpinned by consumer safety, transparency and equity.
2 4 / 7 O r d e r i n g & G i f t i n g
ONE ROQ has begun shipping orders to Members making use of our 24/7 Ordering and Gifting service via ONEROQClub.com. What better time to enjoy the vodka you own, than by sharing with friends and family during the upcoming holiday season? Note, to Members who have placed orders this past week, please allow for a few extra days for delivery as we were required to move inventory to our various fulfillment partners located throughout the country in preparation for the Club’s expansion. After this initial set up, we will revert to normal 3-5 day lead-times for all online orders. Also, related, please excuse any wrinkles that may be present on the labels of these orders as these tend to appear this time of year due the change in climate. We will be working with supply chain to remedy this moving forward. Thank you in advance for your understanding.
S t a t u s o f I n i t i a l F u n d s
As shared last week's update, ONE ROQ has submitted for request for its initial disbursement of campaign funds in order to expand efforts to drive awareness of its campaign. While this request was made on the 7th of November, there is a 10-day processing wait time for the funds to clear into our account. Once received, we will immediately expand our current promotional strategies.
U p C o m i n g C o n f e r e n c e C a l l
With the campaign increasing in momentum, so too are important questions from new and prospecting Members. To help all become aligned with key objectives, strategies and milestones of the Company's plan, we will be planning on holding our first conference call sometime in November. Official details to be announced.
T h r e e F r i e n d s
Whether you’ve secured your Membership, or on your way in, this is your opportunity to secure – or maximize – in early position in our company's future. After our total offering goal of $1M is completed, the valuation opportunity will never be lower. With that shared, future success continues to be contingent on new Member creation, or existing Member re-investment. Help continue our outstanding momentum by sharing the ONE ROQ Club with three friends. This is an opportunity for you to challenge an entire industry; to redefine the essence of what it means to be an authentic lifestyle spirit; to benefit from – and enjoy -- the genuine lifestyle and financial rewards of ownership in a purpose-driven brand, like no other.
Escape the ordinary, and Own Your Spirit. Cheers!

WEEK 3 - COMMENCING DRAW TO EXPAND
2 months agoA brief update as we prepare to optimize campaign momentum for the second half of our offering period.
To Current & Prospective Members,
Another week of outstanding momentum with total Membership now at 121 Members and just under $50k committed in our initial $100k funding tranche. (Average investment amount still hovers at $400 per investor, with a notable uptick in "Black-Level" Members.)
To all new Members: Welcome to Our Journey. To all Current Members who have upped their stake this past week, a huge Thank You, and an even bigger Congratulations.
Some Recitals
Per last week's update, we are currently focused on exercising an initial draw of campaign funds. These funds will be used in order to scale key digital marketing strategies profitably driving Membership growth, in addition to allowing us go to the next phase of the company's plan. Key objectives include: creation of strategic PR platform, meetings with Tier Distributors for FL, CA and NY, continued development of Club privileges, and elevating CRM communications with Membership.
We Aren't Even Scratching The Surface
To echo one of last week's highlights: to date, the Company has successfully risen $50k of investment, with trailing marketing investments of just $5,500. With that said, we are beyond excited to share we will be able to optimize the next phase of our launch strategy by receiving these funds. Growth abound!
Be On The Look Out
Note, the initial draw date was scheduled for the Nov 5 (yesterday). However, it is now scheduled for November 7th (tomorrow). As part of this process, please be on the look out for notification from StartEngine (per SEC rules) to confirm your Investment in the offering - and your Official Membership.

WEEK 2 - PROGRESS UPDATE
3 months agoONE ROQ Vodka Club Reaches Its First
1 0 0 M E M B E R S !
Congratulations To Our Founding Investors!
To Our Current and Prospective Members,
Its been just two weeks, and ONE ROQ Spirits continues positive campaign momentum with $37,500 raised of an initial $100k goal, bringing total membership to 100 Investors! A huge congratulations to you all. You have successfully secured your position at the early possible stages - and valuation - of the Company's future.
Key Accomplishment
We have generated this initial success investing just $5,000 into the initial online advertising of the ONE ROQ Club offering. Everyone, that is a 650% Return On Investment. This means that for every $1 we are able to put behind the advertising of the Club online (namely, social media advertising), we are generating approximately $8 in return. In summary, in just two weeks we have established a predictable model that will allow us to successfully scale our campaign's funding targets to the initial $107k - and up to $1.07M in over allotment needed to take ONE ROQ mainstream.
Next Steps
Importantly, this future success is contingent upon both your continued help, and the Company's ability to draw on its initial funds come November 5th. From here, the Company will allocate the appropriate investments to expand its working model through its strategic Social Media and Public Relations plan. Using these platforms, we will widen distribution of ONE ROQ's content resonating with like-minded consumer-investors, while also commencing the creation of new content designed to focus - and drive - the Company's story and purpose-driven existence.

WEEK 1 - PROGRESS UPDATE
3 months agoTo Our Initial and Prospective Members,
Its been just under a week, and ONE ROQ Spirits is off to an outstanding campaign start with $27,000 raised of an initial $100k goal, thanks to its initial 64 Investors! A huge congratulations to these initial "ROQs!"
Average investment size is hovering at $400, with average daily investment flow ranging from $1,000 to $4,000, and climbing.
As we all know, this is just the beginning of the campaign, and it is essential the Company reaches its funding goals on schedule. Therefore, Sharing ONE ROQ's Offering page link with friends, family and colleagues - or even upping your investment - goes a long way for the Company, and for the future value of your Membership.
We look forward to coming days as we continue to expand the campaign, and engage in weekly updates.

As usual, let ONE ROQ inspire you to Escape The Ordinary, and Own Your Spirit.
