About Au Vodka
Au Vodka isn’t just a drinks brand, it’s a movement.
Born in Wales and recognised globally, we’ve redefined what a modern FMCG brand can be. From our iconic gold bottles to boundary-pushing flavours, we’ve built a brand that stands out, scales fast, and connects with a new generation of consumers.
Our ambition is bold: to become the first FMCG business founded in Wales to reach a $1 billion valuation.
We think global, move fast, and build category-defining brands from unexpected places.
Already sold across multiple international markets, we’re not just part of the spirits industry, we’re disrupting it.
