Bottled Brilliance: How Siblings Turned a Name into a Vodka Revolution

B2B with Randy and Craig

What do you get when a travel-savvy event planner and a patent powerhouse join forces? Rocavaka—a grape-based vodka that's as smooth as the story behind it. In this episode, we sit down with Darlene, co-founder of Rocavaka, to hear how she and her brother Bobby went from trademarking a name to building an award-winning vodka brand. Discover how this sibling duo brought their unique strengths to the spirits space—and found the perfect distillery in Spain to bring their vision to life. Known for their celebrity-featured bottles, Rocavaka has already racked up 8 prestigious awards—and they’re just getting started. Get the inside scoop on their newest bottle design in partnership with Tunnel to Towers, where $5 from each bottle sold supports a powerful cause. They’re not just about vodka, either—fans of lighter sips will love their sparkling cocktail cans, and their growing fanbase swears by Rocavaka’s unexpectedly smooth taste. They’re also passionate about giving back, often supporting non-profit events and hosting tastings. Whether you’re a spirits enthusiast, an aspiring entrepreneur, or just love a great brand story, this episode has something for you. Tune in, toast up, and learn how to get your hands on a bottle of Rocavaka.
