Since working with Underscore, Degen Distillery has gone on to become the top ‘tech-driven’ spirits company, backed by BrewDog and Google and focused on the ‘social distribution’ model for their 721 Vodka. The launch achieved a 24-hour sellout of their first bottle release and 2 sold-out NFT collections. Event reach includes 15+ major events to date, including Goodwood and Brighton on the Beach, with a combined audience of over 700,000 attendees, involving over 220 Key Opinion Leaders and influencers, including Wise Advice and CryptoDiffer.
With ambitious goals to become the fastest-growing global spirits company, Degen Distillery plans further expansion into Europe and the US with ongoing commitments to carbon-neutral production processes and a direct-to-consumer channel strategy through Web3 engagement.
Degen Distillery is a drinks brand for a new generation. Shaking up spirits and putting themselves under the influence with a change-making NFT community as their global salesforce.
Working with community a tech-savvy millennials and Gen-Z early adopters who seek out new and impactful brand projects was always going to be fun, and so that proved in this instance.
Our investigations found that a Degen is the cool kid of the new group, anti-establishment, a rebel at heart and somebody who embraces change and non-conformist culture. An individual that supports music festivals, nightclub events and great forward-thinking projects. As much socially conscious as they are economically conscious, Degens care about community ownership, privacy and the belief in the sovereign individual who determines a better future…. because those that embrace risk should be recognised and rewarded.
So when creating the characters of The Degeneration we wanted to showcase a customer base who is clearly gender-balanced or neutral and set to revolutionise the way we live, work and interact in the coming years. Our customers are music-loving, counter-culture rebels, likely to be early adopters of the latest fashion trends and the leaders of that revolution that is brewing.

A Degen is a fictional and aspirational character in the blockchain space.
85,000 NFT collections were launched the year of the rebrand, over 5 times more than the previous year.
The design outcome was a counter-culture type brand, rooted in the next generation of pioneers.
More than 43 million NFTs have been sold in recent years with over half coming from secondary sales, generating $36.3 billion of trade volume in the process.
“Thanks Underscore! The more I look at it, the more I love it!”
