Hi Product Hunt! Phil here, one of the makers of SUSSIO. We started building SUSSIO a few months ago because we're adventurers who love exploring new flavors and products from emerging food & beverage brands. But we felt like the discovery process was broken with thousands of products to choose from at grocery stores, on Instagram and Facebook, and the press. We wanted less noise and more substance. We want to help others find the best products for their tastes! We just launched with our first few hundred brands -- right now you can curate lists for your liking. Let us know what other brands you'd like to see. Exploring new products and flavors is great but SUSSIO is really about sharing them with the people in your life. So grab a few friends, hop on SUSSIO, and let us know what you think!

Really interesting concept. My girlfriend and I have been trying to discover different Asian alcohols that we want to try out given our love for Makgeolli and Sake. We ended up coming across SUSSIO and were able to try out MAKKU and Nankai Shochu through their recommendations. Definitely going to keep my eye out on SUSSIO for further recommendations for other alcoholic beverages, really helpful for my growing collection of taste tests for emerging alcohol brands! Might have to try some of the keto-friendly snacks next!

@dkjlee95 Glad to hear! We have some exciting partnerships with some pre-launch Asian alcohol brands coming in the near future! Stay tuned for some new flavors :)

Looks nice! I've recently discovered different ages have different tastes - do you take into account any special points like that?
Phil Chen
@valeryfenskaya that's a really great point! that's something that we're certainly keeping in mind for the future, as each person has different tastes which may change with age

Been loving the virtual tastings! Looking forward to doing some real ones when things get back. A lot of cool stuff I have started to order after trying & getting some recommendations.
Phil Chen
@ben_dunbargk thanks for the kind words! We're excited for in-person tastings as well once it's safe for everyone to come together again :)

It's been great to connect with founders and do private tastings during the pandemic. Sussio has a great curation of products and is always partnering with some awesome new brands!
Phil Chen

Love using SUSSIO so far and excited to see what’s next! Feels like a modern way to evaluate new brands, seeing past traditional marketing to get real reviews from real people
Phil Chen
@gong thanks Kevin! Appreciate the words. Yes, our goal is to help consumers suss out the marketing and packaging and focus on the actual quality and flavors of each product. We've had too many bad experiences where we got sold on beautifully packaged products only to learn that the flavors of the products themselves weren't good at all

Cool way to get exposure to brands I would never have heard about otherwise. The virtual tastings have really helped to humanize the discovery process and learn more about the people behind these products!
Jennifer Lo
