Voodoo Scientific Welcomes Jeff Hopmayer to the Board

Voodoo Scientific is thrilled to announce the appointment of Jeff Hopmayer to its board of directors and his investment in the company. This comes as Voodoo Scientific is set to transform the spirits industry with revolutionary technology that eliminates harshness from alcohol. With a focus on innovation and quality, Hopmayer's involvement is a significant milestone for the company.

Who Is Jeff Hopmayer?

Jeff Hopmayer is renowned in the spirits world as the founder of Brindiamo Group, a comprehensive whiskey solutions provider. Under his leadership, Brindiamo evolved into an influential player in whiskey innovation, helping brands, distilleries, and investors navigate the complex landscape of premium whiskey sourcing and management. Hopmayer's extensive background, coupled with his tenure as a board member at the Bardstown Bourbon Company, marks him as an invaluable asset to Voodoo Scientific.

Dr. Joana Montenegro, Chief Science Officer and co-founder of Voodoo Scientific, expressed excitement at Hopmayer's addition: "Jeff has a deep understanding of the spirits industry globally, and has also been an innovator and a business-builder his entire career. His track record of helping successful brands grow as category leaders is unmatched. We are thrilled to have him on board."

A Game-Changing Technology

Voodoo Scientific is pioneering a groundbreaking approach to spirit production with its Viriato enzyme technology. This patented innovation allows distillers to produce smoother spirits by eliminating unwanted harshness, giving consumers a superior tasting experience. The company has secured its U.S. patent and is in the process of filing in over 20 countries, cementing its global footprint in the spirits market.

During his initial evaluation of the technology, Hopmayer stated, "After retiring from Brindiamo, I was ready to take a break. However, once I experienced the scientific approach and the taste test, I was convinced this could revolutionize the beverage alcohol industry. I want to be part of it!"

As Voodoo Scientific gears up for commercial launch, the focus is now on establishing partnerships with select brands. The enthusiasm in discussions with various spirits companies has been overwhelmingly positive, highlighting the industry's eagerness for innovative products.

Looking Ahead

With the anticipated early commercial availability of the Viriato product slated for mid-2026, Voodoo Scientific aims to collaborate with industry leaders to develop new premium platforms and flavors. The goal is to set new standards for smoothness and taste in spirits. The strategic vision is clear: leverage innovation to drive growth and create unforgettable consumer experiences.

Hopmayer's expertise and unique perspectives, shaped by years spent nurturing iconic spirits brands, will be instrumental as Voodoo strives to enhance value for its customers and their consumers alike.
