A-B Sequestering Montejo, Nixing Oculto and More

Dear Client:Well, it finally happened. Yesterday A-B sent a note to partners that they would be discontinuing certain brands based on wholesaler and retailer feedback. And, you know, unprecedentedly pregnant shelves. The sales and marketing and High End team chiefs wrote that discontinuations would be effective as of Spring 2017. In most cases, supply levels will not change before that time.This is not just about extraneous flavors. That's part of it. But some pretty big previous bets are now on
