About
Credits and licences
Every image on this site is a file we host ourselves. Nothing is hotlinked, so nothing here breaks when someone else reorganises their CDN, and nobody else pays to serve our traffic.
Photography
The editorial photographs are licensed from Pexels. Attribution was recorded at the moment each file was downloaded, because it cannot be reconstructed afterwards.
Product photographs
We host 131 pack shots, each one the brand’s own photograph of its own product, used to identify the drink it illustrates. Every product page links the page its image came from alongside the page its numbers came from.
Every shot was reviewed by eye against the product it is attached to, by rendering all of them as a labelled contact sheet and reading it. The first pass through that sheet rejected seven of eighty-seven candidates: some were a different flavour from the same brand, some were one image a brand had reused across several flavours, and two were abstract brand graphics with no product in them at all. Three of those seven were later re-shot correctly and re-reviewed. Four drinks are still refused a photograph, the last of them because the only image anyone publishes is of the 10mg can and our row is the 5mg one. Those drinks simply have no photograph here, which is the same choice we make about a missing calorie count. How we source covers the discipline applied to the numbers.
Worth saying plainly: a URL check could not have caught most of those. One brand names its files by container format rather than flavour, so the filename said the right thing while the artwork said another. The only method that works is looking.
If you are a brand and would rather we did not host your product photograph, say so and it comes down.
Motion
One clip, five seconds, silent, on the home page. It is an abstract macro of ice by Judi Jutras on Pexels, cropped and re-encoded by us and served from this origin. It is decorative, so it carries no information that is not also written on the page, it is muted with no audio track at all, and it is replaced by a still frame for anyone whose system asks for reduced motion.
Commissions
None, today. There are no affiliate links on this site yet and no commission relationship exists. When that changes it will apply only to barware and mixers, it will be disclosed on the page carrying the link, and it will never apply to the drinks themselves, because the retailers running those programmes prohibit THC products. No brand has paid, or can pay, to appear in the drink database.
Typefaces
Newsreader, Inter and IBM Plex Mono, all open licensed and served from our own origin rather than a third-party font CDN.
