NON & Food - A Match Made in Heaven
As much as NON is in its own category, we lean on the fact that wine has provided the perfect accompaniment to food. Well, until now.
There is an art to pairing your beverage to your food. It’s there to enhance the taste experience, exploring and challenging new combinations leaving you, at times, gobsmacked but always overjoyed.
There’s a ritualistic element to selecting, even curating, a food menu accompanied by a drinks menu. When your meal is elaborate in detail, in flavour and in sensation, it would be strange to then forget about what you are drinking.
The beverage in which you pair with your meal should be as artful, as complex and unique as well as delicious as the food you are eating. That’s why NON, born in the kitchen in the gastronomical epicentre of Melbourne, Australia, is the ultimate choice for pairing with your food.
Wine has held the title of the perfect accompaniment to your meal yet this means that an alcoholic beverage only has been able to provide that. NON’s bold exploration of flavours from the natural world has allowed a new form of drink to bring the same sensation, yet without alcohol.

CREATED FROM NATURE
All of our infusion blends are made from the ground up, in a purpose-built kitchen. Using ingredients from the natural world, our whole fruits and vegetables lead the taste pillars, creating something quite complex yet perfectly balanced.
Our collection of ingredients are blended together to create something unique yet completely appealing.
MADE IN THE KITCHEN
The importance of building our non-alcoholic beverage brand relied upon a production process that incorporated techniques from the kitchen. Curating flavours that, at first, sound unusual together, but when you try it, make so much sense.
Together with high quality ingredients and a patented production process, the food on your plate and your glass of NON depict a mutual harmony that makes it distinct. They’re prepared the same way meaning they have been nurtured together, thus naturally pair together.
NON is bold and unwavering in its creation, championing real food, flavour, 0.0% alcohol and being born in Melbourne. Using real food and blends that are as delicious as the dish you pair it with, its innovation means you finally have a great drink outside of wine for your dining experience.
THE RITUAL
There’s a ritualistic element to pairing your drink with your food. It gives your chef the opportunity to enhance both, usually from a creative or subjective standpoint rather than a clear scientific route, meaning the room for growth or future pairings is vast.
Then, as you taste your drink and take a mouthful of food, you’re released into something new simply through this carefully selected combination.

NON makes it easier for you to know what to pair each of our infusion blends with. In the world of wine, you can feel overwhelmed with the choice within red wine and white wine.
