Washington, DC -- February, 27, 2018 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire -- Affinity Beverage Group, Inc., (hereinafter "The Company") a publicly traded company under the ticker symbol (OTC/Pink: ABVG) announced today that one of the Company’s subsidiaries, Village Tea Company Distribution, Inc is now able to accept the Bitcoin Crytpocurrency through BitPay, a third-party company that enables transactions between a buyer holding Bitcoin and a seller who wants U.S. dollars, for a 1 percent fee paid by the Company.

By utilizing the BitPay platform, the Company doesn’t need to speculate on the exchange rate, it simply enables the owner of Bitcoins to make a purchase by running the transaction through the BitPay payment service, similar to an Apple Pay or PayPal transaction or running foreign currency though a foreign exchange financial institution in order to receive U.S. dollars for a transaction.  Affinity Beverage Group has indicated that this is the first step in an overall cryptocurrency strategy that is currently being explored by the Company.  Since the company’s brands, which include Village Tea Company, Undone Chocolate and Jawea Frozen Desserts, primarily target millennial consumers, the Company wants to be on the cutting edge of new technology that appeals to its core customers and expects there will be more bitcoin transactions across its brand portfolio in the near future.  “The ultimate goal is to enable a broader group of customers to use multiple forms of currency, in this case cryptocurrency, to purchase our products,” stated Company CEO, Janon Costley. 
Additionally, Affinity Beverage plans to release the 2017 Annual Financial Report within the coming month.  Please continue to follow the Company for further updates regarding this announcement and other developments.
