[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]I was recently (and unsuccessfully) shopping for “Licor 43”, a Spanish vanilla-flavored liquor. Turns out its recipe is a secret blend of 43 different ingredients. Trade secrets are everywhere!

食品和饮料行业充斥着商业秘密--复杂的配方和生产工艺如果难以或无法逆向工程,就会成为绝妙的商业秘密。

法院承认啤酒等饮料配方属于可保护的商业秘密(Anheuser-Busch Companies, LLC v. Clark, 764 F. App'x 594 (9th Cir. 2019))。

甚至美国专利商标局也发表了一份关于弗吉尼亚州亚历山大港市酿酒公司的案例研究,指出该酿酒厂将其配方作为商业秘密加以保护。其中一位共同所有人说,商业秘密保护是 "每个人在创业之初都可以采取的一个简单步骤"。

想要比啤酒更烈的酒吗?Benedectine 是一种法国白酒,可追溯到 1510 年。它的配方是由 27 种草药混合而成的秘方。Chartreuse 是 1605 年的另一种法国酒,由 132 种成分制成。据称,只有少数僧侣知道它的配方。

Next time you’re at the pub or backyard BBQ, think about the trade secrets you’re drinking.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][us_image image=”507″ link=”%7B%22url%22%3A%22%22%7D”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
