🥃 Have you ever wondered why some spirits are so smooth, and some taste like rubbing alcohol? The answer is acetone 💅🏾 Acetone is the chemical that is responsible for giving alcohol its harsh taste, it's the thing that makes your chest burn. Our stacked column along with a special process called fractioned distillation filters the acetone from the rest of the spirit drop by drop 💧 This makes our spirits smooth, which is why you can drink our spirits straight. Stop by your local ABC store, or our tasting room here in Virginia Beach to taste for yourself! Must be 21 to purchase or enjoy. Drink responsibly. #VB #757 #oceanfront #vodka #brunch #cocktails #virginiabeach #virginiacrafted #cleanspirits #purevibes #vibedistrict
