Named Ostreida, the spirit is made by distilling local oysters along with a neutral corn-based spirit.

As a pairing, vodka and caviar pairing go back thousands of years.

It is true that if we look at a glass of wine closely enough, we see the entire universe. There are the things of physics: the twisting liquid that evaporates depending on the wind and weather, the reflections in the glass, and our imagination adds the atoms. The glass is a distillation of the earth’s rocks, and in its composition, we see the secrets of the universe’s age, and the evolution of stars.
