Deconstructed Alcohol Kits

Hocus Comes with "Spirit Essence" Capsules to Recreate Rum, Gin & More

— December 16, 2020 — Lifestyle
There are plenty of alcohol kits that can be purchased for mixing and enjoying drinks from the comfort of home but Hocus sets itself apart by filtering premium spirits into two parts: their unique essence and alcohol. Hocus calls this method "Deconstructive Ethanology" and by sharing single bottles and essences that emulate the flavor of other spirits, drinkers have the potential to create a wide range of drinks.

The alchemy-inspired experience promises to create a sense of wonder, as adults can use Hocus to recreate the flavor profiles of gin, rum, vodka and more. The neutral spirit base is distilled from a mix of grains, canes and vegetables to create a product that has the potential to share "an entire bar in a single bottle."
