Our/Vodka recently launched a set of DIY vodka infusion kits that's aptly named 'Our/Infusions.'
The four kit types are meant to build off of the brand's original vodka with notes of oak, juniper, citrus and tea. In a matter of eight to 15 hours, consumers are left with complex spirits that transform vodka into drinks that boast rich botanical enhancements with notes of "leather and caramel," or "fresh citrus and grapefruit," among others.
Our/Vodka's Kalle Söderquist, co-founder and creative director, notes that they've seen incredible creativity from the bartending community within the past few years and says: "We believe that our range of Our/Infusion kits are changing the spirits industry by helping the end consumer to create something entirely new from a bottle of Our/Vodka."
