Five years ago, husband-and-wife team Melkon Khosrovian and Litty Mathew, infused with Slow Food ideals and deeply engrained eco-sensibilities, harnessed their passion into Modern Spirits, which is a line of uniquely infused Artisan vodkas and gin. And, in a demonstrable, literal sense, the world's a better place for it.
From the beginning, Modern Spirits was determined to change the consumer's relationship with spirits and food. The first meticulous result of their labor of love is an incomparable collection of Artisan Vodkas with foodie-friendly flavors like Black Truffle, Celery Peppercorn and Candied Ginger. These natural infusions were specifically created for sipping, but are also delicately balanced for food pairings and ideally suited for gourmet cocktails.
Dedicated to using only the finest natural products available, they often source their ingredients from local growers and make each product in small batches to maintain maximum flavor and quality.
The results were immediately apparent: Wine Enthusiast proclaimed Modern Spirits as one of the "top 50 spirits" in 2006 and the Wall Street Journal deemed them "Best of the Tasting" compared to other infused vodkas on the market.
In 2008, Modern Spirits expanded their ecological efforts and introduced TRU Vodka America's first completely sustainable spirits line. This means TRU Vodkas are organic, packaged in 100% recycled, recyclable or biodegradable packaging. Furthermore, to improve the environment and reward every customer, Modern Spirits plants a tree for every bottle sold.
Thanks, and welcome to the TRU family.
Part of the fun of working with TRU is seeing the recipes people like you have come up. If you've got one you're proud of, we'd love to try it. And who knows? You might be reading about yourself on the website before you know it.
One of the great things about using seasonal, organic ingredients is that the more the message of sustainable agriculture becomes engrained in our society. From such small steps, revolutions are born.
