The Isle of Wight Distillery has unveiled its new-look Mermaid Salt Vodka.
The stylish new bottle follows the look of the popular Mermaid Gin.
The bottle is sculpted and plastic-free, following the rest of the brand's range.
The Isle of Wight Distillery said:
"We are delighted to announce that our new look Mermaid Salt Vodka is now available to purchase, in a strikingly sculpted, plastic-free bottle, in line with the rest of our Mermaid range.
"Mermaid Salt Vodka is infused post-distillation with locally sourced rock sea salt. Left to naturally evaporate, the result is depth of flavour and distinct sweetness - enhancing smoothness and accentuating flavour.
"This delicate vein of salt creates a back note that makes Mermaid Salt Vodka an essential ingredient for any well stocked back bar - the ideal base for adventurous cocktails and distinctively smooth over ice or with a mixer."
The salt comes from local supplier ‘Wight Salt’ and is harvested from water collected in the flood tide off the Island’s southern coast - an area prone to extreme storms that churn up the ocean floor, releasing huge amounts of flavour-packed nutrients. Naturally evaporated by sun and wind, the resultant sea salt retains a depth of flavour and distinct sweetness.
Xavier Baker, Co-founder of the Isle of Wight Distillery, said:
“This Island is rich in amazing ingredients which we love to use - whether it’s the rock samphire and Boadicea hops in our signature gin, or the addition of local strawberries to Mermaid Pink.
"This, however, was the first time we ventured into the surrounding seas for an ingredient. Perfect on its own over ice or with a mixer, it also really layers on a unique savoury element for cocktails that you just can’t get with other vodkas.“
As with the distillery’s gins, the bottle is plastic-free, with an all-natural cork and wooden top with a plant-based, biodegradable seal.
The Isle of Wight Distillery's Mermaid Bar is based in Pondwell, near Seaview.
