The product is 100% natural and is made from a 4-column distillation process that uses 200% less energy that a traditional pot still.

The 60-proof spirit is slightly yellow with a sweet citrus scent. The taste is a bit sweet with hints of cherry, chocolate and citrus. It makes a great mojito and fine martini. I like it with ice and Pelligrino.
Veev is currently available at stores and bars in Los Angeles, San Francisco and Miami.
