Purgatory Hemp Seed Vodka

Posted April 4th, 2013

From Alaska’s original micro-distillery, Purgatory Vodka is the First Hemp Spirit Approved For US Distribution.

Ultra-Premium Purgatory is true to its lineage. The key ingredients revolve around the finest imported hemp seeds. Hand-picked for purity and quality, the hemp seed used for Purgatory produces polished vodka with a crisp, clean finish. Purgatory is hand-crafted and derives its smoothness from a multi-distilling and charcoal filtering process.

Tune into FOX CT Morning Extra at 9:30am on Friday, April 5, 2013.

Master Mixologist, Signature David will be featured making cocktails with our newest addition, HUSKY Vodka.
