Fog Vodka
California distillery, Hangar 1, is now selling a vodka made out of genuine San Francisco fog. They're calling it Fog Point.
They use mesh fog catchers to trap moisture and then blend this with vodka distilled from a California Central Coast wine. They describe the result as "an extraordinarily crisp, pure, and gluten free sipping vodka with elegant hints of pear, citrus, and honeysuckle." The price tag is $125 a bottle.
Perhaps their next effort can be a vodka made from the tears of a hipster.

Since lead has been eliminated from gasoline, that will be one less pollutant in the mix.

"... made from California Central Coast wine." This is really a euphemism for "crappy grapes that weren't worth picking, but we had to in order to make money this season." And what's with the claim of "gluten free"? Vodka as a distilled product is already gluten free. How's that for marketing hype?
Remember California Cooler? The recipe used the cheapest white wine available which is why it was such a hit and profitable. It was like Kool-Aid with alcohol.
I prefer vodka made the old way with fermented potatoes, distilled out and mixed with water.

I'm holding out for vegan vodka made from kale.

If you HAVE to have some gimmick to get you to drink it save your bucks and squeeze your own potatoes!

Excuse me, but... since when can you make vodka from wine? If you distill wine, you get brandy; to get vodka (and methanol blindness) you distill potato or wheat alcohol.
