What goes into it.

Gentian root runs through all three, the bittering backbone behind every great aperitif. It does not announce itself. It turns up in the aftertaste and stays there, and each Session is balanced around it. It is an acquired taste.

The extracts are drawn over days rather than hours. The better part of a week from mixing to sealed cans. Dozens of iterations before the formulas locked.

Real cane sugar, used in moderation to balance the flavor, after countless alternatives were tried and rejected.

Carbonation kept light, to bring delicate flavors forward, not assault your senses.

Each Session has a rhythm.

One side, all the way through.

A set for each Session, six to eight tracks, built as an arc: the build, then the payoff. The same shape the drink takes over ice.

These drinks were provided at a retreat and they are a VIBE! Made everything feel extra special and curated for our event. I have tried all three flavors and they are each excellent. Very unique flavor combos that take you on a full experience, from initial taste to how it lingers. 10/10!!!

After a long hard week at work this was the prefer way to start the weekend. Pop open a can of Velvet State, crisp, fresh and delicious. While hi-hat is refreshing and Curtain call will be for a very specific cream soda lover, Velvet State is my go to.

Zero-proof drinks can be hit or miss… but this one? Velvet State hit. Super refreshing, easy to enjoy, and honestly perfect for summer days or nights. Whether you’ve got friends over or just want something that feels a little elevated, this does the trick.Hi-Hat was yummy as well :)

Three unique experiences with real depth and bite. Bold, layered, and genuinely enjoyable to sit with. Nothing feels interchangeable.

I usually do not really like drinks besides water. One of those guys. But, these drinks were amazing. My favorite was the grapefruit. It tasted more like a sophisticated dessert than a soda or other drink. I kept going back for more.

Someone brought these drinks to a local three-day event and they were all gone within the first day! Amazing taste. Deep flavors. They will be a crowd favorite and everyone will ask you where you bought them.

Very impressed with all them, I am not a fan of grapefruit, but that one turned out to be my favorite! In the process of ordering more. Love them over ice, the size of the can makes them fit perfect in a glass, no last sip leftover in the can. They arrive in fast and easy to your door. Thank you~

This starter pack completely won me over! Curtain Call surprised me the most because I expected the grapefruit to be overwhelming and it just wasn’t. It’s balanced and it gets even better over ice. Velvet State was probably my favorite though. Blackberry and sage sounds like an odd combination but it works so well together! Hi-Hat is just straight up refreshing, the ginger and lime hit exactly how you want them to.

I drink these over ice mostly but they also hold up as a mixer if you want to go that route. I love that I can enjoy a really nice drink without feeling like I’m giving anything up. This is absolutely going to be a staple in my house and I’m already planning my next order!

Just finished a weekend working long hours photographing a motor race. Late nights and early mornings don't usually lend themselves to having an alcoholic nightcap, especially since there's still plenty of images still to edit and deliver. But popping open a cold can of VelVet State was perfect to take my mind off how stressful the day was out in the trenches. A small reminder that we're all about making beautiful things. And now I'm ready to face the world once more...

It's not there to shock the senses, it's there to soothe them. Oh and it finishes clean, no lingering fake sweetness or overbearing bitterness like some other zero-proofs. Probably the only ones I'm down to have over and over again, truth be told.

Velvet State is unquestionably my go-to. Can’t get enough of it. Just the right amount of sweet to go with a savory meal.

Real drinks for real times! Each unique drink is delicious and like nothing I’ve had before. Truly a drink to be enjoyed.
For those of you who enjoy a little alcohol, these are also a great base for cocktails…yum!
