Bong Spirit

Bong Spirit‘s Super Premium Vodka fuses together a wave of progressive fashion and designer attitude with an age-old Dutch product of exceptional quality. Its artisinal formula has been handed down through five generations of master distillers and produce through a 150 year old manual process, rich with traditional standards and superior craftsmanship. This distinctive character serves to unite those of various lifestyles together in spirit, by way of expressionism and appreciation for ultramodern music, art and culture.

The Bottle:
Artist Jimi Beach developed the concept of the Bong Spirit brand, a well-designed marketing strategy that not only redefines the spirit world, but also the art community. Bottles of Bong Vodka have a distinct shape, are made with fine glass and topped with a chrome overcap.
