“Hey, check out this awesome geological discovery! It’s a 26,000-year-old aquifer!”
“Let’s turn it into booze.”
And so 26000 Vodka was born.
26000 Vodka comes from New Zealand, and it’s gimmick is it’s made from water that’s 26,000 years old. The gimmick’s definitely working, too, as the company’s sold three times as many bottles since September as they expected to sell for the whole year.
The water comes from a secret bore to an aquifier containing water that likely fell as rain during the last Ice Age. The company actually hauls water back to the factory in Land Rovers. It’s comforting to know that precious natural resources are being used for a good cause.
