Meili Vodka, co-founded by Hollywood actor Jason Momoa and designer Blaine Halvorson, embodies the spirit of adventure, sustainability, and refined craft. Distilled once from seasonal grains and pure mountain spring water drawn from a 300-million-year-old aquifer in Montana, it preserves natural character and clarity. Crisp, smooth, and subtly earthy, Meili is as captivating in taste as in its striking recycled-glass bottle.
