Co-founder of Modern Spirits Vodka (who once hated vodka!)

Entrepreneur and vodka enthusiast Melkon Khosrovian and I founded Modern Spirits in 2004 after I revealed a secret: I hated vodka (my husband Melkon’s favorite drink). Together, we set out to create spirits good enough to sip and pair wtih food. With award winning flavors like celery peppercorn and grapefruit honey, we make Modern Spirits in small batches and use artisanal infusion methods to produce their vodka’s textured, full-bodied flavors and jewel tones.
