Smiling Wolf Crystal is an alcohol-free vodka alternative, produced in the UK from dealcoholised vodka, meaning the spirit is first distilled at full strength before the alcohol is removed. Smiling Wolf calls this process precision distillation, and the drink is made from authentic spirit ingredients alongside functional compounds including L-theanine and caffeine anhydrous, intended for mindful drinking. Crystal is mood enhancing. On the nose, aromas of fresh grain, lemon peel and white pepper come with a minty quality. On the palate, it is clean and crisp, light yet structured, with grain, soft minerality, and a touch of citrus and spice.
