MISADVENTURE IN THE MEDIA
“In the final analysis, a diet rich in Misadventure Vodka is an elegant way to address the miscalculations in our food supply chain and perhaps produce a few miscalculations of your own. It’s best enjoyed while creating interesting scars, belting out unabashedly atonal karaoke, or among friends who enjoy tales of the same.”
— Ian Cheesman,
