Product details
Mermaid Salt Vodka is an English vodka from the Isle of Wight Distillery, bottled at 40% ABV in a 70cl bottle and finished with a hint of salt. That touch of salinity sets it apart from neutral vodkas, giving a savoury, coastal character that recalls a sea breeze. As a smooth vodka with a hint of salt, it brings depth to seafood pairings and savoury cocktails. It suits drinkers who like a Martini on the dry side, and anyone who enjoys spirits with a sense of place.
Mermaid Salt tasting notes
- Nose: Sea breeze and a light mineral note, with a hint of citrus.
- Palate: Smooth and savoury, with a light saline edge and soft grain.
- Finish: Clean and briny, with a lingering mineral note.
How to drink Mermaid Salt Vodka
Serve it chilled and neat in a small glass, or over ice with a twist of lemon. Mermaid Salt Vodka with seafood is the natural route: oysters, dressed crab, potted shrimps and fish and chips all suit its briny edge. It fits a summer evening by the coast or a seaside-themed dinner at home.
Savoury cocktails with Mermaid Salt

How it compares
Boatyard Pure Plain Vodka is another characterful British vodka, but with vanilla and cut grass instead of salt. Black Cow Pure Milk Vodka is creamier and rounder, while Mermaid Salt is crisper and more savoury, which makes it the better pick for briny cocktails.
