Mark Anderson, the CEO and Founder of Drake's Organic Spirits, came up with the idea for his business after realizing that many popular spirit brands were made from genetically modified corn ethanol. With his background in organic farming and experience as the largest importer of non-GMO verified, organic cane sugar, he wanted to create a spirit with the purest, freshest, and most sustainable ingredients. Thus, Drake's Organic Spirits was born, offering certified USDA Organic, Gluten Free, Non-GMO Project Verified, Vegan, and Kosher spirits, mixers, and ready-to-serve cocktails.
