Tina Karras, Tina's Vodka

CEO & Founder

Tina Bottles Guitar new label.jpg

It's amazing how one dream can give birth to another.  I moved to

Los Angeles with literally one guitar and two suitcases to pursue

my dream of being a singer-songwriter.  I paid rent by working in

restaurants and eventually music venues.  Little did I know that these

day jobs would lead to the creation of Tina's Vodka.

I grew up working in a family owned restaurant in Charlotte, NC and

my first job was washing dishes.  I've worked as a waitress,

bartender, cook, hostess, manager, and buyer while growing up, attending

UNC- Chapel Hill, and living in Los Angeles while writing music

on my free time.  After countless liquor & wine tastings and classes,  

I realized there wasn’t a vodka that had all of these traits:  made from

Organic corn, non-GMO, American made, fantastically smooth,

clean, delicious, and at a good price.  

 I started Tina's Vodka with my credit cards and a small bank loan and just

finished my album that was also self-funded.  I spent two years recording

my record in-between jobs and went to mastering in March 2020.

We were preparing to launch both my vodka and my record during the

music festival season of 2020...then the pandemic lockdowns hit! 

I was suddenly unemployed, going further into debt,

going further into debt, and fighting off a multi-billion dollar

corporation opposing my trademark.

.  

It's been a crazy, winding road and thankfully, my trademark is registered,

Tina's is for sale in California, North Carolina,

and online shipping to 44 states and internationally.   

My record is now out on all digital platforms and I'm researching incorporating

music and sound healing in soil to help the fields heal faster from pesticide damage.  

I'm excited to finally share my vodka and music with you.   

It's never too late to realize your dreams, they can be bigger than

you ever thought.  The person you become along the way is the true creation.
