Mariette is distilled five times using French, GMO-free whole wheat and water from the Ambes Spring in Bordeaux. The vodka is also produced in three flavors including 'Raspberry & Pomegranate', 'Vanilla & Coconut' and 'Orange & Pineapple'. All flavors use natural ingredients, are 40% Alc./Vol. (80 proof) and certified kosher by the Orthodox Union.

In 2016, Mariette launched its Yes to Vodka, No to Catcalling initiative, in which all truck drivers transporting Vodka Mariette are required to sign an oath to never engage in behaviour considered "street harassment" or "catcalling" towards any individual at any time.[3] [4]
