It owes its unusual color to the anthocyanins contained in the skin of the grapes and the organic pigment called indigotin. To give the classic drink such an unusual coloring, the creators were inspired by the definition of blue in psychology - it symbolizes movement, innovation and infinity.

In cooperation with the University of Basque, six young entrepreneurs developed a formula for the drink, which in the very first year of sales sold in the amount of 70 thousand bottles only in his native Spain. Over time, EU regulators banned calling "Geek" Liv wine because of its unusual blue color, so in Europe it is sold as a wine drink with 99% wine content.
