Its ingredients, including milk, cream, and honey, were sourced locally from the area. A portion of the sales revenue was designated for the "Aylim" association to fund social and educational initiatives in the region's recovery efforts. The pint's packaging featured artwork by the late artist Rivi Gerloi-Doron.
