We craft our Vodka with pride, using a corn-neutral spirit base. Quality is paramount in every step of our process. Traditional pot stills and rigorous taste testing are integral to our approach -this demands skill and effort, which is worthwhile when making high-quality spirits.
Our Vodka begins with a carefully selected corn-based neutral spirit. We combine it with pure water and distill it using traditional pot stills. Through slow and gentle distillation, we separate the initial and final portions from the prized middle section, known as the ‘hearts.’ The other parts, known as ‘heads’ and ‘tails’ are set aside. This precision enhances the spirit’s quality, even if it means sacrificing a significant portion of the final product.
This approach dramatically improves the Vodka’s overall quality and justifies the associated expense. Enjoy the result of our hard work in every sip.
Crafted under Head Distiller Michael McElroy. See how we make our spirits.
Our vodka starts with a corn-based neutral spirit and pure water, distilled on-site in traditional pot stills rather than a column still. We make tight cuts and keep only the heart of each run, which is the biggest reason our vodka tastes the way it does.
Try it in a Transfusion with grape juice, lemon and ginger, or in a Daly Special with jasmine tea-infused vodka and lemon. Find more ideas on our Cocktails page.
