About Vodka
Vodka’s name comes from “voda,” the Russian word for water. It is made from a variety of grains, such as sorghum, corn, rye or wheat, and sometimes from potatoes, molasses, grapes, rice, or sugar. The base ingredient is fermented, and yeasts turn the sugars into alcohol. Then it’s distilled (usually at least three times) to extract the alcohol.
Vodka is too strong to drink immediately after distillation, so purified water is added to bring it back down to a bottling proof, which is typically 80 proof, or 40 percent alcohol, by volume.
Vodka that is not flavored is usually clear and has no distinct flavor or smell. It makes a great ingredient in cocktails. Flavored vodka has a special flavor and aroma added to it. The most popular are fruits (cherries, citrus, berries, pomegranate, etc.), chocolate and coffee.

Including the flavored versions of Grey Goose, the vodka is made from 100% French ingredients and is distilled five times for the best flavor.
Belvedere – Belvedere is an award-winning, super premium Polish rye vodka that is produced in the town of Żyrardów, Poland, and made from Polish grains and Polish water. It is known as one of the best vodkas for mixing. It is named after Belweder, the Polish presidential palace, which is depicted on its bottles.
Tito’s Handmade – Tito’s Handmade Vodka was founded in 1997by Bert (“Tito”) Beveridge II in Austin, Texas, with $90,000 he borrowed on 19 different credit cards. It is distilled from yellow corn six times in an old-fashioned pot still, just like fine single malt scotches and high-end French cognacs.
Absolut – Founded in 1879 and introduced to the global market 100 years later, Absolut is one of the largest brands of alcoholic spirits in the world. The vodka is produced in southern Sweden with 100% white winter wheat from local farms and other ingredients that are all grown within a 75-mile radius of the distillery.
Ketel One – Founded in 1691, Ketel One comes from the Nolet Distillery in Schiedam, the Netherlands. It is distilled from 100% wheat in copper pot stills, filtered over loose charcoal, and rests in tile lined tanks until ready. This cocktail-friendly vodka comes in more than 30 flavors.
