VERMOUTH BROVO USA WASHINGTON Jammy Sweet Vermouth 40PF / 750ML

VODKA

BARR HILL USA VERMONT Caledonia’s relationship with the land and honeybees inspired and gave birth to this vodka. Vodka 80PF / 750ML Crafted from honey - cold fermented for several weeks then carefully distilled in their custom stills. The spirit which emerges reflects the essence of the soil and flowers visited by the bees. Each batch exhibits genuine vintage characteristics, due to subtle differences in the honey from which it is distilled as the source from which the bees create the honey changes with the seasons.

Sweet, red Merlot-based vermouth with the addition of cherries, hibiscus, ginger, tellicherry peppercorns, coriander seed, orange peel, lemon peel, cacao nibs, and decaf coffee beans – then sweetened to about 10% sugar with agave nectar.

BOYD & BLAIR PENNSYLVANIA In Boyd & Blair’s book, “hand-crafted” doesn’t meet a finger touching a button on a production line. Or someone running the machine that pastes labels. It means this: Master Distiller Barry Young and his crew unload, prep and mix the ingredients AND taste, smell and scrutinize every batch of Boyd & Blair Potato Vodka, BLY Silver Rum and Boyd & Blair 151 Professional that come from our distillery. Labor intensive? Yeah. Hot as hell in the summertime? Sure. Worth every ounce of every bottle? That’s what Boyd & Blair means by craft. Potato Vodka 80PF / 750ML / 1.0L A small batch vodka made in Pennsylvania from locally grown potatoes by two guys using a copper still, a more artisanal method than the column stills typically used for vodka. The result is a softer, creamier style of vodka that is milder on the palate than most. This is vodka made by people who really care about quality and precision, and that’s obvious at first sip. AWESOME ACHIEVEMENT!” F. Paul Pacult 95pts Ultimate Spirits Challenge 2016/17 TOP VODKA 3 years in a row by the Spirit Journal Potato Vodka Professional 151PF / 750ML Created with both professional bartenders and home mixologists in mind. Like the Boyd & Blair 80 Proof, it is expertly handcrafted in small batches from locally grown Pennsylvania potatoes, however this release is bottled at 151 proof - the perfect base for creating bitters, liqueurs, aperitifs, classic punches and more. “...pleasing and firmly structured; midpalate is tight as a drum, sweet, nicely oily/viscous, creamy and deep. A new direction for supersized vodka from distillers

who know what they are doing.” 5 Stars F. Paul Pacult’s Spirit Journal
