Arbikie Strawberry Vodka

Not the kind of Strawberry Vodka you would expect

The Stirling family has been farming the Arbikie family estate in the Scottish Highlands since the 1920s. Four generations of the family have gotten to know this land that is constantly transformed by powerful seas and the turbulent weather inside and out, and they worked with it to grow the most premium crops. The fourth generation, though, is a true difference-maker. Brothers Iain, John, and David that have been raised by the farm and the stubborn lands, found a way to make those crops even more delicious. Even though they chose different careers initially, they returned to the farm in 2013 to open Arbikie Highland Estate Distillery, a Gin, Vodka, and Scotch Whiskey distillery, made almost exclusively (90%) from the farm’s crops.

Let’s just start with this - Arbikie Strawberry Vodka is something else. Named “one of the best things in the bar” by a certain barman and “the most interesting spirit coming out of Scothland” by a certain journalist, this Vodka is a pure and sweetly fruity Spirit with an earthy undertone that will blow your mind. It uses no chemicals at all, this Vodka has a Arbikie Estate-grown wheat base and is flavored by Arbikie-estate grown strawberries. The taste of the fresh strawberries differs each year since it is dependent on the weather, this Spirit has its own unique vintage. Bottled at a powerful ABV of 50%, so careful there.
