A complex, aromatic Vodka from a craft distilling legend.

Ansley Coale is a man with history. He co-founded the legendary Germain-Robin Craft Distillers in 1982. Then, in 2001 he partnered with St. George Spirits to create a new Vodka Brand — Hangar One — which was a HUGE hit. In 2010 they sold that brand to Proximo Spirits and the partners had to sign an air-tight non-compete agreement. That contract expired in 2013, and within months Ansley started working on Vodka once again — this time with Crispin Cain of Tamar Distillery. They released their first bottles in 2014 and now have six varieties.

It might seem strange to hang the word “straight” on a Vodka. But they do this to differentiate this spirit from the several gentle Vodka infusion products that they offer. DSP Vodka Straight may indeed be “straight,” but it is also very complex. The spirit base is a combination of lightly sweet white wines — Riesling and Viognier — and wheat. It is double-distilled, first in an antique Cognac still and then in a Holstein pot still. The combination develops a perfect texture that lingers richly on the palate.

SmartAss Corner:
The Vodka line is called Vodka DSP CA 162. All those letters and numbers come from the original distillery license issued to Germain-Robin Distillery

Seems that Vodka is a lightweight—quite literally. This clear Spirit actually weighs less than water. One liter of water weighs 1,000 grams, while the same amount of Vodka only clocks in at 953 grams.
It looks like potato chips and flavored Vodka are two things where the producers unleash their imagination. Bubble gum, fresh cut grass, pumpkin pie, marshmallow, and coconut water hardly begin to describe the many flavors of Vodka.
The average life of a $50 bill in circulation is 55 months before it is replaced due to wear.
Unlike its boozy brethren Bourbon and Scotch, Vodka can be made anywhere in the world. But it’s Eastern Europe that gets the credit for its birth. Just don’t ask Russia and Poland to get to the bottom of it—both argue that they masterminded the Spirit first.
Vodka can be made anywhere in the world and pretty much of any ingredient that contains starch.

For a potato-based Vodka, 12kg (26.5lbs) potatoes are needed to produce a single bottle.
You won't impress the bartender by ordering Vodka-soda, but it's a good choice if you want to avoid unecessary sugar intake and make sure you stay hydrated when consuming alcohol.
