Vermont Spirits Gold is pure, delicate, unflavored vodka handmade in small batches from the sugar of maple sap. It is triple distilled and lightly filtered to allow the distinctive quality of the maple fermentation to come through. That quality combines a fragrant nose with smoothness in the mouth and a slight burn that delights the true lover of a vodka with character.

The alcohol in most vodka comes from grain -- corn, wheat or rye --which is processed and mashed to release sugars that form the substrate for fermentation. Large scale distilling methods eradicate any difference in taste between vodka from different grains and even between vodka from grain and potatoes. Only the techniques of artisan distilling, constant vigilance and highly accurate, laboratory-quality stills would allow the subtlety of these differences to shine through.

In Vermont Spirits Gold Vodka you can taste the essence of spring in the Northeast. Frozen nights and sunny days pump sap from the earth like a silent geyser. First run sap is boiled and sent directly to the fermenters. When the fermenters fill to capacity, the flowing sap is stored as syrup, later to be rehydrated with spring water, fermented and distilled. There is no other vodka like Gold. It is the "single- malt" of vodka, a pure expression of the valley where it is made.

Serving Suggestions Vermont Spirits Gold stands on its own alone. Let first-time tasters drink it neat at room temperature, in a clean glass with no ice. For a martini, shake it with ice and add nothing but a twist of fresh, preferably organic lemon. For mixed drinks that feature fruit juice, vermouth or Kahlua, use another vodka.
