In the Glass
Appearance
Brilliant, crystal clear.
Aromatics
The nose is wonderfully seductive and decadent being reminiscent of maple cakes with accents of toasted almonds and mineral.
Flavor
The palate affirms the fabulous nose being wonderfully lush and silky with a mildly sweet and pleasingly assertive minerality that adds structure and style.
Intensity & Texture
Medium-bodied with a rich, velvet-like texture while delivering bright acidity resulting in perfect balance.
Cool Factor
I have been a fan of the Vermont Spirits since their founding. The maple Vodka was among their first offerings and it's just as great today.
Value Grade
Selling in the mid-forty dollar range this unique and tasty Vodka is clearly in the ultra-premium price zone.
Analysis
Simply lovely and utterly unique with aromatics and flavors seldom seen in Vodka. Made with 100% maple sap that is batch-distilled in a glass fractionating column and then gently filtered to preserve the distinct maple flavors. Vermont Spirits started by creating their unique maple Vodkas and these beautiful spirits are as good as ever - if not better.
How to Enjoy
Sip chilled or in a dry Vodka martini. Of course you can use this great Vodka in all of your favorite Vodka cocktails but we hate to drown out the beautiful and complex flavors.
