Ketel One Vodka

Wine Enthusiast 90 points - Best well chilled, this classic brand has a mild sweetness that hints at marshmallow and cocoa bean, plus flares of citrus peel, cassia bark and ginger on the clean finish..Kara Newman, October/2013

Ketel One is the smoothest vodka imaginable. Born of a gentle coal fire under the watchful eye of a Master Distiller, Ketel One is created in limited quantities to preserve its exceptional quality. Only the heart of the distillate, the center of each batch, is considered fine enough to be called Ketel One. The first 100 gallons, and the last, are separated and discarded as being either too harsh or too weak. What remains is consistently the smoothest and most elegant Vodka available. This special technique is time consuming and costly but can only be accomplished by using potstills. The result more than justifies the added care and expense as is readily apparent with the first sampling of Ketel One.

When Carolus Nolet Snr first envisioned Ketel One Vodka, it was a unique, high-quality crafted vodka for the modern palate. And with a crispness, clarity and silky softness all of its own, you could be forgiven for thinking Ketel One Vodka is purely a feat of modern liquid engineering. But at its heart is the unique combination of traditional copper pot stills and modern distilling techniques. Not to mention over 300 years of Nolet distilling expertise.
