BC Spirits "Spirits a Day" #199 - Merridale Cowichan Vodka

DISTILLERY NOTES

Made entirely from merridale cider distilled in our hand-crafted copper still to create a silky, soft finish. To further enhance the smoothness, our true craft vodka is mellowed for over three years in stainless steel and then cold-filtered through charcoal. The result is a round, full-bodied spirit that pours cool and clean across your tongue.

BC SPIRITS NOTES

I kind of screwed up the camera angle in the beginning of this one but we got there. Tasting the delightful aromatic and slightly fruity Merridale Distillery vodka. Fruit based, we chat about gluten, how delightful fragrant the vodka is and what cocktails this calls for.

Color - Clear

Nose - Clean, almost rainwater character with slight fruity distillate shining through

Taste - Apple and pear distillate hits you straight away in the front but then it mellows to a clean vodkaesque flavor
