DISTILLERY NOTES

If you're adventurous enough to pick up this bottle, we commend you. Because this isn't just another boring, flavourless vodka hiding behind frosted glass, this is a BC Craft vodka infused with scovilles upon scovilles of fresh bird’s eye chilies. It's not for babies.

BC SPIRITS NOTES

The Sons of Vancouver Distillery Chili Vodka has been around since the start of the distillery and I clearly remember tasting it in 2015 at OLO. But revisting and having it on the show for the first time is very fun albeit a little overwhelming. Aromatic pepper spice on the nose kicks into overdrive on the palate with big, spicy punches on the tongue while still balancing fragrant chili. For the spice lover, especially in a Red Snapper.

Alcohol - 40% / 80 proof

Color - Bright orange

Nose - Aromatic and fragrant capsicum peppers

Taste - Starts with that soft vodka base and then decides to tear your tongue apart and then put it back together. Big spice that pierces your tongue and soul

Finish - Once the burn starts to subside, it’s fragrant and aromatic pepper

Best Enjoyed - Red Snapper or Caesar
