The definitive example of the micro-distilling renaissance, Silver Tree American Small Batch Vodka is the highest rated vodka distilled and bottled in America according to the Beverage Tasting Institute. The 2009 San Francisco Spirits Competition, the largest of its kind in North America, agreed, awarding Silver Tree a Gold Medal.
We distill Silver Tree seven times from a unique blend of potatoes, malted barley, and summer wheat to give our vodka a smooth finish. It is this blend which gives Silver Tree Vodka its subtle, rounded notes, giving it the character of a grain-based vodka and the silky finish of a potato vodka.
Also, we craft our vodka in small batches in our 6 plate column still. Thus, while there is marked consistency from batch to batch, each has its own unique signature - much like fine wine. Each batch is roughly strained, but not filtered, and fills just 50 cases. Each bottle is numbered by hand according to the batch that it came from so that you will know that you are about to enjoy a truly unique vodka made by an artisan distiller, rather than an industrial giant.
