Review: Humboldt Distillery Organic Vodka

by Jeff Ellingson

Humboldt Distillery Organic Vodka is crafted from organic sugarcane and pristine water sourced from a watershed that originates in old growth redwood forests.  The spirit is small batch distilled four times.  Humboldt Distillery Organic Vodka is free of glycerin, sweeteners, citrus acid or additives.   Abe Stevens founded Humboldt Distillery in 2012.  They currently also produces a gold rum, spiced rum, and a cannabis infused vodka.  All are certified organic.  The Humboldt Distillery has increased distribution of their entire product line to now include 12 states.

The aroma is butterscotch and vanilla with a straight alcohol backing.  The sweet and creamy vanilla entry builds to a marshmallow peak.  It fades with milk chocolate and finishes crisp with butterscotch, a healthy dose of heat and a  peppery sting.  Humboldt Distillery Organic Vodka is a tasty vodka that starts out smooth and creamy and finishes warm and crisp.
