Review: 229 Vodka

by Jeff Ellingson

229 Vodka is crafted at Still Pond Distillers by father and son Charles Jr. and Charlie Cowart.  In 2012 they opened the distillery as an addition to the operating vineyard and farm winery.  229 is their value priced line of spirits named for the area code of their distillery in Arlington Georgia.  Aside from 229 Vodka the line includes 229 Apple Vodka, 229 Peach Vodka, 229 Gin, and 229 Strawberry Gin.  Their premium line of spirits includes Muscadine Moonshine, Still Pond Vodka, Still Pond C4 Bourbon, and Still Pond Willow Rose Single Estate Brandy.  229 Vodka is distilled from pond grown Muscadine grapes, locally sourced corn, and water from the Floridian aquifer.  It is distilled 6 times, filtered, bottled and hand labeled on site.  The aroma leads with musty sweet corn.  Additional time in the glass brings out grape and ethanol notes.  The sweet entry is joined by boiled corn building to a tart grape peak.  It fades with creamed corn, a sprinkle of cinnamon, and Welch’s grape juice.  The finish is semi-dry with a long warm peppery sting, ethanol, bittersweet grape peel, and cinnamon, that leaves a long warm peppery sting with musty corn and char taste.  229 Vodka is a value priced vodka that has a nice flavor profile.  A cleaner finish would have increased their final score.
