Review: Roofraiser Vodka
Roofraiser Vodka is one of over a dozen spirits crafted at Dented Brick Distillery in South Salt Lake City Utah. Some of the other spirits include Antelope Island Rum, Jan’s Premium Craft Rum, Great Basin Bristlecone Gin, Hugh Moon Whiskey, and Dented Brick Premium Craft Vodka, Gin, and Rum. The distillery was build on land that was once the farm of Utah’s first distiller of record. Hugh Moon produced whiskey in Salt Lake City for early pioneers starting in the 1850’s. Included in the purchase was a brick home where legend has it, during a gunfight that killed the owner on his front porch, the bullets left dents in the bricks. Those bricks were hand removed and are now part of the newly constructed distillery. Roofraiser vodka takes its name from the fact that the newly constructed distillery was not tall enough to house the 28 foot custom copper still they purchased to craft their spirits. The roof was raised to accommodate the still. Roofraiser is made from 50% organic red winter wheat, 50% pumpernickel rye and snow melt water from Utah’s Wasatch Mountains that flows through the earth into their private well. The grain is all non GMO, and is grown in Utah. Roofraiser Vodka is fermented, small batch distilled, and bottled on site. Read more
