Arbikie Chilli Vodka captures the smokiness of chipotle and the earthiness of Arbikie's potato vodka in a perfect blend of spice and flavor, bottled at 86 proof (43% ABV).
Arbikie grows its own chipotle chillies on its farm on Scotland's east coast and soaks them in its Tattie Bogle potato vodka, creating a natural product with no extracts, colorings or concentrates. It is a prime example of the estate's farm-to-bottle approach.
The flavor is about much more than heat: an earthy smokiness and bonfire and barbecue notes from the chipotle meet the creamy richness of the potato vodka, with a warming, intense chilli finish.
A must for anyone who makes a serious Bloody Mary.
