Blue Ice American Double Espresso is a flavoured vodka distilled in Rigby, Idaho, bottled at 35% ABV (70 proof).
It is created with the finest brewed Arabica coffee beans and Idaho Russet potatoes, a legendary concoction made for the American espresso martini.
It is distilled in a four-column still and filtered five times for clarity.
Rich, roasted espresso leads, with a smooth, slightly sweet finish; it is gluten-free and made with naturally sourced water.
It was named Vodka of the Year at the USA Spirits Ratings, and its embossed 'Distilled Rigby, Idaho' bottle is a handsome addition to the bar. Potato vodka gives it a soft, creamy body that pairs naturally with coffee, so it delivers a café-quality Espresso Martini with very little effort, and at 70 proof it is smooth enough to sip over ice as an after-dinner treat.

How to Enjoy It
Blue Ice Double Espresso was made for the Espresso Martini: shake it hard with a shot of fresh espresso and a little simple syrup, strain into a chilled coupe and garnish with three coffee beans. It is also delicious over ice with cream as a White Russian, in hot coffee or cocoa, or poured over vanilla ice cream as an affogato. Pair it with tiramisu, biscotti and dark chocolate. For a party, set up an espresso martini station. For a gathering, chill the bottle and set out glasses, ice and garnishes so guests can serve themselves. A bottle also makes a thoughtful host gift for a dinner party or the holidays.
