Gray Whale Vodka is a small-batch California vodka distilled from 90% grain and 10% California grapes, with no additives, no added sugar and no gluten, bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV). This is the 1-liter bottle.
Best known for its botanical gin, Gray Whale extends the same coastal philosophy to this vodka, a clean, crisp and cooler alternative crafted from California-sourced ingredients. The brand comes from Golden State Distillery, and its frosted bottle carries the tail of a gray whale.
The California grapes are the key: they bring a silky-smooth, round texture and a touch of natural sweetness that set this vodka apart from purely grain-based spirits, while the small-batch distillation keeps it clean. Gray Whale offers small-batch spirits that celebrate the beauty of the Pacific coastline, and through its Spirits For Good program every bottle celebrates and helps protect the world's oceans. Taste the cool refreshment of the Pacific coastline in every glass.
The nose is soft, with delicate florals and light citrus. The palate is silky and round, and the finish is crisp and clean. Refined enough to sip over ice and expressive enough to elevate even the most basic cocktails, it is a refreshing, unique vodka that works perfectly neat. The brand's own cocktail list runs from a citrusy Sparkling Lemonade and a zesty Mule to a crisp, bright Vodka Tonic and a creamy, balanced White Russian.
