Collection: Spirits - Vodka
When it comes to spirits, vodka is a popular choice for many drinkers. But what sets vodka apart from other types of alcohol? Let's dive into the science behind this clear, neutral spirit.
What is Vodka Made From?
Vodka is typically made from fermented grains such as wheat, rye, or corn. It can also be produced from potatoes, grapes, or even sugar beets. The key to vodka production is the distillation process, which removes impurities and creates a high-proof alcohol.
How is Vodka Distilled?
During distillation, the fermented liquid is heated to create vapor, which is then cooled and condensed back into a liquid form. This process is repeated multiple times to achieve a high level of purity. The result is a clear, colourless spirit with a high alcohol content.
What Sets Vodka Apart?
Vodka is known for its neutral flavour profile, making it a versatile base for cocktails. Unlike other spirits like whiskey or rum, vodka is not aged in barrels, allowing it to maintain its clear appearance and subtle taste. The purity of vodka also makes it a popular choice for those looking to avoid congeners, which are byproducts of fermentation that can contribute to hangovers.
How Strong is Vodka?
Vodka typically has an alcohol content ranging from 35% to 50% ABV (alcohol by volume). This high proof makes vodka a potent spirit that should be consumed responsibly. When mixed with other ingredients in cocktails, the alcohol content of the final drink may vary.
Is Vodka Gluten-Free?
While vodka is traditionally made from grains that contain gluten, the distillation process removes gluten proteins, making most vodkas gluten-free. However, individuals with gluten sensitivities should opt for vodkas made from alternative ingredients like potatoes or grapes to avoid any potential reactions.
