From the December 5, 2011 Brooklyn Ink: “Colin Spoelman, co-founder of Kings County Distillery, makes whiskey. He laughs at the concept of ‘artisanal’ vodka, a spirit which, he says, is about alcoholic yield. Whiskey, on the other hand, is about taste. ‘The art of making vodka…is about removing as much flavor as possible. It’s about making a very pure, very scientific alcohol.'”
To which we say, “Not always.” Don’t believe us? Then have a taste of this vodka: http://alcoholreviews.com/?p=814
Very true, and I agree with his sentiments vodka is just an alcohol delivery vehicle…
