Distillation

The Royal Dirkzwager Distillery maintains its 125 year legacy by handcrafting Van Gogh Vodka in

small batches using a variety of grains, which is a combination consisting mainly of wheat, corn

and barley. The vodka is distilled twice in column stills and then a third time in a traditional pot still

to produce a vodka of the highest refinement. The copper pot still takes "the bite" out of the alcohol,

leaving a smooth finish.

Unique Features

The Double Espresso vodka is unique in the industry in both its flavor, caffeine content, and color.

The Acai-Blueberry and Pomegranate vodkas also have distinctive coloring.

Ratings

Since its inception, Van Gogh Vodka has continually received high ratings from major critics, including

a 94 rating from Wine Enthusiast, and a 5-Star rating, their highest, from The Spirit Journal.

Bottles

Prized by collectors, Van Gogh Vodka's hand designed bottles are each a unique work of art. Each

flavor has a unique design, incorporating the style and themes from Vincent van Gogh's body of

work. The printing process allows the viewer to peer into the design, giving a slightly different view

with each angle.

Martinis

Van Gogh Vodka is made with the martini in mind. Van Gogh Vodka's distillation and infusion

process creates true, sharp flavors that eliminate the need for sugar-loaded liqueurs. The result

is a martini or mixed cocktail that is bolder in taste.

Van Gogh Vodka maintains one of the largest recipe databases available for vodka-based

martinis available online or in print. New recipes are added by the company mixologist and

bartender on a regular basis.
