Developed by Lee and Donnie Thibodeau, Cold River Vodka is one of the finest spirits available today. Growing up in the heart of Maine’s potato country, the brothers loved listening to the older men in their lives talk about turning potatoes into vodka but it wasn’t until much later in life that those stories turned into something much more – the birth of Maine’s very own vodka distillery. After partnering with friends Bob Harkins and Chris Dowe the group set off on a journey to make the finest vodka possible using only ingredients from Maine.
Cold River Vodka has a distinct reputation in both the
agricultural and spirits-producing industries. The agricultural industry
recognizes the company as one that has found a way to utilize Maine’s local
crops in a productive manner. The spirits industry is simply astounded – as Cold
River Vodka is the only distillery in the United States that plants its own
potato crops, produces the vodka, and bottles it all in the same place.
The vodka produced by Cold River Vodka is 100% gluten free. Every batch is made small and is triple-distilled, ensuring that the end result is the smoothest and clearest vodka possible – a demanding flavor with just a hint of underlying sweetness.
Sadly, Cold River Vodka isn’t sold all over the country. It can be found primarily in the New England section of the United States and in a few other states. These include North Carolina, Florida, and Indiana. If you’re dying to try Cold River Vodka you can contact the company and they’ll help you to locate the nearest retailer or restaurant serving it.
Hunting down a bottle of Cold River Vodka will be worth every second you spend on the task. We had the opportunity to sample both their regular and blueberry flavors and have never tasted anything quite as delicious. Use it to blend your favorite cocktail, let it add flavor to your favorite dishes, or simply drink it straight. No matter what you do you’re bound to agree – Cold River Vodka is definitely special.
