Cold River Vodka Classic
This micro vodka brand should be a part of every bar collection. Cold River Vodka Classic is made in Freeport, Maine. What makes this micro liquor different is that the owners of the company actually grow its own potatoes at their Green Thumb Farms in Fryeburg, Maine, and they use the entire potato, including the skin, that comes from the ground.
The whole potato gives a better flavor, more richness and distinctiveness to the spirit. Cold River potatoes are of such high quality, you can go into any upscale restaurant in Maine and you will find the chefs prefer these potatoes to cook meals. You can eat, drink and be merry with the same potato.
It is so important to find out what exactly you are drinking. Don’t let the ol’ saying fool ya…”you say potato, I say potato,” for all potato vodkas are NOT alike. A lot of potato vodkas will use potato starch–a cheaper raw ingredient. Cold River Vodka Classic is crafted in small batches using water from Maine’s Cold River–a pristine, untouched 16 mile long river in western Maine. The vodka is smooth, clean and quite refreshing. Place the bottle near the crowd so everyone can enjoy this fabulous micro vodka.
Taste test for yourself and compare other potato vodkas. You will find that these American entrepreneurs behind Cold River Vodka Classic really do have vodka in their veins.
By the way, it takes 15 pounds of Potatoes to make one bottle of Cold River Vodka Classic. They have a batch size of 1,000 gallons which is about 5,000 750ML bottles (around 420 cases). Just to do the math for you: that’s 75,000 potatoes for one batch.
