Bedlam Vodka

I want to thank BDanner for telling me about this outstanding and unique Vodka from North Carolina. I picked up a bottle on my last trip to NC and was blown away with this stuff. The bottle is cool and dark with lots of white writing on it. Now the vodka inside is made from rice and that gives it a sweet nose similar to SoJu which is a distilled rice beverage from Korea. This stuff does not burn you at all chilled or at room temperature it is smooth and sweet. With ice, it is great and in mixed drinks, you just need to watch the sweetness as it can be too sweet. Vodka Martinis are very nice and I have made them with Dolins and Martini and Rossi and the drinks went down very nicely. The only negative I have to say is that they have a small distribution area at this time but they are growing. This is an excellent vodka and I like supporting small distillers that make great products so this is an easy recommendation. Enjoy!

I LOVE THIS STUFF! I know I'm biased since this is a North Carolina Spirit, but this has become my go to for Vodka Tonics as well as infusions. The only vodka I know of that is distilled from rice. The base of rice gives this a nose of vanilla and butterscotch and gives it a creamy mouthfeel and a distinct vanilla & butterscotch note on the palate. Limited burn on the finish. It is so unique, it almost drinks like a cocktail on its own. The unique flavor profile has kept me from trying it in more savory type cocktails, but as a sipper or with tonic it is great. This has limited availability so far (NC, SC, GA and NJ) but it is branching out. If you see it and are looking for something a little different, give it a try. At $20 it won't break the bank.

Salty gose esque vodka. Smells like tequila and sake, and tastes pretty good. What a steal for 5 bucks (marked down from 25)

Burns at first but smooth at end, taste nasty tho not as good as other vodkas

Head notes of sweaty socks but the aftertaste is really nice

Horid smell, horid taste. Bad vodka
