High Rock Vodka is crafted with utmost care and attention to detail, using only the finest ingredients. This exceptional vodka is made from 100% corn, ensuring a smooth and clean taste. Corn is a popular choice for vodka production due to its high starch content, which is easily converted into fermentable sugars.
The journey of High Rock Vodka begins with the careful selection of the corn used in the distillation process. Only the highest quality corn is chosen, ensuring that the end result is a vodka of unparalleled quality. The corn is then milled and cooked to release the sugars necessary for fermentation.
Once the corn has been cooked, it is combined with water and yeast to begin the fermentation process. Yeast plays a crucial role in this stage, as it converts the sugars in the corn into alcohol. This process typically takes several days, allowing the yeast to work its magic and produce a liquid known as “mash.”
After fermentation is complete, the mash is distilled in a meticulously controlled environment. High Rock Vodka undergoes an impressive seven rounds of distillation, which helps to refine and purify the spirit. Each round of distillation removes impurities and unwanted flavors, resulting in a vodka that is exceptionally smooth and clean on the palate.
To further enhance the purity and smoothness of High Rock Vodka, the Lincoln County Process is employed. This process, made famous by Tennessee whiskeys, involves filtering the vodka through Sugar Maple Charcoal. The charcoal acts as a natural filter, removing any remaining impurities and imparting a subtle sweetness to the vodka.
Triple filtration using the Lincoln County Process ensures that High Rock Vodka is of the highest quality, with a remarkably smooth and clean taste profile. The result is a vodka that can be enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or as the base for your favorite cocktails.
Personal Experience: I had the pleasure of tasting High Rock Vodka during a visit to a distillery where it was produced. The attention to detail and passion of the distillers was evident in every sip. The vodka had a silky smooth texture and a subtle sweetness that was incredibly pleasing to the palate. It was evident that the use of 100% corn as the base ingredient, combined with the seven rounds of distillation and the Lincoln County Process filtration, resulted in a vodka that was truly exceptional. Whether enjoyed straight or mixed into a cocktail, High Rock Vodka is a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of distillation.
