High Noon is not considered beer or liquor in the traditional sense. It falls into the category of hard seltzers, which are a relatively new and popular category of alcoholic beverages. Hard seltzers are known for their light and refreshing taste, low calorie content, and typically low alcohol by volume (ABV). However, what sets High Noon apart from other hard seltzers is its unique use of real vodka as the source of alcohol.
Unlike many other hard seltzers that use brewed malt, fermented cane sugar, or vaguely described distilled spirits, High Noon takes a different approach by using real vodka. Vodka is a distilled spirit that is typically made from fermented grains, such as wheat or rye. It is known for its neutral flavor profile and high alcohol content. In the case of High Noon, the vodka used is distilled five times, resulting in an exceptionally smooth texture.
The use of real vodka in High Noon gives it a distinct advantage over other hard seltzers. The vodka contributes to the overall flavor and character of the drink, providing a more authentic and refined taste. It also ensures that the alcohol content in High Noon is derived directly from a distilled spirit, rather than through alternative methods.
As a sommelier and brewer, I have had the opportunity to taste and analyze a wide range of alcoholic beverages, including hard seltzers. While many hard seltzers can be enjoyable, the use of real vodka in High Noon sets it apart from the rest. The presence of vodka adds complexity and depth to the flavor profile, making it a more satisfying and premium option for those seeking a refreshing and alcoholic beverage.
