Grand Traverse Distillery Chipotle Vodka (75cl, 40%)

Grand Traverse Distillery Chipotle Vodka is a flavoured vodka made from Michigan grain. It is mashed, distilled and bottled by the distillery in Traverse City, Michigan, and carries a savoury chipotle character rather than a sweet one. Smoky chipotle and earthy pepper sit over a clean, grain-based spirit. It suits a Bloody Mary, a spicy martini or a chipotle mule. On the nose there is smoky chipotle pepper with earthy spice. The palate is smooth and savoury, with roasted pepper, a little smoke and gentle heat. The finish is clean, warming and peppery, with smoky spice that lingers.
