Blackwoods launches vodka infused with botanicals
Blackwoods is launching its new botanical Vodka, created by undergoing a bonification process after distillation. The process involves infusing the vodka with botanicals to add a complexity of flavour to the taste of the final product. The vodka is also distilled five times to ensure smoothness and is produced at 40% ABV.
The botanicals used in the vodka are the same Shetland botanicals Blackwoods uses in its gin. They include Sea Pink, Marsh Marigold, Meadow Sweet and Angelica, which are all handpicked in the Shetland between May and July.
Kate Alexander, marketing manager at Blavod, says, “The added depth from the bonification process gives it a really interesting taste you can’t find anywhere else and vodka drinkers can enjoy it neat. We expect this, coupled with the new packaging, to cause a rise in sales in the UK and export markets”.
