Dutch Barn Vodka — Sustainable Apple and Potato Spirit from North Yorkshire
Craft 40% ABV ABV Ellers Farm DistilleryExpected more
Not terrible but not worth the premium. The nose promised Fresh green apple and some depth, but the palate is flat and the Medium disappears too quickly. I've had better vodkas at half the price. The gentle vanilla the review describes wasn't apparent to me. Perhaps I got a bad bottle.
Exceptional smoothness
As someone who's been appreciating quality vodka for years, this is among the finest I've encountered at this price point. On the nose I get a subtle orchard blossom note with hints of hay — let it warm slightly in the glass and the aromas open up. The palate is where it really shines: gentle vanilla with a clean mineral quality. Ellers Farm Distillery has clearly mastered their craft.
