Dry Fly vodka is made from 100% soft white winter wheat, which provides a smooth and creamy texture to the vodka. Soft white winter wheat is a specific variety of wheat that is known for its low protein content, making it ideal for producing vodka. This type of wheat is commonly grown in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, where Dry Fly Distilling is located.
The process of making Dry Fly vodka starts with milling the soft white winter wheat into a fine flour. This flour is then mixed with water to create a mash, which is heated and fermented. During fermentation, yeast is added to convert the sugars in the mash into alcohol. This process typically takes several days, allowing the yeast to work its magic and produce alcohol.
Once fermentation is complete, the resulting liquid is distilled multiple times to purify and concentrate the alcohol. Distillation involves heating the liquid and collecting the vapors that are produced. These vapors are then condensed back into a liquid form, resulting in a higher alcohol content.
After distillation, Dry Fly vodka goes through a unique flavoring process. Wild huckleberry syrup and an all-natural huckleberry flavoring are added to give the vodka a bold and distinct flavor. Huckleberries are small, tart berries that are native to the Pacific Northwest region and are known for their vibrant color and unique taste. The addition of huckleberry syrup and flavoring gives the vodka a bright color and enhances its flavor profile.
Dry Fly Huckleberry Vodka is bottled at a full 80 proof, ensuring that it has a strong and robust flavor that can stand up in cocktails. The higher proof also adds depth and complexity to the vodka, making it a versatile and enjoyable spirit to mix with.
Dry Fly vodka is made from 100% soft white winter wheat, which is fermented, distilled, and then flavored with wild huckleberry syrup and all-natural huckleberry flavoring. The result is a vodka with a smooth and creamy texture, bold flavor, and bright color, perfect for creating delicious cocktails.
