Spring44 Honey Vodka

Spring44 Honey Vodka

Just a few miles north of Denver, Colorado, Jeff Lindauer and Russ Wall are hoisting an , 450-gallon stainless steel water tank into the back of their Ford F-250 pickup truck. The truck, which the pair have nicknamed "Tinkerbell," is used to transport water sourced from Spring44 back to their distillery in Loveland, Colorado. "The first time I knew we really had something really special was when the lab called and asked where I got it," says Lindauer about water sourced from Spring44. In 1969, Don Lindauer Jeff's father purchased a 40-acre parcel of property in Northern Colorado that remains accessible only by navigating a jeep trail. The property, situated 9,000 feet above sea level and completely surrounded by the Roosevelt National Forest, is home to Spring44, one of the purest sources of water on Earth. Spring44 water is never touched by chemicals or municipal water treatment plants it comes directly from the ground. The spring isn't even served by an electrical grid the power needed to source the water from the spring is generated entirely from the sun. Naturally filtered by earth, only one billionth of one percent (or 0.000000001%) of water in the world meets this strict definition. In addition, the water sourced from the spring is slightly acidic and has a low Total Dissolved Solids ratio, meaning it has virtually no taste except for a touch of sweetness. "It's high-quality water," says Joe Tamurini, a senior engineer at Tetra Tech, a firm that specializes in engineering and consulting services related to water. Together with Jeff McPhie, Lindauer and Wall transport water sourced from Spring44 in Tinkerbell, which is outfitted with special suspension and gears in order in order navigate the jeep trail. At their distillery, the trio ferment a mash of corn, wheat and rye sourced from the Midwest before distilling it five times over in their custom-made, 50-gallon glass still. After distillation, the vodka is infused with raw, natural Colorado honey and brought to proof with water sourced from Spring44. Finally, the vodka is put through a unique, virgin coconut-husk carbon filtration process that removes any impurities. Spring44 is an incredibly smooth and pure vodka. It has hints of vanilla and caramel, and a touch of sweetness as a result of the honey and Spring44 water. "It's a mix of legacy the land of my father and this spring," explains Lindauer. "We're building a truly great American brand. And we're doing it authentically." Try an authentic vodka today!
