Ketel One Botanical Peach & Orange Blossom (750Ml)

Description

Ketel One Botanical is a name deeply tied to the spirit we know as vodka. The brand proudly has roots in Schiedam, Holland - no wonder that bottles are designed to celebrate its heritage in mind. A combination of modern distilling techniques with the use of traditional copper pot stills makes their process unique, showing that they can embrace the practicality the future offers - only if it makes their product better.

On the nose, the first impression is ripe peach, not the candied or jammy kind, but the flesh of a fruit warmed by the sun, followed by a delicate orange blossom perfume that lifts the top notes and keeps the aroma from becoming one-dimensional. Beneath those primary impressions, there is a faint herbal whisper and a citrus zest that gives the spirit a bright, lively edge. The palate is soft and rounded, with the neutral backbone allowing the fruit and blossom to sit forward without being masked by heavy alcohol or oak. There is a gentle mouthcoating sweetness that reads as natural fruit sugars rather than added syrup, and the finish is clean and floral with a subtle peppery note that reminds you this is still a distilled spirit rather than a liqueur.

Market Watch Magazine awarded Ketel One Botanical's Peach & Orange Blossom the "Best New Spirits Product" title in 2019. SIP Awards also gave it a gold medal. It's one of the more 'natural' bottles when it comes to flavoring, achieving its peach and orange notes through natural fruit essences rather artificial flavors.
