Review: Y Town Vodka
Y Town Vodka is crafted from 100% pure cane sugar at Candella Micro-Distillery in Boardman Ohio. After a 30 year work career with stints in the telecommunications industry, aviation chartering, wedding photography, and television journalism, Bill Candella retired to golf and spend time with his family. After three months Bill needed a new challenge. His younger brother dared him to start crafting alcohol. In 2013 Bill founded Candella Micro-Distillery. They currently produce gin, rum, whiskey, brandy, black raspberry vodka, wine, and applejack. The nose leads with apple, caramel, vanilla, and banana. The sweet apple and vanilla entry builds to a bright banana apple peak. It fades with caramel and vanilla and finishes semi-dry with mineral, apple, sugar cookie, vanilla custard, anise, and bittersweet banana peel leaving a warm peppery sting.
