Review: Hollywood Oasis Vodka

Hollywood Oasis Vodka is made from 100% organic Medjool dates grown locally in Coachella Valley California.  Hollywood Oasis was named the top vodka at the 2019 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.  The Hollywood Oasis Distillery was formed in 2016 by three businessmen Ferris Wehbe, Jeff Zarrinnam, and Larry Neuberg.  Each has a long history and ties to Hollywood California.  It appears their vodka is currently crafted at R6 Distillery in El Segundo California while their own distillery is being build on Santa Monica Boulevard in Los Angeles California.  Dates are native to the Middle East with 70% of the worlds production coming from Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Algeria, and Iraq.  In the US, dates are grown in Southern California, Arizona, and Southern Florida.  A quick look on Amazon shows you can purchase a 2 pound pack of Coachella Organic Dates for 14.99.  This may be the most expensive ingredient distilled in making a vodka.  Hollywood Oasis is distilled 20 times and bottled unfiltered.
