Review: Nadar Vodka

Nadar Vodka is the world’s first climate positive vodka.  It is made from peas grown on their farm.  Nadar is Gaelic for nature.  Peas capture all the nitrogen they need from the air and return it to the soil.  The Arbikie Distillery is a family run farm distillery.  It is the worlds first hydrogen powered distillery with a wind turbine, electrolyser, hydrogen storage, and a hydrogen boiler system.  The idea to build a distillery presented itself in a New York bar in 2010 when brothers David Stirling who co-owned a bar, Iain who started his career at Whyte & Mackay, and John an Accountant at KPMG hatched the idea to build a distillery on their 2000 family farm in Angus Scotland.  The Stirling family has been farming since 1660 and records show a distillery was on their farm as far back as 1794.  They built their distillery from an ancient barn.  They founded the distillery in 2013 and released their first spirit Tattie Bogle Potato Vodka in 2014.  Since then they have produced several gins, vodkas, and rye.  Nadar Vodka is distilled in a copper pot still followed by a 40 column distillation.
