Review: Two Brothers Citrus Vodka

Two Brothers Citrus Vodka was released March 2018.  It is crafted in Aurora Illinois in a former roundhouse that was constructed in 1856 to serve Aurora on the Chicago and Aurora Railroad.  Brothers Jim and Jason Ebel have been crafting Two Brothers Beer for 22 years.  They now also distill an expanding line of craft spirits.  Two Brothers Citrus Vodka is made from a 100% corn base.  The spirit is distilled in a 300 gallon hybrid three column 20 plate still.  The vodka only runs through the still once, but achieves the same amount of purification and distillation as 20 times through a standard one plate still.  Four types of citrus zest are muddled and steeped for one week.  The vodka is run through a loose filter to make sure they do not remove any color or flavor.  Nothing else is added to the vodka for color or flavor.

Review: Frankly Organic Grapefruit Vodka

Frankly Organic Grapefruit Vodka was launched June 2018 by Be in Good Spirits Co-Founders Philip Rock and Kent Croutcher.  It is one of five organically produced vodkas they craft in Texas.  The vodka base is made from organic corn sourced from family farms and is distilled five times and filtered twice.  Frankly Organic Grapefruit Vodka appears to hit all of the latest vodka trends.  No refined sugars, no gluten, no GMO’s, and no artificial colors, are added.  It’s certified organic by Oregon Tilth, its made with real fruit juice, and organic fruit and vegetable juice is added for color.  Frankly Organic Grapefruit Vodka even prints their entire ingredient list on the bottle.  That list reads organic corn vodka, organic ruby red grapefruit, organic apple, organic lemon juice, organic Ceylon cinnamon, organic maca root, organic grade A maple syrup, and natural flavors.
