KETEL ONE
Ketel
One Vodka is made in Holland by the Nolet Distillery, established
in
1691 by the prominent Dutch Burgher, Joannes Nolet. Three centuries
and ten
generations later, Carl Nolet Snr continues his ancestor’s grand
Dutch
tradition of hand distillation, to create one of the world’s
super premium
vodkas.
Ketel One Vodka is distilled from 100% top grade wheat in alembic
copper pot
stills (hence the name ‘Ketel’). It is blended with pure
demineralised water
to give the spirit a strength of 40% abv, meticulously filtered over
loose
charcoal to remove residual impurities and to ensure a velvet smoothness
and
crystal clear clarity, before being rested in tile lined tanks.
A Citroen version is created using natural citrus fruit – the
peel from two
types of lemon from Sicily and Morocco, along with a dash of lime
peel – to
reveal a pleasant, tantalizing aroma and a delicate lemon flavour.
Ketel One Vodka has a very discreet character, ultra smooth, with
no after
taste. Consequently it lends itself naturally to numerous cocktails,
but
aficionados will say that its best served ice cold, sipped on its
own, or
served in a classic martini.
