History,
A vodka’s quality will only ever be as good as its wheat, and its wheat will only ever be as quality as the hands who grow it. Sitting at approximately 7,000 above sea level in the Big Sky region of Montana, the farm has been family-owned and operated since 1905. Exuding heritage, tradition, and an unrivaled commitment to excellence, this is where Golden Eagle Vodka begins.
The red wheat varietals farmed here have been line-select bread exclusively in this region for, in some cases, hundreds of years. Several thousand acres of this unique red wheat are harvested yearly and can be found nowhere else in the world. Decades of systematic growing trials have resulted in the continuous growth of superior-quality wheat with a truly authentic character.
After harvest, the red wheat is transported, ground by a hammer mill, and prepared for the mash. Thereafter, it is met with Yellowstone spring water, America’s most pristine water source flowing from the Grand Teton’s, through the Yellowstone, into the Gallatin valley. Fueled by seasonal rain and cold mountain snowmelt, these waters are mineral-rich and oxygen-dense, indeed, a perfect pairing for the estate-grown red wheat.
Tasting Notes,
Nose: Sweet cream, vanilla, and toasted brioche bread
Palate: Full-bodied, yet subtly sweet, accompanied by toasted undertones
