Vodka experiments
Vodka experiments will come later.
Current active work is focused on whisky and rum. This page is intentionally a holding note until vodka trials begin.
Vodka track / future scope
Vodka experiments are planned for a later phase.
This page is intentionally future-facing while the active research calendar stays focused elsewhere.
Current live research tracks are whisky and rum, where the team is still documenting fermentation behavior, cut strategy, wood influence, and process control before opening the vodka program.
- Planned baseline mapping of how different raw materials carry (or suppress) subtle character after high rectification.
- Planned comparisons of plate count and reflux control to define repeatable purity without stripping all structure.
- Planned dilution and finish trials to test where perceived cleanliness supports texture and where it turns neutral to flat.
Vodka preview
Future focus areas for vodka exploration
Rectification strategy to define
How many plates and what reflux intensity should be targeted to balance clean spirit with intentional raw-material nuance?
Priority question
Cut framework to establish
Which sensory markers and process checkpoints should set future heads and tails boundaries for a repeatable vodka profile?
Mouthfeel direction to explore
What role could dilution water, proofing tempo, and rest time play in shaping texture once vodka work begins?
Vodka is one chapter. Keep pushing the process.
