Identifying Features

Silver-wrapped neck and cap with a blue ribbon wrapped around the base of the neck, affixed with a metal-looking stamp.

Written on the Bottle

Colorado Premium Vodka contains crystal clear water that was born from high atop the Colorado Rockies. For thousands of years, snow melt has filtered through sandstone to produce some of the worlds purest waters - water that makes Colorado Premium Vodka unique. Enjoy the pure taste of Colorado.

Review

When VodkaBuzz was still a twinkle in my eye, I took a visit to Colorado. My sister's friend from college, Katie, picked me up from the airport. We stopped at the liquor store in Breckenridge. Katie saw Colorado Premium Vodka and bought a bottle as a gift for my mom. My mom liked the look of the bottle so much that it became a fixture on the mantle. After two or so years, she finally decide to crack the bottle. Instead of doing the deed herself, she donated the bottle to VodkaBuzz to review.

The Shot

The shot is clean at first, though somehow disconcerting, and seems clean while it is in the mouth. After the swallow, it gets very bitter and begs for a chaser.

The Mixed Drink

I used Amp as mixer at about 3 parts Amp to 1 part Colorado Premium Vodka. The mix is pretty bitter, especially in the back of the mouth. The aftertaste follows the mouth taste by offering more of the same bitter. It almost needs a chaser for the mixed drink.

Opinions

Erin wasn't terribly impressed by Colorado Premium Vodka either. A reader sent Colorado Premium Vodka as a suggestion shortly before we did the review. He was impressed by it. So, I'm curious if something happened. I'll let the review stand for now, but I'll reevaluate it the next time I'm back in Summit County (unless anyone at Colorado Spirits wants to send us a newer bottle).

    Like I said in the post, I'm a little concerned that the bottle I had got contaminated. If you still have a contact at Colorado Spirits that's easy to get in touch with (don't go to any trouble, I mean), see if they'll get in touch with me via the the contact form at http://vodkabuzz.com/contact/ . If not, I'll have my folks bring another bottle back when they are in Colorado this March or April.

    I think Colorado Premium Vodka is the smoothest out there. My friends think it is, too.
    Did you ever get a fresh bottle?

    Unfortunately, the guy I was talking to couldn't get it arranged., and I forgot to ask my folks about it. So, no updates yet. It's still on the list, though!
